Britney Released!

Britney SpearsBritney Spears has been released from the psychiatric ward at UCLA Medical Center, the L.A. Times is reporting.

According to the paper, Spears slipped quietly out -- compared to the massive fanfare that went on the night she went in.

A law enforcement source tells TMZ the hospital let her go "because she was no longer required to stay there after 11:30 AM." We have not confirmed this independently, however, if the hospital decides Britney is no longer a danger to herself or others, the hospital loses its basis to hold her against her will.

OMG-I almost fell out of my chair when I saw this. I swear, if I see one pic of her with that Sam or Adnan, I am going to write her ass off and say AMF.

Guggerballs - that made no sense. I'm here for the obvious reasons - i like this site, i like reading this garbage, but seriously, just like your pinata theory, it's as if this situation is like beating a dead horse already.. she's sick - she was in the best hospital in the world, and people continue to look and make excuses for her - she doesnt even make excuses for herself, so why blame her or wish bad on someone so much? i'm not saying everything has to be Peopleish and all happy with roses, but for real, it's the same sh&t everyday, it takes the fun out of blogging anymore..

Only in California. God help any poor schmuck who gets in her path on the road. What is WRONG with those people? Who in their right mind would release her? Even a 14-day hold was insufficient, given her potential for disaster.

I thought they were holding her until the 14th? I thought they classified her as "gravely disabled"? They fixed that in just a few days? Riiight.

I was born at UCLA Medical Center and I always recommend them for health care but I think they just made a big mistake. This is going to be a mess. I don't even want to think about what could happen now.

Dear Precious Britany....our darling sleeping beauty....please wake up from your slumber. Here is a good suggestion:
8 a.m. rise and shine, eat a good breakfast
8:30 a.m. go for a walk and pray
10:00 a.m. work out time with a trainer for 2 hours
12:30 a good healthy lunch
2 P.M. go shopping or whatever for fun...maybe a daily massage like Bob Hope...he lived to 100!!!!!
6P.M. a good dinner
rest every evening ....get to bed early
"Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy wealthy and wise..."
Keep this up for a year and you will be restored...body, mind and spirit....
I pray for you everyday.....you do your part and I will do my part....bringing you up before The Lord for blessings....

i hope and pray, that she, britney and her family have the foresight to move her to a safer place and extended place to help her continue to progress positively and with all the time she fully needs to get herself back to as normal as possible, out and away from media and those who would harm her if they could, like aka sam lutfi for one and or others.
