Farrah, 30, talked about her plans to undergo treatment to take care of her well-being and the "difficulties" she's experienced since the incident to .

She told the publication: "I look forward to sharing that journey with others and I hope there’s just less taboo about taking care of your mental health when we are experiencing a lot of trauma and difficulties in our world right now."

Police were eventually called in for backup leading to Farrah's arrest, though she was released shortly after.

The next day, the young mom shared a video of herself on the ground in the midst of the scuffle.

The Teen Mom OG alum was on her stomach in the clip, with a security guard holding her arms back and pushing her leg down.

Still shaken by the experience, Farrah went on to bash the venue and their staff for creating "such and unsafe, disturbing environment."

She also called the incident "scary," adding that she is "tired of people harassing me, holding me down, hurting me and lying about me and selling things to TMZ."

FARRAH'S CLAIMS

Farrah hasn't held back from sharing her side of the story online, later sharing a video on Instagram of the arrest, writing: "I've had a very traumatizing year and I don't deserve to be attacked, bruised, men on me, and battered."

"As a single mother to be harassed, battered, and conspired against as a paying customer @grandmaster_recorders should fire their management, and security for all contributing to attacking 1 person out of 3 people."

She thanked Hollywood police for "rescuing" her, adding: "I realize it's no longer safe for woman to go out to eat in their own neighborhoods.

"I look forward to my law degree and I look forward to court. Justice will be served as always."

'AFRAID TO GO OUT IN PUBLIC'

The encounter has since left the TV star scarred as she claimed she's "afraid to go out in public" and confessed to TMZ that she was "moving out" of California for the meantime.

She also revealed that she has "no bodily function on her upper right side" and is undergoing physical therapy after images from the event saw her lying face-down on the floor.

Farrah then confessed she hoped she would not need surgery for her injuries.

PARENTING BACKLASH

The TV personality has also been dealing with a slew of backlash from critics over her parenting of her 13 year old daughter Sophia.

Fans have accused the single mom of making her first child "grow up way too fast" by allowing her to wear makeup, have fake nails, and put on clothing that looked "too mature" for her age.

She also received negative comments for letting the teenager get her septum pierced for her birthday.

One fan said: "Dude she's still a baby!" 

Another fan chimed in: "Where is it even legal for a 13-year-old to get their nose pierced?! So irresponsible."
