HIGHLIGHTS:
TMZ reports that the troubled young star has been placed on a 5150 “psychiatric hold” by doctors in Los Angeles, in consultation with her family and legal representatives.
A 5150 hold lasts for 72 hours but can be extended for 14 days, the site reported.
Earlier, Bynes accused her father, Rick, of verbal, physical and sexual abuse before taking it all back and saying the microchip in her brain made her do it.
The troubled former child star, 27, made the bombshell accusations in a series of tweets, The New York Post reports.
“My dad was verbally and physically abuse [sic] to me as a child,” she wrote.
Shortly after, she accused him of asking her for sex and fondling himself in front of her, and described living with him as “a total nightmare.”
However, she then tweeted that her dad never abused her — but saying that he implanted a microchip in her brain.
