After leaving court, stopping by the Little Brown Church to pray, and grabbing a bite to eat, Britney Spears finally went back to her home where she is safe and sound. While she did all of that, the Commissioner ruled that she will not have her visitation rights restored and that this decision will not change until the next hearing on February 19.
The decision was made after the testimonies of two LAPD cops who were present on the events of January 4th; Lisa Hacker, a parenting coach; Loni Jones, a bodyguard, and Pamela Strong, the court monitor who was also present. Mark Vincent Kaplan, K-Fed’s attorney, also testified.
Just look at those adorable innocent babies. The Commish’s decision has gotta hurt. Britneeeyyy, get help girlfriend.

Yes, but will Britters be alive to attend the Feb. 19th hearing?
Considering what happened today i don’t think so. It’s pretty obvious to me that she does care for her boys at all. I think they would be better off in the care of someone who ACTUALLY cares about them.
doesn’t. sorry spelling error.
As a mom of two boys, I simply want to hug and kiss those two little guys; she simply does not deserve to be anywhere near them until she gets help.
At the age of 21, I refused to get treatment for my anxiety/panic attack disorder until I broke down completely and was carted away in an ambulance in front of my then 3 and 2 year old boys. It was the frightened look on their precious little faces as some strangers took their mommy away that I decided to take care of myself in order to take care of them.
I’m sorry to hear about your ordeal, but you’re right. Most people would take being carted away in an ambulance to the hospital as a major wake up call and they would get the help they need. I’m glad to hear you made the decision to take care of yourself (I have panic/anxiety disorder, too, for what it’s worth; mine’s been under control for many years, and yes, it took a major wake up call for me to start to take it seriously, too).
i don’t think she has a panic disorder; i think she has full blown manic-depression that is at full tilt at this point. this isn’t just a silly, spoiled child- this is a seriously mentally ill young woman who wants to be a good mother but simply cannot right now.
I agree with that. But in order to be the good mother she wants to be, she needs a tremendous amount of not only medical and psychiatric treatment, she needs parenting classes.
.
Unfortunately, I think that the chances that she will ever actually get that sort of help are very, very slim. This is not me “hating” her, it’s just based on observation and a working knowledge of mental illness and disorders.
when all this started, i thought for sure that when she faced the fact that she might lose her boys, she would come around and do the things she needed to get them back in her life. instead, she has done everything to make sure they are not let back into her life. how could a mother that has seen those two beautiful faces just let them go without a fight. all this running around to different places, with all these different guys, i’m afraid will come back to haunt her when they are old enough to see what’s gooing on.
So you want to force Britney to take care of children that she doesn’t want? Millions of parents abandon their children every year and they aren’t forced to get treatment. Many more parents conform to peer pressure and are miserable and damage their children trying to do the right thing. No one would think twice about this if it wasn’t Britney. She’s an immature adult who was lied to and controlled for many years and obviously she doesn’t want anyone telling her what to do now. That doesn’t make her crazy. She is not required to conform to our standards. However, she has never been held responsible for her actions because she is Britney. Saying she is crazy is just another way of excusing her actions when what she really needs is to be held responsible for them. I’m sure she knew the probable result of not going into that court today and yet she made that decision. Let her live with it. She will never be “normal” until she feels she has some control over her own life.
Montana Mike, you hit the nail on the head. Those gorgeous kids WILL see what has been hapening, and that will only make it worse for the boys and Britney. I want to cry for those children. One day they will see all of this, and wonder why their mommy didn’t love them enough to show up to court and fight tooth and nail to get them back. It is very heartbreaking.
Crying and praying for the kids, and britney, is a nice sentiment, but it won’t do any of them any good. It’s in the hands of the parents and the courts now…

She’s apparently on Prozac, which can be absolutely disasterous in the wrong hands, and can even mimic bipolar. Or maybe she’s prescribed it but isn’t taking it. Also disasterous. Who knows. What I DO know is that it was early 2004 (february 13th apparently) when she was seen with the book “Listening to Prozac”. So I would assume she’s been on it from then (possibly excluding her pregnancies). Not to sound all Tom Cruise-ish, but I’ve seen other people have similar experiences. In some people antidepressants cause far more problems than they solve.
And she was photgraphed at the same time with a bottle of prozac. But if she was on that she shouldn’t have been drinking as heavily as she did last year. Anyway, some of these antidepressants, especially when taken over a long period of time, can cause as much harm to the body as good. Which is why it’s important to get therapy while you take them, which is plain as day Brit has not done.
Prozac is a very BAD drug for people with actual bipolar disorder. For depression, yes, it can help, and has helped millions. For bipolar mood swings, Prozac is absolutely not the right drug, and it can make the mood swings far worse.
.
The problem is, it’s fairly easy to diagnose depression, but it’s much more difficult to diagnose mania, unless the doctor actually sees the mania in progress. I would have thought she was manic when admitted to Cedars Sinai, but perhaps she presented as more psychotic or something…
.
Then again, even if the doctors at Cedars Sinai did prescribe a more appropriate medication (lithium, for example), there’s no reason to think Britney would actually take it.
“absolutely disasterous” is the best way to describe every decision that britney has made in the past year. The only way you could improve upon it is adding “…and getting worse”.
SO RECAP: WHAT HAS BRITNEY LOST SO FAR?
Her physical health, her mental health, her family, her friends, her management, her marriage, her children, her career, and one by one……HER FANS:
http://www.hollywood.com/ibb/posts.aspx?postID=285269
Her dignity, her sex appeal, her hair, her car (has she gone and gotten it out of impound yet?)…
when kelly are you going to get it through your stupid fucking head that she is sick and she is barely functioning right now.
are you getting some kind of personal satisfaction out of this ?
pls go seek help with your obsession here.
I was one of the first people on this blog to realize she had a mental illness, so STFU.
It is the celeb worship that enables her, and adds to the problem. Point is, she won’t have that for very long if she continues to selfishly put her sex life in front of getting help to take care of her children…and her fans are saying just that. Go read it for yourself.
I’ve said for months that she’s mentally ill, and I even said it was bipolar disorder.
.
Newsflash: Britney KNOWS she has a problem. She has been in lockdown in the psych ward, there is NO WAY she can be unaware of the issues. Mental illness does not suck your brain out of your skull, and she is not so stupid that she doesn’t know there’s a REAL PROBLEM, but she doesn’t want to get help for it.
.
For most people, being put in lockdown is a wakeup call. For others, losing their kids would be. Britney doesn’t wake up no matter what happens to her, it seems. People think she’s going to hit rock bottom, but it appears she hasn’t got a rock bottom to hit!
.
I have loads of compassion for the mentally ill. I have very little pity for those who refuse to help themselves in ANY WAY, however, and it appears that Britney is one of those people. Her arrogance overrides everything else in her life.
.
Oh, and this is a woman who claims she would “do anything” for her kids, but apparently, getting help for her mental illness isn’t one of the things she’d do…
.
Compassion, yes. Pity? No way. She doesn’t deserve pity (despite being pitiful). She deserves compassion, and prayers, maybe, but it’s complete crap to pity her when SHE KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM and refused to help herself in ANY WAY.
“Britney KNOWS she has a problem. She has been in lockdown in the psych ward, there is NO WAY she can be unaware of the issues. Mental illness does not suck your brain out of your skull, and she is not so stupid that she doesn’t know there’s a REAL PROBLEM, but she doesn’t want to get help for it.”

Well said. I think it may be that she knows that once she gets treatment, and goes away for a while, she knows that the whold world would know she has issues (like we don’t already!), and she doesn’t want the world to know. She thinks that everyone will lose interest in her, and the paps wouldn’t follow her around anymore, no one would take her picture, and she wouldn’t have all the attention on her. She is afraid to admit it. JMO
“…Mental illness does not suck your brain out of your skull…
.
hehehe, I bet britney is trying that with Adnan right now, in a manner of speaking.
i don’t buy that she was scared of the papparazi to get into the courthouse bull crap. she is hounded by them all the time. she should have pushed them to get into the doors of the courthouse. she was fighting for her babies. she should have been in that courtroom testifying on why she went nuts last thursday. i can’t beleive it, yet she has time to go to church and go to drugstores kissing adnan all over the place. she deserves this…
Thankyou. She is not scared of the paps when she wants to feed her face, shop, or flash her mug all over the place. I don’t care of there were more there or not, this was one last chance to prove at least a little bit that she still wants to see her kids. I find it particularly amusing that her pap boyfriend gets mad at the other paps, hypocrisy, no? This ordeal has gone to levels I didn’t even think possible, dating a fucking pap now? Actually, that speaks volumes.
Well said Carrie.
.
That whole “let me in the car because I’m scared” thing was a pre-planned ploy for sympathy and ANOTHER ATTEMPT BY BRITNEY TO SET THE TRIAL ON HER TERMS.
.
She was thinking the judge would act like a fantard and blame the paps for everything, but judges spend years in debate, law school, and on the bench training their minds, whereas the fantard only trains his wrist twice a day in front of a six year old poster of britney while simultaneously crying and screaming at his mom “I SAID I’LL BE DOWN FOR DINNER IN A COUPLE OF MINUTES!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Granted, I’m something of a narcissist, but that has to be one of the best ones yet.
.
Adam, you should ask Jordan for permission to remove your face from his crotch so you can read that one, BECAUSE IT WAS ALL ABOUT YOU, FANTARD!!! THERE’S ONLY TWO FANTARDS LEFT AND IF YOU QUIT MAKING EXCUSES FOR BRITNEY LONG ENOUGH TO USE YOUR NEGLECTED MENTAL CAPACITY FOR SOMETHING OTHER THAN ATTACKING BRITNEY’S CRITICS YOU’D SEE THAT JORDAN, THE WIMPY, OVERLY-PROTECTED, FANTASY-PRONE MAMMA’S BOY HAS MADE YOU HIS B*TCH!!!!!! AND THAT ISN’T EXACTLY A COMPLIMENT YOU FOOL!!!!!!
.
I just can’t help it, it’s so easy, and Adam gives me so much material to work with. Anyway, back to the commentary. carrie says:
.
“…kissing adnan all over the place…”
.
Do you mean britters kissing him in various geographic locations throughout California, or simply all over Adnan? I’d be willing it’s both, and I really DON’T want to see what she is doing with those lollipops…..
.
“…she deserves this…”
.
YES SHE DOES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
getting help cuz she does not believe she has a problem, yeah the hospital, etc etc etc etc, everything, she is in denial. there is no explanation besides the fact that she is mentally ill. that is part of the illness.
my mother is diagnosed schizophrenic, she was in her psychosis phase for almost 8 years, it was 8 years of hell. brit has the same behaviours as my mother does. when she decides she does not need her meds anymore, it is like dealing with a child.
i had to once pick her up from a 7 11 store that she went to everyday, but this day she walked there naked. her reason; ” i forgot to get dressed “.
Denial is not necessarily part of mental illness. Plenty of people who are mentally ill will accept the wake up call that they need to take their medication or do whatever it is they need to do in order to manage their illness.
.
People who are NOT mentally ill live in denial, too. It’s a choice people make, mentally ill or not.
yes denial is part of mental illness. denial is a defense. yes ppl will accept the wake up call cuz that is their rock bottom, but brit is no where near rock bottom. she now has adnan.
yes, ppl who are not mentally ill are in denial cuz of embarrassment, being labelled, etc etc etc, again a defense mechanism.
what is brits rock bottom ? i think to send her into another 5150 where she can be forced to get help, is for everyone to ignore her. everyone. no cameras, nothing, that will send her into a tizzy.
she is definately histronic.
For anyone else this might have been rock bottom a long time ago. For Britney, who knows….but I’ve said she’s playing limbo on her death bed. Not everyone accepts a wake-up call.
Denial is a defense mechanism, and we all ahve defense mechanisms. It’s when your life becomes controlled by these defense mechanisms that the problems start.
I too, have felt that she has histrionic personality disorder, which explains her attention seeking. But what is a personality disorder? Think of what the word personality means to you. It’s something rigid, and unchanging over time. Personality disorders become so much of who that person is, that they may literally not know there is a problem.
Unfortunately pride, and conceit, wealth and celebrity worship have cushioned Brit’s butt so she does not have to pay attention to the wake up calls.
Your opinion that Brit needs to be ignored by everyone to get better is well taken. At the very least, she needs every one to quit enabling her antics, quit applauding her behvaior, quit making excuses for her. As I said in a post above, people are slowly catching on to that. Her fans could forgive her and understand a mental illness…if she sought treatment. But this running around with papz while asking us to believe that the papz are responsible for her waning career, and shopping sprees in public view while she is claiming to be too scared of the papz to enter the court building…..these are mistakes she never should have made if she wanted the celeb worship to continue. Her fans are wising up tot he truth that Brit does not want to see.
Histrionic is a possibility. So is Borderline Personality Disorder (I think it’s got another official name now, Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder).
.
My honest take on it is that Britney’s life has put her in a position of being basically a poorly educated child in the body of a very rich young adult. She doesn’t appear to have normal decision making abilities, and she doesn’t appear to be terribly smart. She’s like a twelve year old, all tantrums and hormones and drama. She’s also used to being the Princess, commanding people to do her bidding, and they would.
.
Now take an immature and poorly formed personality like that and add in a biological mood disorder like bipolar (manic-depression, it used to be called). The result is basically what we’re seeing. An arrogant young woman who refuses to do what anyone tells her, who refuses to see that people are trying to help her, who will not act on her own behalf because she’s not experienced enough to realise that being taken to the hospital and locked in the psych ward is not normal, not usual, and was actually for her own good.
.
Until and unless she wakes up, SOMEHOW, she’s never going to get any better. I have the unfortunate suspicion that Britney Spears is going to end up being a huge cautionary tale and a metaphor, something along the lines of the Titanic…
“My honest take on it is that Britney’s life has put her in a position of being basically a poorly educated child in the body of a very rich young adult.”
“Now take an immature and poorly formed personality like that and add in a biological mood disorder like bipolar (manic-depression, it used to be called). The result is basically what we’re seeing.”
EXACTLY.
Or we could just say “SHE’S REALLY F*CKED UP!!”
Denial is not NECESSARILY part of mental illness. SOME mentally ill people live in perpetual denial, but plenty of people who are NOT mentally ill are also in denial.
.
Denial is a choice. You can choose to believe your own version of things and make up excuses for everything and take no responsibility for yourself or your life, or you can choose to listen to others and start acting responsibly. It’s as simple as that.
.
And yeah, I do know what I’m talking about.
She should have got her ass in there. But i don’t know what was going through her mind at that point to think “ok, i’m hear now, wasted all this time just to turn back”. She should have waited for some more security to hlp her, coz that press coverage was crazy. In the video, she’s getting ragged by adnan, on press guy and some other. I hope she lives to the next hearing, and that she wises up. Not to prove haters wrong because they will hate no matter what, just to get your life back.
Mabye, this is just a possibility i’m not saying believe it, she knew that what she had to say wouldn’t have made a difference because what the witnesses were saying was true. Doesn’t explain it actually lol 4get about it now. i’m gna go live.
Thank goodness! This woman needs help, and those children are not safe around her until she gets the help she needs. She didn’t want to testify to her own crazy behavior, prob becasue the judge would commit her to a mental hospital, where she belongs. TMZ said this morning that the judge now understands it wasn’t substance abuse like he origianlly thought, but it is her mental health that is the issue. I hope that if she does show up to court today, I heard it will go into today, the judge will have her commited, and she gets on some “happy pills” that make her act like a normal human who is fighting for the rights to her 2 adorable children. That picture of Sean and Jayden is the cutest. Poor kids.
*
And to anyone still saying Kevin is just after money, I would like to give these quotes, from Kevin’s attorney, from an AOL article I read…..
*
“The word victory is not something Mr. Federline or his counsel would ascribe to this. There is no joy. This is a grave situation for all,” Kaplan said.
*
Although Federline thought the ruling was correct, Kaplan said, “his goal, his hope for the future is at some point he will be able to parent the children with the participation of their mother.”
*
That to me sounds like a very concerned and upset father who wants his chilren’s mother to be sane and be able to be in the children’s lives. My opinion of Kevin changes everyday for the better. He seems to have matured into a great father, and who has sincere concern for his ex-wife.
worst case with brit.
she will give up all rights to her kids, marry adnan, and have more kids.
dont beat me up about this, but i would not be surprised if she does this.
I was thinking the same thing. And then Adnan will divorce her, and she will be in the same sitch with him, don’t ya think?
“…Adnan will divorce her, and she will be in the same sitch with him…”
.
No, because britney will buy him out AND TRADE EXCLUSIVE STORY AND PICTURE RIGHTS FOR HIM DROPPING ALL CLAIMS AS A FATHER!!!! THATS JUST HOW EVIL AND SELFISH THESE PEOPLE ARE!!!!!!!!!
Nothing a little bit of anal love wouldn’t fix.
“I remember the tunnel as it appeared on the news, lit by headlights, flashlights, red lights. Between the cement tall pillars was a heap of twisted metal. I saw it then, and I can see it now. Diana dead.
She will be trying to get away, but they will chase her, just as they chased her into that church yesterday. There were dozens of them, jostling their way into sanctuary, elbowing past each other, just to creep closer to her. Even her last-minute, folded-hand prayers can’t be kept sacred. There can be no silent moments in a crowd; no silence, and no secrets.
All this fresh, painful frailty costs her so much, but it lines their pockets very well. A kings ransom was paid for those tabloid-ready cheap shots of her with messy hair, tear-soaked eyes, and the half-smile of a desperate baby girl.
“I’m scared,” she told them yesterday, when they later mobbed her at court. “Move back,” she said. “I’m scared. Stop it. Stop it. I want to get back in the car. Just stop it. Let me get in the car, please.”
Sometimes it really is too much. Internal wires cross. Anxiety hits. Panic sets in the heart. Dread. Fear.
But she asked for it, she’s a public figure.
At eight years old, she bravely stood before a microphone. By 17, she had sold 25 million records. Where were the sidewalk-skinned knees, the chalk stained hands, the monkey bars, the passed notes? A Disney set is not a childhood, no matter how many bright colors they use, or how cheerful the script.
Not a girl, barely even a woman yet, they chased her. A mob of stalkers for whom no stalking laws have been written. Smother. Crush. Flash. Photo Credit. Even Dr. “Get Real” Phil got in on the action. Unreal.
83 million albums sold so far. How many pictures?
The tunnel is crowded now. There are only inches of separation between vulnerability and disaster.”
- Rosie Odonnell’s kind words about Britney on her official website.
Yeah dude, we have this thing called bookmarks…and we use them to visit other blogs…..no need to repost them in entirety here….just sayin’…
naked babies girls…
How does the rss feed work so I can get updated on your blog?…
