Participants on some of Australia’s biggest reality TV shows say they received ‘inadequate’ psychological support after their time on screen.

It's one of the world's most popular television genres, but more than four decades since its inception, reality TV is facing unprecedented scrutiny.

David Witko, 'the villain' on the first season of The Bachelorette, says there needs to be greater transparency and support for contestants. "I went in to researching my PhD about reality TV contestants in the hope that it would be quite a positive story, but the 'reality' was that for most people it was a bit of a disappointment," she said.It's a familiar story - and an experience many former contestants suffer in silence.

"I'd write 15, 20 rock songs and one pop song, and low and behold there's the pop song, 'we'll put that out on radio',""I was constantly trying to justify myself to everybody that, 'no, I play rock and roll, that's what I love'."He left the record label he was contracted to through the X-Factor, and eventually stopped performing altogether."I was just so lonely and I felt like everybody had got something out it bar me...

"People said that the psychologists who were on hand weren't giving them the support that they really needed, that it was a bit of a token effort."
