Mischa Barton: ‘I Went Through A Tough Spot’

SPL118950_001

Mischa Barton finally opened up about the mystery illness that had her plucked from her Hollywood home and plopped in a mental institute last month.

Well, well. That didn’t take long now did it?

In an interview with Time Out New York (via OK!), Mischa shrugs it all off as a “tough spot” and blames it partially on a tooth surgery gone wrong (?).

“It was a nightmare. I’ve never had surgery before — it all went wrong and I had to have a second surgery and it almost delayed shooting because it was a nightmare to me, because I couldn’t deal with the thought of not getting there on time,” she says in the interview. “So with the travel, and surgery and prep for the show — it was hell.”

Mischa kept it vague.

“I was down in the dumps about everything there for a while. Sometimes you have to hit rock bottom about things and have to get the most stressed-out just to feel better again,” she says. “I got completely stressed-out and couldn’t handle everything, and now I feel really in control.”
