Mischa Barton: “People look at me like I’m unstable”

Mischa Barton

Mischa Barton has said that people treat her differently following her hospitalisation earlier this year.
Speaking to the New York Observer the actress admitted that she was “sick” of having to answer questions on the topic, “I just had a bad time of year, and now it’s all over and done with,” the OC star said. “I’m very happy to be feeling happy again and back on top of it and not so worried about everything.
“One stay in hospital was turned into this huge ‘She’s lost her marbles’ thing, and people look at me like I’m unstable and they should probably cross the street when they see me.”
The actress also criticised the lack of privacy that celebrities have to live with. “I have a lot of difficulty with the way our society wants to see its public figures… Before there used to be a kind of privacy to those people that made them interesting because they were enigmatic. They had something about them that was untouchable.”
