Speaking to Jeremy Kyle, the 42-year-old spoke about how a cocaine overdose nearly stopped her heart.
She said: "I remember timing my heart because I knew it was going to stop. I remember my telephone was there [points] and I remember crawling on my hands and knees to pick up the phone and call, and then I woke up in hospital.
"I remember saying my prayers. I knew my heart was stopping."
Palmer-Tomkinson explained that her addiction led to her having a "psychosis" and becoming "devious and deceptive and deceitful".
She also admitted to getting "drunk" on the plane while travelling to a £35,000 rehab centre in Arizona.
The former socialite revealed that she has become a "recluse" in recent years, and still struggles with anxiety issues.

"I don't have any temptation to take drugs any more. No, no, gosh no. Drugs absolutely terrify me," she said.
"I get terribly anxious going out. I've only been out three times this year. I don't go out to public events. For the last two years I haven't worked.
"I've seen a therapist every single week for the last nine, ten years of my life."
Her interview airs today (June 10) at 2pm on ITV. Michael Barrymore appeared on the celebrity special yesterday, while Tito Jackson, Shaun Ryder and Liz Dawn will also feature this week.
