A 20-year-old woman who survived the Orlando shooting with a gunshot wound to the leg hit out at skeptics who accused her of making up her survival story in bizarre conspiracy theories.

Patience Carter, a Fox 29 intern from Philadelphia, was visiting Orlando for the first time when she got caught in the Pulse nightclub attack.

She was one of 53 people left wounded after the shooting, which left 50 dead including the shooter.

But as Carter told how she survived the attack, some accused her online of being an actor paid to pretend she had been a victim of the ordeal.

A now-defunct YouTube video claimed she was a 'crisis actor', which conspiracy theorists claim is a person hired by the media or by government bodies to pretend they survived crimes such as mass shootings.

'This is faked. This is staged. They are using actors. There is no doubt about it. This is 100 percent bull***t,' a narrator said in the video, which included a montage of news clips about Carter according to the New York Daily News.

Other users claimed Carter couldn't have been at Pulse nightclub at the time of the attack as the theories spread on social media.

Carter, who has described in vivid detail the events that unfolded on June 12, hit back at the skeptics in an Instagram post Friday.

She shared a photo of her wounded leg, with glittery red slippers looking like Dorothy Gale's in The Wizard Of Oz on her feet, and announced she was being discharged and was headed home.

'Thank you Florida Hospital Orlando for taking care of me, thank you to all of the supporters who reached out to me and my family,' she wrote in the caption, 'and thank you to all the skeptics that believe my pain isn't real, it's your outrageous insensitivity that makes me want to heal even faster, and grow even stronger.'

Carter then shared a video filmed as she waited to get inside a vehicle while sitting in a wheelchair.

'I'm on my way home,' she can be heard saying. 'Not feeling too hot, but at least I'm moving.'

She later shared another clip showing how to care for her wounded leg.

Carter previously shared a poem she wrote after the attack, reciting: 'The guilt of feeling grateful to be alive is heavy. Wanting to smile about surviving but not sure if the people around you are ready.

'As the world mourns the victims killed and viciously slain. I feel guilty about screaming about my legs in pain. Because I could feel nothing like the other 49 who weren’t so lucky to feel this pain of mine. I never thought in a million years that this could happen.
