Can you believe it"s been five years since Amanda Bynes first began her downward spiral?!
It"s true: in April of 2012, Amanda got her first DUI, which set off a series of bizarre events.
After the first DUI, she had a few more car-related incidents, and it wasn"t long after that that she began her infamous Twitter rants.
She asked Drake to murder her vagina, she called a number of celebrities "ugly," she shaved her head.
It was a long, crazy ride that came to an end when Amanda set a fire in someone"s driveway and nearly torched her dog as well.
She was placed on a psychiatric hold, and remained hospitalized for months.
Reports claimed that she"d been diagnosed as bipolar and schizophrenic, and though she"s definitely had some setbacks, she"s been relatively quiet for the past few years.
Until now!
Amanda just did a brand new interview with Hollyscoop — her first in four years.
"I"m doing great," she says about her current state. "Really great."
"I"ve been going to school lately, fashion school, FIDM [the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising], and I love it. I"ve learned how to sew, I make patterns, and I want to start a clothing line in the future."
"Other than that," she continues, "I hike, I go spinning, take spinning classes, and I feed the homeless, and that"s been really interesting and fun."
As for her acting career, she says she misses it — so much that she"s going to start working again!
"I want to do TV," Amanda explains, "maybe a few guest spots on some shows that I"m a fan of, and maybe another TV show where I"m the star of it, in the future."
While that"s wonderful news, and while it really does look like she"s doing much better these days, she also touches on some darker moments from her past.
For instance, that time that she asked Drake to murder her vagina.
"I actually wasn"t being insincere," she says of her request. "I was, like, saying "murder my vagina." I was serious, but I was also on drugs."
"So that was my way of saying, like, "Let"s do it, man!" But I was on drugs and trying to be hilarious."
When asked what exactly murdering a vagina entails, she responds with "What does that even mean? It just means, like "F-ck me, Drake.""
Oh, Amanda, how we"ve missed you.
She goes on to dish about more wild times from all those years ago — she even admits that with her cheek piercings and colorful wigs, she totally stole Blac Chyna"s look.
She also says that even though she once tweeted that Zac Efron has an ugly face, he"s actually 100% hot.
