Sources tell TMZ Britney's psychiatrist visited her tonight. As we first reported, she is under the daily care of a shrink who is giving her medicine for a bipolar disorder. The shrink was alarmed at her reckless driving and her conduct, and has decided Brit needs to be hospitalized on another 5150 hold -- meaning she is a danger to herself and others.
She has called for police who are en route. No one has entered the house yet.
Contrary to an online report, Britney has not tried to kill herself.
We're told Lynne Spears is at the house and is upset with the shrink. Sam Lutfi is in favor of the 5150, given Britney's mental state.
Britney is basically non-responsive about the whole thing -- out of it.
UPDATE: Alli Sims just arrived. We're told there is "extreme tension inside the house" between Sam Lutfi and members of Spears' family.

Michelle, I couldn't have said it any better. I've had my own criticism of this girl in the past because it was so sad to watch all that talent go down the drain. However, the people who don't see what is finally painfully obvious, that this woman is desperately mentally ill, must be so incredibly ignorant and completely heartless.
When oh when will Tom Cruise fly down in his Xenu suit and cape to save her from the evils of psychiatry ...
I laughed along with everyone else until I found out that she has mental problems. I hope somehow she can get the help she needs and becomes her real self again. Mental Illness is NO laughing matter. If you laugh at mentally ill you should also laugh at amputees and people having heart attacks (they are all diseases).
I think that Britney has become another Luka Magnotta
i'm glad she'll get some help. What's lynne's problem? I thought this was good news.
Usually illiterate people have no clue of EVER what is going on.....and that would include Brit....that idiot....that has somewhere around a 5th grade education.......or less. Brit is illiterate.....are WE all clear about that now???? she is dumber than a trailer park whore.....
