"Child Protective Services agreed it was safer for her to stay at Gary's because of all the photographers outside my house," Portwood told the magazine.
The MTV reality star is taking medication to cope with anxiety and depression. Being away from Leah "is the lowest of the low," Portwood says.
"I feel like everything is spinning out of control, and I'm trying to put the pieces back together," she continues. "I have to get myself better so when I get my baby back, she sees her mom as happy as can be."
