Mischa Barton looks in good spirits as she emerges make-up free in LA following shocking 'meltdown'

Mischa Barton looked to be in good spirits on Tuesday, following her hospitalization last week.

The 31-year-old was spotted running errands in Los Angeles in a chic outfit as she opted to go makeup free for the day.

Mischa drove her classic car around the gray streets of the normally sunny city as she flashed a smile.

The actress sported a stripy top with a salmon colored cardigan as she strolled around in booties and high waisted trouser.  

The outing comes after footage emerged showing the moment Barton began screaming about her mother and the end of the world, after she was allegedly given the drug GBH.

The actress was filmed ranting incoherently while standing on the fence in her backyard in LA.

Barton is seen suddenly crashing to the ground as she loses her footing and falls backwards.

The actress was voluntarily taken to hospital Thursday after neighbors found her screaming.

Barton said Friday she was out of the hospital after an overnight stay and had found out through doctors that someone had given her GHB on Wednesday night, while she was celebrating her 31st birthday.

GHB, which is often referred to as a date-rape drug, has been known to be slipped in alcoholic drinks, typically to incapacitate victims of rape or sexual assault.

In the footage, Barton can be heard shouting about planet earth, before saying: 'Oh my God, it's over. I feel it. And it's angry.'

She later says: 'We're dying, we're dying. I knew it, I knew it. I don't want anybody to know. Oh my god, it's terrifying.' 

The actress is also heard shouting: 'Oh my mother. I always knew it. Oh you f***** witch. I knew it. What a witch. I was right, I was right.'

Towards the end of the footage, she shouts out 'Ziggy Stardust', the name of one of her dogs.  

Barton told People Friday that she went out with a group of friends on the evening of the 25th.

'While having drinks, I realized that something was not right as my behavior was becoming erratic and continued to intensify over the next several hours,' the actress said.

'I voluntarily went to get professional help, and I was informed by their staff that I had been given GHB. After an overnight stay, I am home and doing well.'

Barton thanked the staff at Los Angeles' Cedars-Sinai Medical Center for their care.

'This is a lesson to all young women out there, be aware of your surroundings,' she added.

However, a source has now claimed to TMZ that Mischa was on a downward spiral for 'nearly a year' before checking into the hospital psych unit.

The site alleges that Mischa's neighbours claim she 'frequently' has loud crying and screaming fits, disturbing the peace.

Her next-door-neighbours are also reported to have complained about the star's loud parties and late night Netflix binges.
