AMANDA Bynes has resurfaced on social media with a series of selfies and sketches.
The 34-year-old actress had been keeping a low profile for weeks after announcing she’d spent the last two months in a treatment facility.
Amanda explained back in May that she was working on her “social anxiety” and her course at the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising (FIDM).
And on Friday, the She’s The Man actress returned to Instagram with a black and white selfie showing off her nose piercing and heart face tattoo.
The star also shared a “collection of her favorite photographs”, which initially included a shirtless photo of her fiancé Paul Michael.
However, Amanda later deleted the photo of Paul and re-uploaded the series without him but still including some of her cryptic drawings.
One of the sketches showed a girl working out with weights alongside the words: “When this is over, what is the first thing you want to do? Work off the pandemic 15.”
Another sketch showed a girl wearing a jumper bearing the slogan FIDM Class Of 2022, who says, “Looking forward to dating someone left as opposed to social distancing left.”
Amanda last gave fans an update in May, telling them: “Getting my Bachelor’s degree from FIDM, taking online classes, trying to get a 4.0 GPA.”
She went on: “Looking forward to starting my online store in the future #goals. Spent the last 2 months in treatment.
“Worked on coping skills to help with my social anxiety that caused me to drop out of school months ago. Back on track and doing well!
“I’m now living in transitional living and doing therapy during the week.
“Still engaged to [the] love of my life Paul. Hope you’re all staying safe! Love y’all!”
The last time fans heard from the troubled star was when her lawyer revealed she was not expecting her first child with fiance, Paul Michael.
David Esquibias told The Sun: “Amanda is not pregnant and is not in treatment for any addiction.”
Her lawyer’s statement came after Amanda posted – and then deleted – a picture of a sonogram.
In March, Amanda’s former fiancé, Paul Michael, posted an identical announcement claiming his bride-to-be was pregnant with her first child alongside a picture of the baby’s sonogram and a selfie of the happy couple cuddling.
The sonogram featured the date March 17 and had Amanda’s full name on it.
The She’s The Man star was also seen at an OBGYN office with Paul and a female friend.
The Nickelodeon alum immediately liked the photo, but the couple deleted the posts shortly after.
Her lawyer also confirmed that the pair is still together and “remain close friends.”
The What a Girl Wants star had mostly stayed out of the public eye amid struggles with drugs and mental health until her surprising announcement on Instagram.
Paul gave an exclusive update to The Sun on Amanda’s condition and said she is currently in a residential treatment center for trauma.

He said: “She requested it due to trauma from her childhood that still affects her. She has been in treatment, but wanted to go to a center that took her insurance. That was the issue.
“Now she’s at a place that’s expensive but is better for trauma.”
Earlier in March, rumors began to swirl that the duo had broken up after Amanda deleted all of their photos together from her social media pages.
However, in the exclusive interview with The Sun, he claimed they never actually ended their engagement.
