It's really sad what happened with Amanda. She had amazing comedic timing and a gift for entertaining people as a kid. But her parents didn't protect her, and she ended up getting exploited like basically every other child star does.

Amanda had all the wealth and opportunities in the world but she screwed it all up with dope. Her family has said she’s never been diagnosed with mental illness.

[@surft]

Amanda didn't have a good relationship with the cast of her own show, as indicated by an interview with one of her castmates. Maybe coupled with mental illness, she didn't have a good personality as well.

[@saulthechicanootaku]

@@surft I bet when Miranda Cosgrove asked Josh or Drake (who also has his fair share of issues) about how it was like working for Amanda, she probably felt uneasy but glad she never worked with her, which reminds me, do you think Miranda felt bad for playing such an unlikable character like Megan?

The poor girl is battling mental health issues that are far outside of her control and she really did nothing to cause this other than her parents putting her on TV. I really wish that she would be left alone, at least until she decides whether or not she wants to come back to Hollywood on purpose. She is a very creative person and is an amazing actress who actually holds an award for being the youngest person to ever hold their own variety show or talk show, and she deserves to be remembered for those reasons rather than people focusing on her bipolar disorder and PTSD.

[@Unfortunately_Mickey]

[@rainingwhenidie]

Seriously. Everyone who turns to drugs (and I mean *everyone* ), has an underlying reason. Drugs are a very effective coping mechanism. They work immediately and only start showing problems once you're in an active addiction. Drugs didn't cause her to spiral, but they certainly didn't help. I wish that people would be more sympathetic to addicts because it can happen to anyone under the right circumstances. I hope Amanda's doing well and will be able to live a stable, happy life.

[@squanchysquanch1840]

@@averysspookshowspectacular6205 there are half-way houses, sober living homes, shelters etc. there are folks who take care of vulnerable people. Like I said, having family do this is probably the main viable option, but isn’t an option for everyone. And I don’t think family members should be forced to take care of mentally ill adults. My older brother is mentally disabled due to drug overdoses, my best friend in high school was emancipated by his parents at 17 and went schizophrenic due to meth use. He is still living on the streets as far as I know. These issues are very relevant to me, so I certainly have compassion for folks going through things like this, but there’s no easy solution. Ofc it would be nice to house everyone and have folks look after them, but we don’t live in a utopia and human nature shows us that often times these people are taken advantage of or treated poorly by their caretakers, even by their own family sometimes. So I don’t think there’s really a valid solution that has been discovered, at least not yet. I don’t think socializing these issues would be effective, even if we did have the resources to do so. It’s easy to go on about how terrible and sad it is, it’s an entirely other thing to figure out an effective solution.

Cases like Amanda make you wonder if being a star actor at a young age is actually worth it. On the surface the money, opportunities, fame & all the perks of achieving stardom so young seems to instantly make it seem well worth it & a extremely desirable postion but it seems there's a very high probability of self destruction caused by the seedy entertainment industry & it's extremely shady reputation along with losing your privacy, growing up in the public eye where any mistakes you make is put under a microscope for the world to see & judge or the inevitable paranoia you would get about the intentions of the people you meet & surround yourself with not to mention fearing the higher possibility of attracting obsessive mentally unstable "fans" the more popular you become which would make anyone feel uneasy & feel the need to have your guard up at all times.
