It kicked off when Amber took to Snapchat to share a selfie which showed her posing with puckered lips while sporting purple scrubs.

The MTV star made sure to let fans know she was not using a filter and also added, "...And yes I know I need a haircut."

However, fans were quick to take it to to react, with the majority showing quite a bit of concern.

One person wrote: "Poor thing," while another asked, "Is she using again?"

A user chimed in: "I feel bad for her..." while another shared their thoughts on her possible drug use, saying, "Hard to say… The walk out of the woods is as deep as the walk in. She used for a long time."

This is not the first time that Amber has had fans wondering if she's well - back in August the 34-year-old seemed to be covered in bruises and cuts.

Amber's brother, Tyler, has been open about how he's struggled with his older sibling's addiction.

Earlier this year, a scene from Teen Mom OG showed Tyler's devastation at learning Amber had relapsed and was drinking again.

A promo clip had Tyler's mom, Kim, tell him and Catelynn the news, to which he responded: "Oh, F**k."

FEARING FOR AMBER

Although, Tyler said his sister likes to "indulge in happiness," Kim feared her daughter was following in the footsteps of Tyler's drug-addict father, Butch.

Tyler, 29, reflected on how he could understand how Amber's children may feel not having their mom around, after his own experience with his absentee father.

He said: "As a kid, you feel like what's wrong with me? I'm just irritated with it. Why are you not putting me first?

"Why are you not here enough? Why don't you want to be with me and hang out with me every weekend and go get high? It doesn't make sense."

TROUBLE WITH THE LAW

Aside from Amber's addiction battle, she has also had issues with the law.

In 2019 she was arrested and charged with assault and held on a $1,500 bond.

She also went to rehab in 2018 after being arrested in 2013 for possessing narcotic equipment and a glass smoking pipe and spent 20 days behind bars.
