The Bynes family is said to have encouraged the former actress to seek professional help, which she has refused to take, reported Radar Online.
"Amanda has heard voices for years, and was concerned she was being spied on via smoke alarms, and clocks in her home. She would cover electronic items because Amanda believed that was the only way she would not be spied on. It's extremely sad situation because Amanda just refuses to get help," a source said.
The 27-year-old's parents also consulted with several lawyers in hopes of getting a conservatorship for their troubled daughter.
