Los Angeles: Actress Meghan Fox had recently revealed that she has suffered a psychological breakdown after being sexualised and objectified in Hollywood.

The 33-year-old actress claimed that during the Jennifer's Body days, objectification and sexualization became a recurring theme in her career as it became the marketing plan for the film simultaneously.

In a recent interview with a news portal, Fox said: "It wasn't just that movie, it was every day of my life, all the time, with every project I worked on and every producer I worked with. It preceded a breaking point for me."

Swimming through the dark moment, the Transformers star revealed that she didn't want to be seen in public during her breakdown phase.

She said: "I didn't want to be seen, I didn't want to have to take a photo, do a magazine, walk a carpet, I didn't want to be seen in public at all because the fear, and the belief, and the absolute certainty that I was going to be mocked, or spat at, or someone was going to yell at me, or people would stone me or savage me for just being out… so I went through a very dark moment after that."

The Bad Boys II actress claimed that even before the #MeToo campaign happened, it was her who spoke out against being sexualised in the industry.

"I feel like I was sort of out and in front of the #MeToo movement before the #MeToo movement happened, I was speaking out and saying, 'Hey, these things are happening to me and they're not OK'," she said.

Meghan who considered herself to be a feminist said: "Considering all of the stuff that has happened since then, and is happening on a regular basis in this country, and with celebs (stories) we have every day, I never really did anything that crazy."

"But I was really dragged through the coals for a lot of it," she said.
