Amanda Bynes has sparked some major concern with a video posted to social media.

In a video originally shared on Instagram, Amanda, 38, recorded herself while sitting in the back of a car, reports The Sun.

In the video, the former Hollywood actress shows off her long black hair complete with short chopped bangs.

The Easy A star also has heart face tattoo and a septum piercing.

Her lips appeared extremely swollen lips and she was wearing a white T-shirt.

“Green-eyed girl,” she captioned the seconds-long clip.

Over the years, Amanda has had some tough times after growing up as a child actor in the limelight.

In 2012 she was arrested for a DUI and she was put under a conservatorship from 2014 to 2022.

She has also spent time in a mental health facility and claims to have been abused by her father.

‘Wishing her peace and happiness’

The video was reuploaded on X, where fans shared their concern for Amanda.

“So sad to see what Hollywood does to so many young stars,” one wrote.

A second added, “I wish her peace and happiness.”

“I feel so bad for her,” stated a third.

Someone else said: “Incredibly heartbreaking.”

A fifth said: “Leave her alone. She’s just existing in life and not hurting anyone.

Don’t hurt her further.”

“She deserves all our support,” a sixth encouraged.

Moving forward

Despite her struggles, Amanda has recently been determined to get her manicurist license.

In 2018, the former movie star attended and graduated from the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising but decided not to go down that road.

In 2022, she announced that she was headed to cosmetology school.

Unfortunately, Amanda revealed that she did not pass her manicurist license exam.

In a now-deleted update posted to her Instagram originally shared last week, she said, “Since I haven’t passed the board exam yet to get my manicurist license I started back at school to study manicurist theory and to practice doing acrylics before I take the test again so I’ll be good to go when I get a job at a nail salon.”

The last time Amanda was spotted in public was last week when she was running errands in Los Angeles, California.

The former Nickelodeon star was seen wearing a blue top and beige shorts with a black crossbody bag.
