(Xinhua/Reuters Photo)The intoxicated singer was taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center by paramedics Thursday night after police were called to her home because of a dispute involving the two sons she had with Kevin Federline. The dispute ended in a fit of hysterics by the troubled pop star.
Britney was visited Saturday by Dr. Phil McGraw, who counsels people on his popular television program, "The Dr. Phil Show."
McGraw said though Britney was released from hospital but she still needs psychological help.
"My meeting with Britney and some family members this morning in her room at Cedars leaves me convinced more than ever that she is in dire need of both medical and psychological intervention," he said.
The New York Post's PageSix.com cited a "family insider" as saying Britney had "a complete nervous breakdown."
A spokeswoman for the hospital declined comment citing patient confidentiality.
Federline's attorneys went to a Los Angeles family court on Friday and obtained a ruling that suspended Britney's visitation rights to her two sons, Sean Preston, 2, and Jayden James, 1, until Jan. 14.
A hearing has been set for Jan. 14 which will determine how their bitter custody battle is to proceed.
Spears lost primary custody of her sons to Federline after her life spun out of control following their divorce in November 2006.
Since then, she has spent time in rehab, been charged with hit-and-run driving and exhibited unusual behavior.
