"I hate feeling like this. I feel like everyone hates me."
Her emotional mum replied: "I think we need to go away. There are a few therapists there, I think you have got a few issues you need to deal with, it is worrying me, the outbursts that you're doing.
"We've got to think about what's triggering them, you're not a bad person. We're going to go away and get this all fixed, and get this back to how I know you."
Later, the Towie star called her mum and said she was ready to "go away" and take a break from the show.
