After a two month stint in a Malibu rehab center, Amber Portwood is back on mommy duty after touching back down in her hometown of Anderson, Indiana.

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, the troubled Teen Mom star checked into the facility after attempting suicide in June.

She sought treatment for "anger control issues and depression," she told Star magazine in an exclusive interview.

Amber now seems determined to get her life back on track starting with rebuilding her relationship with her daughter, Leah.

Portwood's on-again/off-again boyfriend, her baby daddy Gary Shirley currently has sole custody of their daughter but the reality TV mom is allowed visitation and was able to spend time with her as she ran errands on Sunday.

Despite her efforts to be a better mom, Jeff Lockwood, Shirley's attorney, believes Portwood, 21, may not be able to reestablish primary custody of the two-year-old.

"I think custody will go to Gary," he told Star Magazine before adding that to regain the court's trust she would have to be "able to maintain a clean track record."

Did it occur to anyone that maybe she gained weight because of her medication? You usually gain weight while on antidepressants...don't judge!

Has anyone thought about not giving custody to either of them? Amber may have issues, but Gary is lazy, immature, threatens, and emotionally abuses Amber. "SHUT UP OR I"LL TAKE LEAH FROM YOU"-Gary on mtv to Amber. Both need a reality check

I 1001% agree that neither one should have custody. Unfortunately, now that Leah is older, it would be hard now. Why they didn't put Leah up for adoption at birth is beyond me except they are both so very, very narcissistic & selfish.

These two don't do anything that makes sense or is in the best interest of the child.
