Wearing a hoodie and going make-up free, the reality star looked teary-eyed in her photo.
She penned alongside it: “Going through it atm. Never post s**t like this but feel like it’s important if your having the worst time rn it will get better.”
And, further down, she added: “My ego is going to regret this one as soon as I click post. I always used to think what sort of narcissist posts pictures of themselves crying?!
“I took it for myself before I even thought about posting a story… the motive was to look back in a month and see the growth happiness and fulfilment I feel from life.
“Ultimately you’ve only got yourself so I’m gonna try fall back love with my own company &the small wins again.”
It comes just a week after Megan switched to online dating to find her next romance.
Megan, who shot to fame on the fourth Love Island in 2018, revealed to fans she’s signed up to Hinge.
The Essex beauty shared a screenshot to her Instagram stories revealing a conversation between her and a Hinge match.
Whilst her potential love interest asked an innocent question of “Where’s next on your passport?”
Megan decided to try out cheeky banter as she made an X-rated rude reply and quipped: “Your dad’s d***.”
Sharing a screenshot of the chat to her Instagram, she told fans: “BEWARE the ADHD is doing the most today…”
It had been thought ITV2 star Megan had rekindled her romance with The Only Way Is Essex Towie star ex-girlfriend Demi Sims.
Megan and Demi were snapped arriving at London’s Sushi Samba in July, leading many to believe their on/off romance had started up again.
The couple got back together briefly in January last year but The Sun revealed just weeks later they were on the rocks due to Demi’s family reality show House of Sims filming in the States.
An insider told The Sun at the time: “Demi and Megan care about each other and spent a lot of time together while she was temporarily back in the UK.
“But with the family show having been renewed for a second season – before the first has even aired – Demi will be largely based in Los Angeles for the foreseeable future.”
Speaking about her split from Megan last year, Demi told the Mirror: “So I was very open with it in previous… I done a podcast and stuff.
“We’ve always been single but we were sort of linking up, you know, chatting, and just spending time together.
“But for me, personally, I really need to focus on myself and I’ve been single for two years and I think I need a bit longer and that’s what I’m doing.
“But I think I’m always gonna have that little flame, that little spark and, yeah, just gonna leave the book open there and we can pick up whenever we wanna pick up.”
In the past Megan apologised to Demi as the girls appeared on BBC series Eating With My Ex.

Speaking before the TV meet up, Megan told heat magazine: “Since we’d broken up, we hadn’t spoken and it had turned a little bit bitter.
“But we always got on, just not in a romantic capacity, so I had so much respect for her. She wasn’t an ex who I didn’t want to see again.”
