Britney Spears' Curious Social Media Behavior Has Fans Concerned

Britney Spears seems to be enjoying her newfound freedom after the conservatorship that kept her person and estate under the control of her father, Jamie Spears, was dissolved in November. Despite the end of the conservatorship, Spears' fight for justice continues as she goes after her father and former management company, Tri Star Sports & Entertainment Group, for money she claims were stolen from her over the years, Variety reported. In a now-deleted Instagram post, Spears wrote, per Newsweek, "honestly it still blows my mind ... how my family and the conservatorship were able to do what they did to me ... it was demoralizing and degrading !!!!"

In the meantime, Spears keeps her fans updated on the day-to-day goings-on of her life via her Instagram account. In a post ahead of the ruling to end the conservatorship, Spears expressed fear she would "make a mistake" and get forced to stay in it. She lamented that she would have to be careful about what she posts on social media to avoid potential repercussions.

Because the conservatorship was supposedly set up due to concerns about the "Toxic" singer's mental health, the public has been extra-attentive to Spears' behavior since she achieved her freedom. And now it's clear to many she is no longer fearful of what she shares with the public, even if some fans might find her social media posts a bit curious.

Britney Spears posted a new video to social media site Instagram on December 3, acting out a parody skit that mocked the therapists she was allegedly forced to see during her 13-year conservatorship. The video featured the "Gimme More" artist switching back and forth between herself and an imitation of a mental health professional and included plenty of intense language and profanity, giving viewers insight into the anger she still harbors from that part of her life. In the accompanying caption, Spears explained how she spent "10 hours a day, 7 days a week" in therapy allegedly against her will. She also stated that now that her "medication is working," she no longer needs therapy. At the end of the caption, she directed the therapists to "KISS MY MOTHER F***ING A** !!!!!"

This isn't the first time the "Womanizer" singer's behavior has turned heads since being granted her freedom from the conservatorship. In a separate Instagram post, Spears revealed that she was experimenting with fasting and had experienced "the most amazing high," adding that the most she's gone without eating was four days. The pop star has also raised concern after posting various topless and nude snaps to her Instagram page. In one post, fans pointed out that the photo appeared to be taken off of a computer screen rather than taken live, as Spears claimed in her caption.

Of course, onlookers can't determine how Spears is doing based on social media posts alone, and to the star's credit, it doesn't seem she's paying her naysayers any mind.
