Seeing how hard it is for Demi to get and stay clean with all the support she has .. makes my heart break for the random person with no one to help them. Prayers to everyone struggling.
@@Truthfulnesss sending you 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺 lost my 18 year old brother to heroin he was a Under 16 golf champion then sum arsehole from golf introduced him to speed . Just know I read your comments ok take care 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘😘

@Slum Lord ever hear of self responsibility? This generation has had is so easy, they have to make up stuff to be depressed about. Don't worry, you'll have plenty of real reasons soon when the communism you all want so much is here to stay.
“I’ve always wanted to try it.” It’s crazy hearing someone say they want to try that. As curious as I am with drugs, heroin has always scared the crap out of me.
Yep! As a recovering addict, or atleast try to recover, I am happy to see demi lovato talk about this. I was the same. I was 12/13 when I decided I always wanted to try heroin...the amount of trauma that I wwnt through to get me to that stage at 12 years old is crazy, hold onto the fear.
Idk if you ever done mushrooms or lsd but they can get so scary that you’ll never want to do them again😂 that’s where there are 0 episodes of people addicted to mushrooms on the show intervention. Psychedelics will make you want to quit everything and take care of yourself and beg to be sober while it’s happening sometimes. I think they are good because there is a 50/50 chance they will make you feel way worse. Drugs like H, crack and alcohol ect all are to make you feel “good” and that’s why they are so dangerous and addictive
@@Willppyro complete opposite for me. Coke made me paranoid and depressed. LSD and 🍄 made me feel amazing, unstoppable, I knew the meaning of life for a night and wanted to fix my life and just be this motivated person
@@i-bring-youvideos9391 don’t think he means this. Nobody gives a shit about addicts except when someone is famous most addicts have 0 support. Just my view
i don’t think people give her enough credit for being this open and brave about drug use. a lot of celebs suffer in silence Edit: Ignore the comment section, its just people who think that because she is rich and a celebrity, her addiction was just "glamourizing" and not as hard or important as their addiction was. And this is coming from a dirt poor former addict themself, so I know it's just bullshit. Everyone's story matters and addiction is hard for everyone, they are just bitter for no reason and have nothing but hate to spew into the world, which you think would be different considering they themselves went through it, but apparently they went through it much harder and their story matters, not anyone elses, celebrity or not.
Shes thriving on the attention though... how many times she has to go and tell her ,story,? Go and get sober, put your life together. Thats story worth telling.
@@miriamchalmovianska863 If you have a platform and a big audience like she does, its very helpful to a lot of people who are addicts to hear her story. She can reach a lot of people with her message, whereas me and you couldn't. It's not " thriving on attention", its using a big platform to get the positive message out to the world. This is why a lot of celebs don't talk about drug use and mental problems, because people like you just think they are doing it for attention.
@@sweetheartmashupsbabe lol that is literally not similar at all to what i’m talking about. nicki or doja rapping about poppin pills is not same as someone explicitly sharing their story about coke and heroin addiction. rappers don’t try to steer people away from drugs, they glamorize them.
It's only gutsy if it's hard. Some people overshare their lifestory to anyone who will listen, and some people will never share their hardships or just take years to open up. Demi has always loved attention and I doubt its hard for her.
I can recommend you to where I get my stuff his got Shrooms, psychedelics, Microdose, Dmt, Vape Pens, Carts, Cannabis, also other products well refined ships discreetly to anywhere also guide you if you're a newbie?
None wants to try heroin …no addict wants to be addicted to heroin and rhat right theor provessss this girl is using this shit for clout and money i said wht i said
@@cristyn_8733 bullshit I always wanted to try it as I’ve always been Interested in drugs. Done it like 10 times over 3 years as. I didn’t use it in order to forget a shit situation or deal with trauma. You only get physically addicted with a week of continuous use. Doesn’t make you addicted from one use lol
I got mad respect for celebrities who go public about their addiction struggles. It takes tremendous courage when you're a nobody let alone famous and always in the public eye. Wether you think she's doing it for clout or whatnot is irrelevant. She's still helping people by going public about it.
She just put here trying all kinds of drugs claiming she’s an addict lol while there are actual addicts suffering! She’s full of shite and clearly just wants attention.
I’m floored and impressed by Demi’s bravery. Prayers for Demi and for every single person out there struggling w/this horrible disease. It steals some of the best and brightest and it’s heartbreaking.
I love the fact she speaks out on it, I’m in my twenties and I model. My looks matter a lot and earlier this year I started smoking crack and even tried meth once. Very early stages. Luckily I hated meth, never wanted to do that but I liked the crack and it was very addicting but simply did not wanna live that life. Been 6 months sober and have no desire to ever try again. It’s all about the people you surround yourself with.
6 months is a mountain, be proud you climbed that!!!! I’m struggling to stay clean from opioids and I’ve only made it three weeks at the most every time I’ve tried. It’s a hell you won’t know until you’ve walked through it, like we have. God bless you and keep going!
What bothers me the most is that her friends knew she had problems and they went partying to a bar and were egging her on to drink drink drink and I know it’s Demi’s choice what she does but she needs better friends.
It's her choice just as easy as it is to fall into peer pressure. People in a group will often do things that they would never do alone, whether you are on the giving or receiving end of it. If you are on the receiving end, you're inclined to feel less bad about it because people pressured you into it. At the giving end, you feel less guilty for pressuring someone into doing something because you were not the only one. The guilt is always shared.
They either have the same problem of addiction or they are naive to how addiction works. It’s very easy for us to condemn others being that we have a vastly objective viewpoint here on the interwebz. People are very good at convincing others that they’re ok. I’m sure many of those friends look back and feel guilty. But, Demi is responsible for herself and she demonstrates that very well in these clips. When you are an addict, it doesn’t matter if friends are egging you on or pleading with you to stop. Once that switch is flipped, absolutely nothing will stop you. Not even total isolation.
I'm a recovering addict & work in treatment, it's taught me a lot. It's really hard for me to respect her when she had promoted being 'California Sober'. Honestly, someone like me who's done hardcore drugs, it's hard for me to believe she's been only been able to smoke weed. It always starts like that, one drink or just weed. I've seen it a thousand times. I know 'everyone's different' but that's not clean & sober. I hope she's still doing well, but I wouldn't say she's person to look up to, especially when it comes to staying clean. That's just my opinion, no hate. Just working with people suffering, that's not something you promote. She's a celebrity, so she had all the money in the world to be and to mess up & go back to rehab. For a lot of people, they have one time to get their shit together, & if they relapse, it's over.
I agree with this as well. I’m in long term recovery and I’ve seen a lot of people go down the “just pot” route. Almost 100% of the time it ends up putting them right back where they started or worse. She’s unfortunately let her addiction become her whole identity, it’s sad to see.
@@jak2828 That's amazing! I hope it's working well for you. I know how hard it can be & whenever I hear or see people who are still working on their recovery, it makes me happy. Because the truth is, you never stop recovering it's forever. Idk if anyone has said this to you, bit I'm so very proud of you, you can do this, and when the going gets rough, just remember it passes! Then you'll be glad that you didn't give in. Keep doing you & surround yourself with people who believe & love you. You can do this. 💜☺️
@@jak2828 yall are ignorant to think everyone is the same and had the same experience as u. Yes believe it or not someone can smoke weed without doing anything else lmao.
Always wanted to try it? That’s insane. At the end of the day she DID SAY she wanted to try it and that’s sad cuz anyone who thinks that at a young age will probably end up like her😕 I never realized what she was going thru till today. My heart.
It breaks my heart how common this is. I was 13 when I decided I wanted to try heroin. I didn't until I was 19. I hate that so many children will feel the same as me. Mental health is at the root of all this pain and destruction.
My buddy's wife always wanted to try it in the rear end. He wanted nothing to do with it, so they talked me into having a threesome with them. She wasn't very pretty, but she has a beautiful rear end, nice and round. She was going down on him while I got her from behind. I felt bad for him because she was having a hard time going down on him while I was plowing her rear end. I started really slowly but she kept asking me to give her everything I had. The next day her husband was laughing about how she was screaming like a banshee. She wants to do it again, but I'm not going to lie, her face has acne scars all over. But her rear end is absolutely beautiful. I'm hoping she will ride me backwards.
I tried H at age 21 bc I always wanted to try it. I saved $ for a month. Took a shot. Hated it. Threw up for hours. Don't try H. You could die the first time you try it.
I forgot where I heard this but someone once said to an addict, “cant you just stay here with the rest of us for a little while” It’s such a simple line but powerful to me like life and happiness can exist outside of getting high. And it doesn’t have to be forever but if you’re struggling with addiction as I have come on and “stay with the rest of us for a little while”
She’s so broken in different ways & yet she’s a warrior. She’s been through hell repeatedly & is telling more truth about the messed up things she experienced in her life & I hope she will be in a better place by the end of this documentary & in general in her life going forward
Preach it. She is such a warrior lol. Ugh. This is a fucking joke. What a way to introduce drugs to a generation of depressed kids who have been forced into a life of isolation! Who better than a beautiful actress/singer that can evade consequence. The writing is on the wall. These Hollywood fucks are messing with our kids minds and giving them more ideas to cope with their insecurities. Propaganda bs. Such a warrior. She deserves a medal right?
She’s doing the vivetrol shots which block the opioid receptors so she probably won’t relapse from opioid use. She’s pretty much just gotta watch the alcohol addition now
We all have differences in our biology as individual human beings, the real reason for the attraction to drugs varies greatly in each addicted or dependant person, for a start a persons perception of His/Her senses vary so much from person to person, I argue that addiction is not a disease at all, I think it is the BIGGEST mistake in the fight to help people get clean. There are so many different reasons that people choose to use drugs. Person A may feel normal before they decide to take drugs, and just want to party harder and they just use at certain events. Person B May be depressed or have mental health issues and desperately needs to numb their pain. Person C May be really shy and seeks to become more confident and a certain drug may really help them. Person D This person may just want to feel as messed up as possible and will take just about anything to get high. Person E May be using drugs to improve performance in anything from sports to having focus and getting less distracted. Some people want drugs for perverted sex acts and want to feel turned on. Person F May have a combination of the above.. But all of these persons plays with the risk of being addicted and their addictions will vary in many ways, like some people may not have morals, they steal they rob people, they do anything to get drugs, they may hide behind the addiction disease theory, but really they are just scum and will lie at any chance to get drugs, these people give drugs a really bad name. Some people can get along fine without drugs, some people can get along feeling really active and happy most of the time, but unfortunately, some people lack certain brain chemicals that help to generate happiness and or have other problems with the brain and use drugs as if they are their own doctor only trying to fix a problem that other medical means have failed (I am in this category, I have schizophrenic episodes, and am scizotypal with severe depression) so I lack enthusiasm when I am without my drug, a drug that a lucky prescription helped me find that works to eliminate almost all of my illness. these people are in a totally different group than the above but can still obviously become addicted and their reasons to take drugs may change. Some people in this last group may just live miserably and accept it, but for some it is just too disabling therfore the notion is set to find a way to feel good. If it is a really bad situation and no other treatments have worked, even the nicest of people will seek to experiment with drugs. Once a mentally sick feels healed with a type of drug, life can seem worth living, enthusiasm is back and the depression has gone and all is great.. until the drug wears off.. Then a person can feel even worse than before they used drugs. WHY HAVE SCIENTISTS NOT INVENTED A CLEAN DRUG THAT HAS NO HORRIBLE SIDE EFFECTS THAT JUST MAKE PEOPLE HAPPY ARGHHHH. If happiness and feeling content is present most of the time then the desire to live is back, and the energy to do whatever is back, and all is fixed. Anti depressants are not the answer for me, for 99% It may help a bit but a stronger sense of feeling content is needed for the really ill people. Seems like a simple fix that could save thousands of lives... WHERE IS IT FFS
the beautiful thing about demi is that even as she tells about the horrible things she has done and how life almost had its way with her badly, it permanently shines through that she is a good, good person from the bottom of her heart. She should know this. Even with all the demons. Oftentimes it's the better people that get left in shambles by the ways of life.
She is so blessed and it’s a reason why God still has her here...she is also lucky to still have her gorgeous voice and beautiful looks cuz the normally the first things to go...
@@jennxv3 do you know anything about addiction ? Religion is one of the main ways people get help. A lot of people look to a higher power to help them. When they know they are defenseless
Unfortunately, I wouldn’t be surprised if Demi is still using because when she tried all those drugs it’s really hard to quit. I know how powerful these drugs are. I just hope she stays clear of “H” that’s not surprisingly can be laced with fentanyl that will kill you. Going to rehab is great ONLY if the addict wants to quit. If they don’t, once there out of rehab if they were forced into treatment by the courts, they will get “high” and be an addict again. Being an addict will be always be a challenge as we don’t know when life and our attitudes will change over time. Those triggers we get, that will lead us down the wrong path of destruction to ourselves again. I hope Demi has a good support group setup, so she can stay sober for the rest of her life. ❤️
Me too...I admire it...being in her position of fame and money most either end up killing themselves 4 real. ..don't get a 2nd chance. I never had the money or fame and in a way that's been a good thing....cos this was my comment I wrote on this bit tonight. ... I lived on cracks n heroin for over 20 yrs!!! Including all drugs since I started at 11/12 yrs old...and went through the alphabet of drugs...now I'm 41 and clean from them ALL!!! But only this year it's happened...where I got to the "Had Enuf, I'm Done" time!! No1 understands y I look 29 at 41 with the life I've led...must b good genes!!! Cos I've never had money...never had any healthy lifestyle, opposite infact...been homeless...living in a tent with my then b/f, got abused at 11-13 sexual, sold my body as an escorts for 10yrs (for heroin&crack or coke)...I was a junkie! On snowballs!! I was on the edge...overdosed on crack/coke 4 times and had fits...but didn't care if I lived or died. Glad I'm out other side this year but fk was it hard...but u now I don't have ANY interest in drugs!!! Now my strong willpower is back...like I always had b4 Heroin...cos that's the main 1 that obliterates ur willpower. None b4 it did. Then snowballing heroin & crack together in needle is even worse...that changed me ENTIRELY!!! In every way! I cud EASILY write a massive book on my life. Thus is only tip of iceberg!!!
@@jennhypp5367 I've been thinking of doing a pod cast of my own...about all my life experiences. Cos I'm better at talking to express myself tether than writing...I think I cud do it co's I can write essays once I get into it. But I'm good at answering questions ppl may have and I'd give them opportunities to do so. And ther r sooo many different subjects I cud touch on...sexual abuse I had between 11-13 from the closest family member u cud imagine. Rasism at school abouts a kid. Been bullied at school for a short time...but as an adult too at my lowest point. Been to prison. Been on medication...that I was left on for 20+ yrs, and such a high dose of 100ml methadone daily...never even offered rehab. Never even gave clean tests for 18 yrs of it. THERS ANOTHER MESSAGE BY ME AFTER THIS 1 TOO, BUT IT HASN'T PUT UR NAME ON TOP!!! Soz.
I wudnt b surprised if a relapse occurs at some point. It happened to me...and I was the most determined person in world I wasn't getting bk on it. Evry1 believed me...EVEN ME! But I ended up hanging out with someone else who was ment to b clean & it all went wrong. But I was only 24 at the time. I'd been clean in jail for 3 yrs after getting 5 & a half yrs for 5x £5 bags of heroin in 2001 wen I'd just turned 21, 3 mths b4.
I'm so glad you're here to talk about your past. There is a reason you're supposed to be here! And you will definitely figure that out. Sending you hugs and prayers. Take care
I think it will be a miracle if she lives to see her middle to late thirties. She has serious addictions. I hope she has the support that she needs to stay alive. It would be a shame to lose her.
Funny thing. Drug addiction is linked to higher IQ. And drugs are over stigmatized. At least heroin is. Meth and crack crack cocaine not so much. Whenever you see people stumbling like a zombie that’s probably not heroin by itself. It jus doesn’t do that. Fent or a Xanax + heroin mix. People want experiences. It’s not like you put a needle in your arm 1 time and your life is destroyed. It takes A LOT of heroin to get addicted within a month, even as “highly” addictive as it is. People push through and keep on using even when they know they are doing too much, erode they start experiencing withdrawals. All responsibility is on the user, and not on the drugs.
@@matt9383 right! What is with these addicts giving life advice “heroin isn’t that addictive” the fuck it is! Amazing anyone would say this shit. Why would anyone try and convince others that heroin or any other hard drug “isn’t that bad”. Drives me absolutely nuts! I live with roommates that do coke all the time and see what it does to their lives. It is absolutely disgusting.
People are saying Demi is brave, But yet when they see a junkie on the street they wouldn't even give them more than a sideways glance. I hope people who say she's brave try not to judge real people who are addicts
Her o.d. was in 2018...2 years ago...as a recovering addict myself there is no perfect place to be in to share your story. We are taught to share our story and share our hope and strength, we are also taught to take it one day at a time and understand whether someone has 1 day clean or 1,000 relapse can happen to any addict.
@@jessicaabbassi1140 as normal people I get what you're saying. As celebrities it's publicity already. It's not inspiring, it's not courageous. Inspiring and courageous would be not relapsing for the millions of people who watch you all the time. I was a fan of hers but I'm pretty over it but my measly opinion doesn't matter anyway. Just saying.
@@eliatorres2486 if you understand addiction at all then you would understand it is an incurable disease. Someone cannot simply stay sober and be in so much trauma,pain etc and stay clean alone for strangers they don't know. It has to be one's choice. Relapse is a part of many addicts journey, mine included. She also has mental illness which she openly talks about and that is also not curable. You seem to lack understanding, knowledge and empathy for those who aren't like you. There are a lot of great resources to educate yourself on mental health and addiction. You can also sit in NA meetings etc to learn and understand about addiction and rhe program. Its easy to judge or feel a certain way about something you don't experience and don't have to struggle with. I was clean fir 10 years and relapsed...unfortunately it happens to many, what matters is always trying again and that she seems to want to do. Also if you watch her documentary she takes ownership over her choices but explains what lead to it. Addicts are powerless over addiction, we learn that in the program, however we can take it one day at a time and relapse or not choose to move forward and never stop fighting for recovery even if we sometimes fail. 🙏
@@eliatorres2486 also in a world where most celebrities wont address or even try to be aware of their issues or what they do she is brutally honest when she could not do interviews and just completley neglect the matter together. Thats pretty damn brave when millions are watching. Also as an addict seeing her fall after 6 years which is a long time for an addict but continue to try to move forward is inspiring. Guessing your not an addict so there isn't much I could say to make you understand if yiu haven't experienced it or seen it firsthand.
@@eliatorres2486 she literally relapsed due ti feeling immense pressure iver so many things and what your saying is proving her point. Its not her responsibility to be perfect cuz she is a celebrity. Do you know how many celebritues are or were addicts or have experimented etc? Im sure enough relapse and if theu dont overdose guess no media knows, but thats okay because noone knows...she is fucking human thats the whole point, she doesnt owe sobriety to you however I hope she realises she deserves it for herself and ai hope she will be okay🙏💜.
It can be difficult to be sober. It’s an emotional roller coaster. I know there were many sleepless nights where she sat up crying. The moments where she folded and had to look at herself with all these d rugs around, alone and she doesn’t want to really even do it, but now you have physical withdrawals and they are almost unimaginable. I used to make fun of her. I’m older now, I’m happy we’re both living in our truth.
Yeah, definitely NOT taking my sobriety advice from Demi Lovato.. This is so far beyond detrimental to individuals who cannot afford (literally & figuratively) to be "California Sober." It blows my mind how completely out of touch this woman has become. She has ZERO regard for her fans and/or people attempting to embrace sobriety, out of either desire OR complete desperation. Not everyone has your luxuries, Demi.
Agree. She also has a major brain injury and permanent damage from her drug overdose which means she might not even see the full scope of all of it. It's sad to see people battling addiction. California sober is toxic bullshit
It’s a scary and dark path to take. I’m scared for her because addicts relapse multiple times. I pray that she remains clean for as long as possible without relapsing. Especially, people who have been addicted to heroin. That stuff is the devil. Scary wow
I've never gotten addicted with drugs because the highs are too scary for me. The consequences and constant overdosing made me want to stop. And I never went to the hospital I was one LUCKY COOKIE.
Its wild how our biology has such a massive impact on the development of addiction. I've tried every drug once and never got addicted ever. Never felt the urge to do it again with anything.
Incredibly brave for telling her story. It’s like watching one of my childhood icons become an adult hero to me. Not only did she struggle with addiction but she recovered from some of the most addictive if not the most addictive drugs in the world. A lot of people died fighting the fight she did and it could’ve been a very different story. Her new song substance has lyrics real and raw. As someone myself who is struggling with substance abuse I can honestly say she inspires me the most to get clean and not “end up in a casket” lol. Addiction can take over you but if Demi did it we can too.
How is not "ending up in a casket" funny? 🤨 🤔 I don't get the 'lol' after that statement. Sounds like a very serious & great goal to have & truly want to achieve...
I’m really glad she dropped the California sober thing. She has permanent brain damage from her overdose, the severe one, because she’s had more than one. I’ve been there and I’ve been struggling since I was 16. It’s a daily battle.
Comment section, be nice. Some of us have made mistakes we regret and it'd be hypocritical to judge. I'm glad she's doing better and letting others know her story.
I'm not proud of her actions but I'm proud of her sharing her story, hopefully this helps someone notice how easily and playfully they can fall for a lifetime of endless struggle for not only themselves but everyone around them.
When I relapsed in Oct 2018 with heroin after being clean for almost 3 years, I would record myself on my iphone camera for whatever reason idk. Was it to see what I looked like fucked up and to show and discourage myself next time I am tempted to use? Was it to have documented incase I overdosed? Maybe subconsciously it was both of those reasons. I just recently had to delete those videos when I came across them in my hidden album because being that I haven't used since then, when I watched it, it was almost triggering me to wanna use and so I just went ahead and deleted it because I am definitely not wanting to go down that route again.
In general I don’t know in her specific case if it turns into a medical situation to the point your practically on a death bed you can’t be arrested for it also lost celebs have secret hotspots where only celebs are allowed or they have nightclubs in their mansions so they aren’t ever caught and to just talk about it or sing or rap nothing can be done as there is no physical visual evidence of it being done
It’s crazy I’ll never forget that day, I went into labor with my daughter on July 25 2018. She was born addicted to methadone, but she was such a miracle baby, they thought she’d have to go to the NICU. They kept her an extra 24 hours after I was discharged and I was with her in a little room during that entire time. The drs and nurses never saw anything like this before. They would do a scoring to see how bad she was detoxing. If she had hit an 8 3 x’s in a row then she’d have to go to the NICU. Instead her score went from 8,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 over night! So for those that don’t believe in a higher energy or positive prayer I feel sorry for you. I surround myself that have me and my family’s best interest at heart. To make a long story longer, I had ODed for the first time in my life by sniffing 1 bag. I was in traffic and last I remembered was hitting the brakes and I was out. When the cops came they said I was purple from the neck up. So I go to the hospital and they asked is there a chance ur pregnant. I said no, well it came back positive. And the only sexual experience I had, I was raped. I know the kid who did it and his father was the head detective of the state police in my area so I couldn’t even go against him if I tried. I decided to keep her, and now she’s a beautiful little red head with bright blue eyes and curly hair like Shirley Temple. She now has a father, he came into my life when she was about 14 months, and I had known him 4 years prior to that otherwise I wouldn’t have allowed him around my angel. I did everything by myself in the beginning. Including giving birth. My mother came right after I had her but I’ll never forget
The easiest way to stay sober is to never try hard drugs , you never know if your body and brain will be able to not get addicted to it . Why would you risk it knowing that could be the begging of the end for you
Being where I have been and getting out of it with no money then going back and getting back out again, I think we will end up reading about her overdose like we did mac Miller.
She was always around glitz and glamour she never saw what drugs really do. In the moment you don’t think of what could go wrong only what’s going right whether she had a bad feelings that day or not sometimes your gut feeling isn’t strong enough it takes one choice to make a whole rainstorm drown you causing you life long pain, regrets and damage. The choices you make today will shape your life forever but you can focus on what scarred you or traumatised you or you can learn from your scars and refocus. I hate the people around her I feel like most of them are fake… knowing what she knows now she would have never done it but you wise from your mistakes that’s what makes us grow. She just needed someone to be there, really be there someone who actually cared…
her: you got coke and xanax? dealer: no but i got crack and heroin her:🤔 this has to be one of the dummest interviews i’ve watched in a long time. i hope she is doing well and is beating her addiction.
Why do people assume that people who do Drugs are sad, troubled, or doing it to forget about reality? 🤔Some people just like "Pleasure" but fail to realize it could cost you your life. I almost died from Drugs and God sparred my life.
Talking about addiction and doing nothing- not staying away from drugs, dismantling her schroom room, gling out to meet real people, volunteer in shelter for homeless, for animals, in orphanages, in hospitals, old peoples homes. Thats what she should do. Fire all her employees. They are only enablers. Go camping, hiking, living in nature. Not 5* hotels. In tent. Feel the earth. pick your food. Feel alive. She feels dead inside.
The bigger a deal people make of one accomplishing sobriety is not helpful. It's a reminder that you messed up and somehow drives the memories towards that direction. It seems to be something that is better left in the past.
The fact that she is worst now then in this video makes me so sad.. like fr fr I hope one day she finally is over this! I know those things take time… and I know it’s difficult but I do wish healing for her
My story is very similar to hers… crack , cocaine, herion, Xanax, opiates, meth, and so much more… I tried to use it recreationally.. I thought I had it under control. I am now sober from everything since October 2020. I’ll never go back. I’m so happy she’s sober now.
I can’t imagine preforming live and then someone is like “congrats 6 years sober” and then all your fans start cheering. Personally I’d feel so ashamed and bad and hate myself even if I was still sober
Exactly and these groups want you to keep sharing your story. I couldn’t stay sober in the groups because it’s bought up over and over and over. Finally I stopped going and focused on a positive future and I haven’t done any drug in 9 years. I rarely think about it anymore only when it’s bought up. Move on
For me, it’s the lack of remorse for what they put their family and friends through. I saw ZERO guilt and zero accountability from the documentary. The victim narrative is STRONG with this one.
I think I like her even more because she did share her story and she isn't trying to sugar coat how bad drugs can effect a person's life. Regardless if your rich or poor drug's will effect you negatively either way.
I’ve always found it strange that they don’t actually have much emotion in their voice and face about it but it’s just like here’s what’s happening. It’s me.
For her to of struggled with addiction like the person below me said it’s crazy how one can look who has tons of money verses regular people like us look like crack heads and all .. she’s beautiful and stayed beautiful even through her addiction
Seeing how hard it is for Demi to get and stay clean with all the support she has .. makes my heart break for the random person with no one to help them. Prayers to everyone struggling.
Belive me shits tough with nobody to support u she's lucky af I would give the clothes off my back to have a support system
So u keep using

“I’ve always wanted to try it.” It’s crazy hearing someone say they want to try that. As curious as I am with drugs, heroin has always scared the crap out of me.
Heroin isn't for the weak
Yep! As a recovering addict, or atleast try to recover, I am happy to see demi lovato talk about this. I was the same. I was 12/13 when I decided I always wanted to try heroin...the amount of trauma that I wwnt through to get me to that stage at 12 years old is crazy, hold onto the fear.
Idk if you ever done mushrooms or lsd but they can get so scary that you’ll never want to do them again😂 that’s where there are 0 episodes of people addicted to mushrooms on the show intervention. Psychedelics will make you want to quit everything and take care of yourself and beg to be sober while it’s happening sometimes. I think they are good because there is a 50/50 chance they will make you feel way worse. Drugs like H, crack and alcohol ect all are to make you feel “good” and that’s why they are so dangerous and addictive

@O no she doesn’t lol
i don’t think people give her enough credit for being this open and brave about drug use. a lot of celebs suffer in silence
Edit: Ignore the comment section, its just people who think that because she is rich and a celebrity, her addiction was just "glamourizing" and not as hard or important as their addiction was. And this is coming from a dirt poor former addict themself, so I know it's just bullshit. Everyone's story matters and addiction is hard for everyone, they are just bitter for no reason and have nothing but hate to spew into the world, which you think would be different considering they themselves went through it, but apparently they went through it much harder and their story matters, not anyone elses, celebrity or not.
Shes thriving on the attention though... how many times she has to go and tell her ,story,? Go and get sober, put your life together. Thats story worth telling.
@@miriamchalmovianska863 If you have a platform and a big audience like she does, its very helpful to a lot of people who are addicts to hear her story. She can reach a lot of people with her message, whereas me and you couldn't. It's not " thriving on attention", its using a big platform to get the positive message out to the world. This is why a lot of celebs don't talk about drug use and mental problems, because people like you just think they are doing it for attention.
@@miriamchalmovianska863 it’s not that easy. Better she’s honest
Don’t rappers mention drug use in like...every song tho?
@@sweetheartmashupsbabe lol that is literally not similar at all to what i’m talking about. nicki or doja rapping about poppin pills is not same as someone explicitly sharing their story about coke and heroin addiction. rappers don’t try to steer people away from drugs, they glamorize them.
Got mad respect for Demi she has the guts to tell I'm sure 90% of her peers don't have
It's only gutsy if it's hard. Some people overshare their lifestory to anyone who will listen, and some people will never share their hardships or just take years to open up. Demi has always loved attention and I doubt its hard for her.

Off topic but That dealer Taking a big L if he not hitting demi on the low lol
That's addiction for you. The ingestion of a mind altering substance is just a symptom of the underlying disease; not the disease itself.
Always got the vibes she wanted to go out of her way to get the drug addict rep only to find out its not a repuation but a legit brain disease
None wants to try heroin …no addict wants to be addicted to heroin and rhat right theor provessss this girl is using this shit for clout and money i said wht i said
@@cristyn_8733 bullshit I always wanted to try it as I’ve always been Interested in drugs. Done it like 10 times over 3 years as. I didn’t use it in order to forget a shit situation or deal with trauma. You only get physically addicted with a week of continuous use. Doesn’t make you addicted from one use lol
I got mad respect for celebrities who go public about their addiction struggles. It takes tremendous courage when you're a nobody let alone famous and always in the public eye. Wether you think she's doing it for clout or whatnot is irrelevant. She's still helping people by going public about it.
She is making money off of it…

How you doing now pal?
I love the fact she speaks out on it, I’m in my twenties and I model. My looks matter a lot and earlier this year I started smoking crack and even tried meth once. Very early stages. Luckily I hated meth, never wanted to do that but I liked the crack and it was very addicting but simply did not wanna live that life. Been 6 months sober and have no desire to ever try again. It’s all about the people you surround yourself with.

What bothers me the most is that her friends knew she had problems and they went partying to a bar and were egging her on to drink drink drink and I know it’s Demi’s choice what she does but she needs better friends.
True facts !!!!!
It's her choice just as easy as it is to fall into peer pressure. People in a group will often do things that they would never do alone, whether you are on the giving or receiving end of it. If you are on the receiving end, you're inclined to feel less bad about it because people pressured you into it. At the giving end, you feel less guilty for pressuring someone into doing something because you were not the only one. The guilt is always shared.
They either have the same problem of addiction or they are naive to how addiction works.
It’s very easy for us to condemn others being that we have a vastly objective viewpoint here on the interwebz. People are very good at convincing others that they’re ok. I’m sure many of those friends look back and feel guilty. But, Demi is responsible for herself and she demonstrates that very well in these clips. When you are an addict, it doesn’t matter if friends are egging you on or pleading with you to stop. Once that switch is flipped, absolutely nothing will stop you. Not even total isolation.
I'm a recovering addict & work in treatment, it's taught me a lot. It's really hard for me to respect her when she had promoted being 'California Sober'. Honestly, someone like me who's done hardcore drugs, it's hard for me to believe she's been only been able to smoke weed. It always starts like that, one drink or just weed. I've seen it a thousand times. I know 'everyone's different' but that's not clean & sober. I hope she's still doing well, but I wouldn't say she's person to look up to, especially when it comes to staying clean. That's just my opinion, no hate. Just working with people suffering, that's not something you promote. She's a celebrity, so she had all the money in the world to be and to mess up & go back to rehab. For a lot of people, they have one time to get their shit together, & if they relapse, it's over.
I agree with this as well. I’m in long term recovery and I’ve seen a lot of people go down the “just pot” route. Almost 100% of the time it ends up putting them right back where they started or worse. She’s unfortunately let her addiction become her whole identity, it’s sad to see.
@@jak2828 That's amazing! I hope it's working well for you. I know how hard it can be & whenever I hear or see people who are still working on their recovery, it makes me happy. Because the truth is, you never stop recovering it's forever. Idk if anyone has said this to you, bit I'm so very proud of you, you can do this, and when the going gets rough, just remember it passes! Then you'll be glad that you didn't give in. Keep doing you & surround yourself with people who believe & love you. You can do this. 💜☺️
@@KawaiiNecronomicon505 yup she's definitely still messing with shit on the low for sure

Always wanted to try it? That’s insane. At the end of the day she DID SAY she wanted to try it and that’s sad cuz anyone who thinks that at a young age will probably end up like her😕 I never realized what she was going thru till today. My heart.
It breaks my heart how common this is. I was 13 when I decided I wanted to try heroin. I didn't until I was 19. I hate that so many children will feel the same as me.
Mental health is at the root of all this pain and destruction.
@@me6271 right like not on no bs but like gods warmth seems like a deal breaker 🤣🤣
My buddy's wife always wanted to try it in the rear end. He wanted nothing to do with it, so they talked me into having a threesome with them. She wasn't very pretty, but she has a beautiful rear end, nice and round. She was going down on him while I got her from behind. I felt bad for him because she was having a hard time going down on him while I was plowing her rear end. I started really slowly but she kept asking me to give her everything I had. The next day her husband was laughing about how she was screaming like a banshee. She wants to do it again, but I'm not going to lie, her face has acne scars all over. But her rear end is absolutely beautiful. I'm hoping she will ride me backwards.
I tried H at age 21 bc I always wanted to try it.

@@Kat.Evangeline14 yep that's pretty common , sadly the vomiting doesn't last it clears and then you're fucked
I forgot where I heard this but someone once said to an addict, “cant you just stay here with the rest of us for a little while”
It’s such a simple line but powerful to me like life and happiness can exist outside of getting high. And it doesn’t have to be forever but if you’re struggling with addiction as I have come on and “stay with the rest of us for a little while”
What does that mean
I think it’s a softer way of trying to tell them to chill, stop, or even take a break.

@@sasukeuchiha4814 lel 💅🏻 ikr
Preach it. She is such a warrior lol. Ugh. This is a fucking joke. What a way to introduce drugs to a generation of depressed kids who have been forced into a life of isolation! Who better than a beautiful actress/singer that can evade consequence. The writing is on the wall. These Hollywood fucks are messing with our kids minds and giving them more ideas to cope with their insecurities. Propaganda bs. Such a warrior. She deserves a medal right?
"They" 🤣🤣🤣
No warrior..all her own choices, shes a grown ass adult
Unfortunately she will relapse again and people won't understand why because we are not in her shoes addiction is a serious disease no one can explain
Yeah the relapse seems imminent somehow.
You can’t say that. Odds are against her but they were against Robert Downie, Jr too and look at him
She’s doing the vivetrol shots which block the opioid receptors so she probably won’t relapse from opioid use. She’s pretty much just gotta watch the alcohol addition now
We all have differences in our biology as individual human beings, the real reason for the attraction to drugs varies greatly in each addicted or dependant person, for a start a persons perception of His/Her senses vary so much from person to person, I argue that addiction is not a disease at all, I think it is the BIGGEST mistake in the fight to help people get clean. There are so many different reasons that people choose to use drugs.
Person A
may feel normal before they decide to take drugs, and just want to party harder and they just use at certain events.
Person B
May be depressed or have mental health issues and desperately needs to numb their pain.
Person C
May be really shy and seeks to become more confident and a certain drug may really help them.
Person D
This person may just want to feel as messed up as possible and will take just about anything to get high.
Person E
May be using drugs to improve performance in anything from sports to having focus and getting less distracted.
Some people want drugs for perverted sex acts and want to feel turned on.
Person F
May have a combination of the above..
But all of these persons plays with the risk of being addicted and their addictions will vary in many ways, like some people may not have morals, they steal they rob people, they do anything to get drugs, they may hide behind the addiction disease theory, but really they are just scum and will lie at any chance to get drugs, these people give drugs a really bad name.
Some people can get along fine without drugs, some people can get along feeling really active and happy most of the time, but unfortunately, some people lack certain brain chemicals that help to generate happiness and or have other problems with the brain and use drugs as if they are their own doctor only trying to fix a problem that other medical means have failed (I am in this category, I have schizophrenic episodes, and am scizotypal with severe depression) so I lack enthusiasm when I am without my drug, a drug that a lucky prescription helped me find that works to eliminate almost all of my illness. these people are in a totally different group than the above but can still obviously become addicted and their reasons to take drugs may change. Some people in this last group may just live miserably and accept it, but for some it is just too disabling therfore the notion is set to find a way to feel good. If it is a really bad situation and no other treatments have worked, even the nicest of people will seek to experiment with drugs. Once a mentally sick feels healed with a type of drug, life can seem worth living, enthusiasm is back and the depression has gone and all is great.. until the drug wears off.. Then a person can feel even worse than before they used drugs. WHY HAVE SCIENTISTS NOT INVENTED A CLEAN DRUG THAT HAS NO HORRIBLE SIDE EFFECTS THAT JUST MAKE PEOPLE HAPPY ARGHHHH. If happiness and feeling content is present most of the time then the desire to live is back, and the energy to do whatever is back, and all is fixed. Anti depressants are not the answer for me, for 99% It may help a bit but a stronger sense of feeling content is needed for the really ill people. Seems like a simple fix that could save thousands of lives... WHERE IS IT FFS
but fortunately she will have the best rehab help more than your average human ¬_¬ lol
the beautiful thing about demi is that even as she tells about the horrible things she has done and how life almost had its way with her badly, it permanently shines through that she is a good, good person from the bottom of her heart. She should know this. Even with all the demons. Oftentimes it's the better people that get left in shambles by the ways of life.

Right over ya head
@@jennxv3 do you know anything about addiction ? Religion is one of the main ways people get help. A lot of people look to a higher power to help them. When they know they are defenseless
Unfortunately, I wouldn’t be surprised if Demi is still using because when she tried all those drugs it’s really hard to quit. I know how powerful these drugs are. I just hope she stays clear of “H” that’s not surprisingly can be laced with fentanyl that will kill you. Going to rehab is great ONLY if the addict wants to quit. If they don’t, once there out of rehab if they were forced into treatment by the courts, they will get “high” and be an addict again. Being an addict will be always be a challenge as we don’t know when life and our attitudes will change over time. Those triggers we get, that will lead us down the wrong path of destruction to ourselves again. I hope Demi has a good support group setup, so she can stay sober for the rest of her life. ❤️
MAaan stfu fbi
Me too...I admire it...being in her position of fame and money most either end up killing themselves 4 real. ..don't get a 2nd chance. I never had the money or fame and in a way that's been a good thing....cos this was my comment I wrote on this bit tonight. ...
I lived on cracks n heroin for over 20 yrs!!! Including all drugs since I started at 11/12 yrs old...and went through the alphabet of drugs...now I'm 41 and clean from them ALL!!! But only this year it's happened...where I got to the "Had Enuf, I'm Done" time!!
No1 understands y I look 29 at 41 with the life I've led...must b good genes!!! Cos I've never had money...never had any healthy lifestyle, opposite infact...been homeless...living in a tent with my then b/f, got abused at 11-13 sexual, sold my body as an escorts for 10yrs (for heroin&crack or coke)...I was a junkie! On snowballs!! I was on the edge...overdosed on crack/coke 4 times and had fits...but didn't care if I lived or died. Glad I'm out other side this year but fk was it hard...but u now I don't have ANY interest in drugs!!! Now my strong willpower is back...like I always had b4 Heroin...cos that's the main 1 that obliterates ur willpower. None b4 it did. Then snowballing heroin & crack together in needle is even worse...that changed me ENTIRELY!!! In every way!

"I've always wanted to try it"
That truly baffles me, how ANYONE could say that knowing the aftermath
Funny thing. Drug addiction is linked to higher IQ.
And drugs are over stigmatized. At least heroin is. Meth and crack crack cocaine not so much. Whenever you see people stumbling like a zombie that’s probably not heroin by itself. It jus doesn’t do that. Fent or a Xanax + heroin mix.
People want experiences. It’s not like you put a needle in your arm 1 time and your life is destroyed. It takes A LOT of heroin to get addicted within a month, even as “highly” addictive as it is. People push through and keep on using even when they know they are doing too much, erode they start experiencing withdrawals. All responsibility is on the user, and not on the drugs.
@@matt9383 right! What is with these addicts giving life advice “heroin isn’t that addictive” the fuck it is! Amazing anyone would say this shit. Why would anyone try and convince others that heroin or any other hard drug “isn’t that bad”. Drives me absolutely nuts! I live with roommates that do coke all the time and see what it does to their lives. It is absolutely disgusting.
These are the things you cuddle with in the dark. Deep in darkness, no one knows
yes that was shocking to me. The struggles she has had yet that is her thought. I hope she makes it through all this but she has so many addictions.
I’m so happy Demi Lovato is coming out in full details about all this, glad she’s okay and I really hope this helps those in addiction.

But yet when they see a junkie on the street they wouldn't even give them more than a sideways glance.
I hope people who say she's brave try not to judge real people who are addicts
This is why people like her need to continue to speak on their experiences
Youre just making assumptions about strangers
I think she should wait a few years a sobriety to tell her story. She keeps telling her story a little early.
Her o.d. was in 2018...2 years ago...as a recovering addict myself there is no perfect place to be in to share your story. We are taught to share our story and share our hope and strength, we are also taught to take it one day at a time and understand whether someone has 1 day clean or 1,000 relapse can happen to any addict.
@@jessicaabbassi1140 as normal people I get what you're saying. As celebrities it's publicity already. It's not inspiring, it's not courageous.

Just saying.
@@eliatorres2486 if you understand addiction at all then you would understand it is an incurable disease. Someone cannot simply stay sober and be in so much trauma,pain etc and stay clean alone for strangers they don't know. It has to be one's choice. Relapse is a part of many addicts journey, mine included. She also has mental illness which she openly talks about and that is also not curable. You seem to lack understanding, knowledge and empathy for those who aren't like you. There are a lot of great resources to educate yourself on mental health and addiction. You can also sit in NA meetings etc to learn and understand about addiction and rhe program. Its easy to judge or feel a certain way about something you don't experience and don't have to struggle with. I was clean fir 10 years and relapsed...unfortunately it happens to many, what matters is always trying again and that she seems to want to do. Also if you watch her documentary she takes ownership over her choices but explains what lead to it. Addicts are powerless over addiction, we learn that in the program, however we can take it one day at a time and relapse or not choose to move forward and never stop fighting for recovery even if we sometimes fail. 🙏
@@eliatorres2486 also in a world where most celebrities wont address or even try to be aware of their issues or what they do she is brutally honest when she could not do interviews and just completley neglect the matter together. Thats pretty damn brave when millions are watching. Also as an addict seeing her fall after 6 years which is a long time for an addict but continue to try to move forward is inspiring. Guessing your not an addict so there isn't much I could say to make you understand if yiu haven't experienced it or seen it firsthand.
@@eliatorres2486 she literally relapsed due ti feeling immense pressure iver so many things and what your saying is proving her point. Its not her responsibility to be perfect cuz she is a celebrity. Do you know how many celebritues are or were addicts or have experimented etc?

It can be difficult to be sober. It’s an emotional roller coaster. I know there were many sleepless nights where she sat up crying. The moments where she folded and had to look at herself with all these d rugs around, alone and she doesn’t want to really even do it, but now you have physical withdrawals and they are almost unimaginable. I used to make fun of her. I’m older now, I’m happy we’re both living in our truth.
Yeah, definitely NOT taking my sobriety advice from Demi Lovato..
This is so far beyond detrimental to individuals who cannot afford (literally & figuratively) to be "California Sober."
It blows my mind how completely out of touch this woman has become.
She has ZERO regard for her fans and/or people attempting to embrace sobriety, out of either desire OR complete desperation.
Not everyone has your luxuries, Demi.
Agree. She also has a major brain injury and permanent damage from her drug overdose which means she might not even see the full scope of all of it. It's sad to see people battling addiction. California sober is toxic bullshit
She has no problem doing drugs but had a whole problem with froyo. Yeah ok 😂

It’s a scary and dark path to take. I’m scared for her because addicts relapse multiple times. I pray that she remains clean for as long as possible without relapsing. Especially, people who have been addicted to heroin. That stuff is the devil. Scary wow
I've never gotten addicted with drugs because the highs are too scary for me. The consequences and constant overdosing made me want to stop. And I never went to the hospital I was one LUCKY COOKIE.
Yeah... the physical dependence is the hardest part bc detoxing feels so damn shitty. Currently in rehab.
Its wild how our biology has such a massive impact on the development of addiction. I've tried every drug once and never got addicted ever. Never felt the urge to do it again with anything.
Thank you so much for sharing!
Incredibly brave for telling her story. It’s like watching one of my childhood icons become an adult hero to me. Not only did she struggle with addiction but she recovered from some of the most addictive if not the most addictive drugs in the world. A lot of people died fighting the fight she did and it could’ve been a very different story.
Her new song substance has lyrics real and raw. As someone myself who is struggling with substance abuse I can honestly say she inspires me the most to get clean and not “end up in a casket” lol.
Addiction can take over you but if Demi did it we can too.
How is not "ending up in a casket" funny? 🤨 🤔
I don't get the 'lol' after that statement. Sounds like a very serious & great goal to have & truly want to achieve...
She’s a very unhinged and unstable individual I hope you have better role models than just her. Narcissistic to say the least
You really gotta be a JUNKIE if she's your "adult hero" lmao 💀🤦
Bless her for sharing her story.
I’m really glad she dropped the California sober thing. She has permanent brain damage from her overdose, the severe one, because she’s had more than one. I’ve been there and I’ve been struggling since I was 16. It’s a daily battle.
Comment section, be nice. Some of us have made mistakes we regret and it'd be hypocritical to judge. I'm glad she's doing better and letting others know her story.
she needs to move on, it seems as if she’s just using it to remain relevant at this point. Her fifteen minutes of fame are up. Also butt chin.

*Pulls out comically large spoon*
I've been a fan of her music for a long time. I hope she can get her shit together and focus on her work. We're all rooting for her.
15 months sober rn, stay strong Demi
I'm not proud of her actions but I'm proud of her sharing her story, hopefully this helps someone notice how easily and playfully they can fall for a lifetime of endless struggle for not only themselves but everyone around them.
“I’ve always wanted to try it”
??????? Why?????
That’s the problem right there.
Hard to have proper values when everyone around you is so messed up.
She talks about trying drugs like trying different drinks. It's not the same thing.
I can imagine how hard is it for her to speak up about this . I love demi and i hope she stays safe 💕
0:11 I’m sorry but that is just weird. Who does crack for the first time and literally says to themselves “but first let me take a selfie”
To see when they are sober again
When I relapsed in Oct 2018 with heroin after being clean for almost 3 years, I would record myself on my iphone camera for whatever reason idk. Was it to see what I looked like fucked up and to show and discourage myself next time I am tempted to use? Was it to have documented incase I overdosed? Maybe subconsciously it was both of those reasons. I just recently had to delete those videos when I came across them in my hidden album because being that I haven't used since then, when I watched it, it was almost triggering me to wanna use and so I just went ahead and deleted it because I am definitely not wanting to go down that route again.
How do you know it was a selfie?
She didn't start doing drugs because she was depressed or had issues, she started doing drugs because she liked it. Big difference
She was 13 when she started😭 obviously she had massive issues, no well-adjusted young teen starts doing pills
I’m still trying to understand why she would take pics of herself while under the influence.
Right?! Its gotta be for attention. I swear she plans all this shit out for clout/empathy/relevance.
Perhaps it was a cry for help.
Why do celebrities never get in trouble for doing drugs.
In general I don’t know in her specific case if it turns into a medical situation to the point your practically on a death bed you can’t be arrested for it also lost celebs have secret hotspots where only celebs are allowed or they have nightclubs in their mansions so they aren’t ever caught and to just talk about it or sing or rap nothing can be done as there is no physical visual evidence of it being done
But also regardless they gonna have the money to bail themselves out so nothing can be done to them the rich are powerful to a certain extent
Thank you so much Devi for sharing
This is extremely transparent. Good for her that this helps raise awareness and heal
Via Instagrams, also on Telegrams with the with the above handle..
*Grewnation*
„Wasn’t doing drugs but drinking“ alcohol is one of the worst drugs!!!
Look at her body language when Dj Khaled says 6 years sober
It’s crazy I’ll never forget that day, I went into labor with my daughter on July 25 2018. She was born addicted to methadone, but she was such a miracle baby, they thought she’d have to go to the NICU. They kept her an extra 24 hours after I was discharged and I was with her in a little room during that entire time. The drs and nurses never saw anything like this before. They would do a scoring to see how bad she was detoxing. If she had hit an 8 3 x’s in a row then she’d have to go to the NICU. Instead her score went from 8,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 over night! So for those that don’t believe in a higher energy or positive prayer I feel sorry for you. I surround myself that have me and my family’s best interest at heart. To make a long story longer, I had ODed for the first time in my life by sniffing 1 bag. I was in traffic and last I remembered was hitting the brakes and I was out. When the cops came they said I was purple from the neck up. So I go to the hospital and they asked is there a chance ur pregnant. I said no, well it came back positive. And the only sexual experience I had, I was raped. I know the kid who did it and his father was the head detective of the state police in my area so I couldn’t even go against him if I tried.
I decided to keep her, and now she’s a beautiful little red head with bright blue eyes and curly hair like Shirley Temple. She now has a father, he came into my life when she was about 14 months, and I had known him 4 years prior to that otherwise I wouldn’t have allowed him around my angel. I did everything by myself in the beginning. Including giving birth. My mother came right after I had her but I’ll never forget
I feel her pain it took a very long time for me to pull through the addiction

@@georgekirren4444 🤡
The easiest way to stay sober is to never try hard drugs , you never know if your body and brain will be able to not get addicted to it . Why would you risk it knowing that could be the begging of the end for you
Being where I have been and getting out of it with no money then going back and getting back out again, I think we will end up reading about her overdose like we did mac Miller.
She was always around glitz and glamour she never saw what drugs really do. In the moment you don’t think of what could go wrong only what’s going right whether she had a bad feelings that day or not sometimes your gut feeling isn’t strong enough it takes one choice to make a whole rainstorm drown you causing you life long pain, regrets and damage. The choices you make today will shape your life forever but you can focus on what scarred you or traumatised you or you can learn from your scars and refocus. I hate the people around her I feel like most of them are fake… knowing what she knows now she would have never done it but you wise from your mistakes that’s what makes us grow. She just needed someone to be there, really be there someone who actually cared…

@@georgekirren4444 George why you so curious
@@stormi1637 Stormi why you so cold
Yes absolutely, well explained
her: you got coke and xanax?
dealer: no but i got crack and heroin
her:🤔
this has to be one of the dummest interviews i’ve watched in a long time. i hope she is doing well and is beating her addiction.
I don't believe a word coming out of her mouth.
Why do people assume that people who do Drugs are sad, troubled, or doing it to forget about reality? 🤔Some people just like "Pleasure" but fail to realize it could cost you your life. I almost died from Drugs and God sparred my life.
The truth sets you free. She’s doing everything she can to fight this and she’s doing an awesome job.
@Eugene Konyha You are so wrong...
Talking about addiction and doing nothing- not staying away from drugs, dismantling her schroom room, gling out to meet real people, volunteer in shelter for homeless, for animals, in orphanages, in hospitals, old peoples homes. Thats what she should do. Fire all her employees. They are only enablers. Go camping, hiking, living in nature. Not 5* hotels. In tent. Feel the earth. pick your food. Feel alive. She feels dead inside.
The bigger a deal people make of one accomplishing sobriety is not helpful. It's a reminder that you messed up and somehow drives the memories towards that direction. It seems to be something that is better left in the past.
The fact that she is worst now then in this video makes me so sad.. like fr fr I hope one day she finally is over this! I know those things take time… and I know it’s difficult but I do wish healing for her
When I heard you got addicted the first time...I believed it.
My story is very similar to hers… crack , cocaine, herion, Xanax, opiates, meth, and so much more… I tried to use it recreationally.. I thought I had it under control. I am now sober from everything since October 2020. I’ll never go back. I’m so happy she’s sober now.
Who takes pictures of themselves smoking heroin though 😂
quirky 🤪
the things people do when they're high, it's a whole different world for a while
People do alot of wild things when they're struggling inside
I’m sorry but at the “Demi on crack for the first time” part. I died. 🤣
I can’t imagine preforming live and then someone is like “congrats 6 years sober” and then all your fans start cheering. Personally I’d feel so ashamed and bad and hate myself even if I was still sober
Exactly and these groups want you to keep sharing your story. I couldn’t stay sober in the groups because it’s bought up over and over and over. Finally I stopped going and focused on a positive future and I haven’t done any drug in 9 years. I rarely think about it anymore only when it’s bought up. Move on
exactly…
Addiction is so unbelievably manipulative and cunning. I got out of treatment the middle of July and it's been such a struggle
For me, it’s the lack of remorse for what they put their family and friends through. I saw ZERO guilt and zero accountability from the documentary. The victim narrative is STRONG with this one.
Not using heroin recreationally..that’s a wild thought process🥴
"Using heroine recreationally "
You killin me 👀
If Only Whitney Got the same Support I’m Glad Demi Overcome her struggles
My god the way she said I always wanted to try it got me howling 😂😂😂
u just dont get it
@@FinnishNationalist123 I think this person gets it completely, actually.
@@aiai-j7i i have absolutely no idea why i commented that
damn she really tried every single fucked up drug she could... thats really sad honestly
She "always felt like trying" heroin and crack?
She was an addict
Well she was an addict ? What did you expect lol
When you are in pain ( from TRAUMA ) you will pick up anything you can get your hands on ✨🙏💞🙏✨
@@NischalD17 she will always be an addict, it never goes away.
That's the disease of addiction and usually to mask emotional and mental things going on and trauma, internal pain etc.
Remember kids, stupid is as stupid does.
I think I like her even more because she did share her story and she isn't trying to sugar coat how bad drugs can effect a person's life. Regardless if your rich or poor drug's will effect you negatively either way.
Now think about people who don’t have the money to go to rehab and just have to look for other ways to deal with it
I’ve always found it strange that they don’t actually have much emotion in their voice and face about it but it’s just like here’s what’s happening. It’s me.
xanax and cocaine is one of the worst and addictive drug combinations ever known. Don’t mix them if you do either one. Stay safe out there.
Xanax and heroin. Opiates and barbiturates. Not saying Xanax and coke are safe, but Xanax and heroin/pills are way more dangerous.
She’s high as a kite during this interview.
the words ‘recreational’ and ‘heroin’ don’t even fit in the same sentence 🤣
I wish people on the streets had the chance to get clean and have a support system
how does demi maintain her good looks while on so much drugs
For her to of struggled with addiction like the person below me said it’s crazy how one can look who has tons of money verses regular people like us look like crack heads and all .. she’s beautiful and stayed beautiful even through her addiction
All people have issues . We shouldn’t judge somebody on anything they’ve done .
How is Demi doing these days. I wish her well.
I think she's doing well, she was just on tour with her band in the last few months
She junkie botch /:
This is why I quit being Lovatic.
Drugs, alcohol, pills, atleast 10 ex-boyfriends, being non-binary,... Something's definitely wrong with this girl.
