Amanda Bynes was reportedly released from a mental health facility almost a month after she was found roaming the streets of Los Angeles naked.
The actress, 37, was discharged on Monday after being cleared by the medical staff, TMZ reported.
She is now expected to start outpatient treatment. However, she will remain in her home in an effort to maintain her independence.
The update comes just a few days after sources told the outlet that Bynes wasn’t being “forced to stay” at the facility but didn’t feel “ready to leave” yet.
“Those around her are already formulating a plan to make sure she stays on the right path,” the report read.
The “Amanda Show” alum’s attorney did not immediately return Page Six’s request for comment.
Earlier this month, Bynes suffered a psychiatric episode which led her to live “on the streets for days.”

At the time, eyewitnesses told TMZ that the actress had flagged down a vehicle for help while wandering the streets without her clothes. She was then placed on a 72-hour psychiatric hold.
While the initial hold only lasted three days, it was later extended so that Bynes could focus on “getting better” in the mental health facility.
Bynes’ ex-fiancé, Paul Michael, then told Page Six that the former child star had been “off her meds” prior to the incident.
Over a year ago, the “She’s The Man” star — who was previously diagnosed with bipolar disorder and has also struggled with substance abuse issues — was freed from her eight-year conservatorship under her mother, Lynn.
Despite her recent psychiatric episode, Bynes’ parents are not considering another conservatorship, reportedly calling the situation an “anomaly.”
