Tila Tequila was reportedly rushed to hospital after suffering from a brain aneurism.

The 30-year-old reality star was apparently in intensive care for a week and only released yesterday.

RadarOnline reports that the 4' 11" television personality lost nearly 20lbs from her already tiny frame and she is still not back to perfect health yet.

"It was terrifying for Tila and death was knocking at her door," a source told the site.

"She was in two hospitals for the span of a week and is still not in perfect health, so she is going to check into an outpatient programme."

The insider claimed that Tila suffered a brain aneurism one night which caused her to have irrational thoughts. She allegedly took two bottles of prescription medications which had a terrible effect on her.

"Tila threw up all over her bed after overdosing and felt like she was dying," the insider claimed. "She was screaming for help and in desperation, broke her bedroom window and attempted to jump out."

"Finally a friend came over after getting a strange text from her and found her convulsing on the bed. He called an ambulance and she was taken to hospital."

Doctors apparently managed to stabilise her condition but she "may have some permanent brain damage," the source said. "She still can't fully speak properly."

The former Playboy model has been ranked in the Maxim Hot 100 list and has starred in reality shows like A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila.
