Amanda Bynes chilled on a hot summer day as she hung out with a few friends at a pool in the Studio City district of Los Angeles on Monday.

The 29-year-old actress didn't appear to have a care in the world as she took selfies standing in the cool water.

The petite beauty showed off her stunning body in a mismatched bikini with a neon yellow strapless top and tiny blue bottoms.

She tied her blonde hair back into a pony tail then wrapped it up to shorten the length and covered it with a cap. With her dark glasses covering her eyes, Amanda was ready to relax. 

 Amanda has laid low for a few months after being hospitalized and put on a psychiatric hold in 2014 regarding mental health issues. She is understood to be suffering from schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.

She has since been making a gradual return to the public eye, and on July 23 she attended her first public party since her meltdown.

The actress was spotted leaving a launch party for Project Runway star's Michael Costello's capsule range in Los Angeles.

The star was previously seen in June enjoying a quiet lunch at celebrity restaurant Craig's in West Hollywood. 

Her mother Lynn has conservatorship over the star including her finances and medical needs since filing court documents in July 2013 in which Lynn described Amanda 'as a substantial risk to herself, to others and to property.' 

Amanda was catapulted to stardom on Nickelodeon's series All That, which bowed in 1994 and ran for 10 seasons before ending in 2005. She then launched a successful movie career with roles in She's The Man opposite Channing Tatum, Hairspray and Canned.

Although her mental health appears to be better, Amanda has yet to pick up her career. She hasn't made a film since Easy A with Emma Stone in 2010.
