Outrage: The former Emmerdale actress, 36, said she told her family 'she didn't want to be here anymore' after she was accused of over-exaggerating a playful punch from Ryan (pictured)
Candid: Pallett, speaking publicly for the first time in five months, also said she suffered with depression and was diagnosed with PTSD after her CBB stint (pictured on the show)
Pallett also claimed she was scared to leave her house after she received messages from people saying they 'wished she was dead.'
She added that through therapy she was able to address past 'traumas' that she had 'pushed to the back of her mind'.
The actress said: 'I'm not using these traumas as an excuse, because they’re not, but some people can bounce back and handle life and some of us don’t. I looked at the footage [of the Big Brother house] and I thought: "I need help".'
It was reported earlier this month that Pallett's 'whole life appeared to have fallen apart' after her fiancé, Lee Walton, left her.
A source told The Sun: 'Roxanne's whole life appears to have fallen apart in the past six months. Professionally, no one wants to touch her and now her personal life is in tatters.
Candid: Roxanne added that she was even scared to leave her house after people wished she was dead so she changed her number, email address and even moved house
'She and Lee got very serious very quickly but it has ended completely. She is gutted.'
The actress faced fierce backlash from the public after she falsely accused Ryan Thomas of punching her on Celebrity Big Brother.
EastEnders actor Sam Attwater claimed in September that 'dangerous' Pallett had once punched him onstage before accusing him of hitting her too.
But last summer, Pallett branded Thomas a 'woman beater' before going to the Diary Room to demaHe was issued with a formal warning, but Pallett claimed to be afraid of him, asking to sleep in a separate room that evening and seen crying and shaking.
She then told her fellow housemates that he had 'repeatedly hit her in the ribs', which led them to confront him about it.
On eventually understanding what took place, the housemates backed Thomas, with Pallett leaving the show.
After her exit from the Channel 5 show, she returned for a pre-recorded interview with host Emma Willis to apologise for the incident.

They all panicked, called each other and my mum left work to rush and get to me. That was when they all realised I needed urgent help. I went to Scotland the next morning and began EMDR and CBT therapy for PTSD panic disorder.'The soap star said she was put on antidepressants, anxiety medication and started losing her hair after her Celebrity Big Brother exit.
