Amanda Bynes enrolls at fashion school following mental health treatment

Los Angeles - Amanda Bynes has enrolled in at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising.

The troubled actress has reportedly become confident, makes presentations to her class and interacts freely with her classmates since studying at the prestigious university based in Orange County, California.

Amanda's studious attitude comes after she completed psychiatric treatment for both schizophrenia and bipolar disorder in December.

Sources close the 27-year-old star told TMZ.com that her treatment is going well, and she is in the process of removing a number of inappropriate tattoos in addition to giving up smoking marijuana.

Amanda is also said to be "horrified" by crude comments she made about Drake last year when she said she wanted the rapper to ''murder my vagina'' on Twitter, which is claimed to show her resurgence of right and wrong.

Meanwhile, the Hairspray actress reached a plea deal in her driving under the influence (DUI) case on Monday after her lawyer managed to get the charges from 2012 dropped so she could plead no contest to a lesser charge of alcohol-related reckless driving.

Although Amanda escaped jail and a fine, she will undergo three years of probation and must attend three months of alcohol education classes.
