Anyone can end up on the wrong side of the law.  But we can all bounce back, with help!

It’s been a turbulent few months for Heather Locklear, but the actress exuded positivity in a new Instagram post — her first since she was arrested for battery and hospitalized for a suspected overdose in June.

Locklear, who turns 57 next month, marked her return to social media with an adorable photo of her dog wearing sunglasses. The caption: “Sun shining day.”

The playful message is the first Instagram Locklear has posted since April 13. On June 16, the former Melrose Place star was hospitalized after her mother called police claiming that Locklear was threatening to kill herself. The 911 operator who took the call described Locklear as “agitated and violent.”

Just days later, Locklear was arrested and charged with two counts of misdemeanor battery on emergency personnel who responded to a separate 911 call to her home.

“She kicked one of our deputies, and she also kicked an EMT who tried to evaluate her medical status,” a spokesperson for the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office told Yahoo Entertainment following the incident. “She is in the process of posting bail at this time.”

Locklear spent 12 hours in custody before returning home, where the following afternoon police were again called following reports of a suspected overdose. The actress was subsequently hospitalized.

The June events weren’t her only brush with the law this year. In February, she was charged with a felony count of domestic violence against boyfriend Chris Heisser and three counts of misdemeanor battery against police officers who responded to her brother’s 911 call that she and Heisser were fighting. Hours later, Heisser was charged with driving under the influence, and has since pleaded guilty.
