Trying to get sober being a non-celebrity is hard enough. As an ex-addict the title of this video caught my eye. I thought I'd be dead by my own hand before I turned 30, but the survivor in me had other plans. I've been sober 19 years (consecutive😏 )& next month I'll be 61 years old.
@@annav6998, possibly… probably… still charms the hell out of me… which, i suppose, is the best evidence that she’s been practicing melting middle-aged men since childhood.
it’s like that everywhere it’s just not known. Just look at foster care aging out statistics over 1,000 kids die of abuse every year so it’s unimaginable how many kids are being abused
Recovered addict here - in my opinion, addicts are different from regular people because they use drugs to mask deeper issues. I've been clean and sober for 4 years and the idea of altering my mind with any substance seems like the worst possible thing I could do. Once you get you mind, body, and spirit into a balanced state, you sober experience of reality is a thousand times better than anything you get from drugs. I'm grateful that my addiction forced me to do the inner-work that made me realize this.
I’ll speak for myself. California sober would not work for me. I have 7 years clean and sober. If I smoked it would be a matter of time before I just went and got my drug of choice. Many people go on the marijuana maintenance program. Some do it till they are ready to put everything down and some don’t. Personally I take no chances I like how my life is now.
Congrats on four years! My sobriety birthday is today coincidentally, and I completely agree. The last two years of being sober would have been impossible if I hadn't abstained completely and worked a program. But more power to her.
I went 1 year 7 months sober and had a relapse in November and I’ve been drinking 20 units a day since. Yesterday was my first day tapering off alcohol. I will be totally sober again and have my life back 💪🏼 Update: 2 months sober! 🙏🏼
Battling addiction right now, I could not imagine going through this with the world watching me, making memes about my OD and getting hate for it every day. I wish her the best! Edit: just so yall know ive been off pain pills since April 14th which was my bday and I have yet to even think about going back. Its hard because im in genuine chronic pain but id rather be sober and in pain than be doped up all day unable to feel actual feelings
@@stee8487 doesnt make it that much easier. So sick of people thinking all addicts would magically be able to get sober if they had a million dollars. No, 99% of them are just gonna look at it as unlimited drug money. So thats different with her just because shes famous too? Makes absolutely no sense. It would only make sense to someone who has no idea what addiction is truly like.
this response, is in a nutshell, pretty much the sum of all joe rogan's podcasts. he blurts out the most retarded things at the most inappropriate times. im guessing thats why hes got the following that he has?
It’s not for everybody that’s for sure. It comes with a lot of perks endless supply of whatever you want good or bad but every mistake you make growing up is magnified a million times because your famous and opened yourself to public opinion!!!!
@@devinpledger2251 you can be conditioned to be aware of what the world is thinking of you. You can be aware of society's judgement. Yes you could be strong enough to rise above it But thats easier if the conditioning comes when the brain has neurological development if its young the brain makes links on a subconscious level
Been “California sober” for 12 years and swear by it for me personally. Never relapsed on harder stuff again. More people need to understand the value of harm reduction but as Joe said people want to think of it in absolutes. Recovery is not black and white.
No doubt. Everyone wants absolutes nowadays, whether it be with politics, drugs, diet, all of this shit. Why should any addiction be solved by going cold turkey or completely cutting it over time. Look at people that crash diet, or go on major diets, the fail rate isn’t even astonishing anymore. I firmly believe that moderation is the answer to most if not all of these problems. California sober is the essence of being happy. I’m Talking as a highly functional alcoholic. Although I do go on extended amounts of time of cold turkey but only because my moderation has gotten me used to Not drinking, as soon as I drink though I fight the need to consume by keeping my consumption moderated, instead of a bottle a night, I drink a bottle in 3-5 days But only if the bottle is opened. A way I keep myself cold turkey is by keeping the ‘Cork’ as a barrier
Great, that may work for you- as you stated, everyone's recovery is different. but for a ton of people, weed and (especially) alcohol, can be an immediate trigger into relapse. This "California sober" (LOL) thing she's doing is absolutely playing with fire. Do not at all be surprised if she relapses. Coming from another heroin addict, I really hope the best for her, but she is literally playing with her life by doing this.
Yeah and that’s what works for you and that’s great. It didn’t work for me however or anybody else that I’ve known except a few people. Seriously though glad it works for you
Because they have to denigrate everyone not of their "tribe". In LA saying youre from Idaho, means youre at least three "-ist's" and leftist isnt one of them.
Demi: "I had three strokes. A heart attack and multiple organ failure and I still have brain damage from it." Joe: "What kind of brain damage?" Demi: "I have blind spots in my vision and I also had hearing loss from everything." Joe: *"That's crazy.. Have you ever tried DMT?"*
I’m calling BS on three stokes ive seen ppl have a single stoke and you can still clearly see the effects so her having 3 stokes and a heart attack and look completely normal 2 years later I’m not buying it. Plus a heart attack and organ failure but need no surgery’s give me a break I could be wrong but I doubt it? If anyone knows the truth let me know.
I've never really liked her genre of music, but I appreciate her as a person finding herself. That's not easy, especially for someone who grew up in the spotlight - being judged on every aspect of her life and choices. Glad she's on a better path.
I’m sensing a narcissist in our presence. “What a lot of people don’t know..” is the phrase that has been tossed throughout this whole journey. She clearly doesn’t know or is willing to admit that all the toxic things that she has been doing IS and will ALWAYS be the source of why she is miserable. That’s why you need to work your ass of in trying to overcome these obstacles that life throws in your way in order to test you and show you that you’re more capable than you think you are.
The difference between an eating disorder and a drug addiction is that you have to eat. You need food to survive so it actually makes sense to me that you would figure out a way to overcome eating disorder. Drugs are different you don't need them. That is something that once you start doing it is very hard to control
After an Narcotics Anonymous meeting, I said to the guy running it. I drink and smoke weed occasionally, Are there any type of meetings for people who drink or smoke weed, but don’t do heavy drugs. He said “ya, it’s called a fucking party, are you serious ?” I laughed so hard and yes it was a serious question.
Haha, I remember in highschool, a kid's Christian Mom called the police on him, who tore up his room, and tried to send him to rehad after finding a baggy of weed.
looool.... In all seriousness though, Alcohol is a INSANELY powerful drug. 50$ worth of booze can easily kill you (and put you in worse state then crack, opiates/opiods, etc) . The substance is prettty addictive. What makes things worse society really makes it so easy to drink long enough to become addicted (sports events,dancing, family events etc). I once was getting the shakes after december to january. i had so many family,bar,hockey,new years events and got wasted at every one . The physical withdrawl is one of the few that can truly kill you by itself. I had methadone doctors tell me serious alcohol withdrawl is more dangerous then opiate withdrawl. Normally it takes a co morbidity for morphine withdrawl to kill you. This isn't the case with alcohol.... To me its pretty crazy you buy such a insanely powerful stubstance but not another... Im for more liberty but for far more harsher drunk driving penalties. Like 10 years license revoke at least for driving SERIOUSLY drunk (not just 2 beers )
@@MichaelPhillips-jw4bj there are a lot of drugs that affect the GABA receptors and share a similar withdrawal risk as alcohol does, it’s just that alcohol is the most common and well known of all of them. Glad you’re alright after all that.
I really don’t give a shit about celebrities but I hope this girl conquers her demons. Seems like a nice enough person and these struggles are very real. Best of luck to her
Im just not buying into all of this. Yez she struggles with addiction but making the whole show around it pushing all the usual celebrity buttons: bulimia, bullying, being bisexual all of a sudden...
This poor girl will never recover. She’s just going to spend a lifetime relapsing. She’s obsessed with staying relevant and in social media. And that obsession is going to keep too many negative things in her life. Her latest tweet being complaints about there being low cal and disgust free froyo and how it’s preying upon people. She can’t even process there are people who can’t have sugar or don’t want to get fat eating 1500 calorie bowls of froyo. Smh
I am so grateful for you, that you shared Demi’s documentaries. They are relatable to me; as far as, being bullied, abused, raped and a lot of other things I don’t want to talk about. If there was a way; please, I’d like Demi to know, by her displaying her courage to own her own demons, battle them, and be able to talk about it on camera, gives me hope & a bit of strength to keep going. Also, thank you for your documentaries. I refer to them, at times; and then I feel less alone. God bless you, Demi Lovato, and everyone who put this together.
@@toris5605 I am doing, average. Praying, Demi’s story, and her songs, keep my outlook, positive. They help me to keep to my goals, hour by hour; within my sufferings.
Maybe Demi lovato should come to grips with the fact that maybe the Hollywood life is NOT for her. Some people can’t handle it. It’s nothing to be ashamed of. Sadly, the money and the lifestyle traps you in that world. You can’t stop.
It’s not just the lifestyle and money. Even if she would decide to become a nurse tomorrow and give all her saved money to people in need. A person like her can never get back to normal life, she crossed a Line of fame that her anonymity is gone forever. She can’t just live in the suburbs like Jane Doe from Ohio can..
@@planetruther yes there’s no turning back once you hit that level of fame. I can only imagine having that kind of pressure on me 24/7. The body weight issues, paparazzi, crazy fans, expectations, not being able to be yourself and acting for the sake of your career. You literally sell your soul to be in that business. And yes it has its perks. More money than you can spend, adulation, popularity, attention. But it comes at a price. It seems like she’s not happy in that life at this point. But she’s at a level where you can’t just get out. She has a lifestyle that she can’t turn away from. Some people live the celebrity life easily. The pressure never gets to them and they make it look easy. Her not so much.
Gene Simmons from KISS has never needed drugs or alcohol in his life but he was probably a sex addict. He actually respected his mother and what she went through with the holocaust that he would never embarrass her by using drugs or alcohol.
“Drugs saved my life,” me too!! I’ve wanted to die for a good portion of my adolescence and adult life, and drugs for me were akin to a temporary mental/psychological death. I always used to say that drugs were the next best thing to death...dude I’m so glad I’m not alone in this 🤣 and it’s been 4.5 years since I’ve had to use anything like that...thank god for weed and therapy
Uhhhh Yeah....I smoke weed all the time. If you don’t believe it’s another form of a getaway you’re stuck in the trap 😂...that being said I still love my weed 😂
I'm glad I stumbled upon this. Never knew her really. She's a very nice person. I feel bad she went through what she did, but God gave her a chance to live again from her mistakes, and that's how we know she is an amazing person. Hopefully she's keeping her positivity.
I feel like I got more information about what happened and how she is now physically and what she’s doing to recover more here then her actual docu series

That’s crazy Overdosing does mess up your vision and hearing it’s so scary. I overdosed on my seizure medicines because I was taking the wrong dose On accident and I was basically blind for a week
Its crazy how many of the beloved outgoing shining stars of my childhood were truly in more pain than my 7 year old self could imagine. Especially the Disney stars. I'm glad some of them are able to find peace in this world.
@@elcid9054 grass is always greener. Right now, in your mind, it’s easier to kick drugs than make more money and move up the socioeconomic ladder. Maybe once you’re wealthy and have all the stability and materialistic things you want, making money would be a lot easier than kicking a drug
Caffeine, sugar, Advil, alcohol, mushrooms, Kratom, are all drugs. Unfortunately, society has dictated which are acceptable, regardless of benefit to harm potentials.
@UR DADDY No one wakes up and wants to do "herion" you start with pills it progresses! If it was just as simple as "don't do heroin" we wouldn't have the epidemic in America. You should go educate yourself remember: You important, you special , you SMART"
It’s kind of hard to empathize with someone like her from the POV of an average Joe. She was a Disney star by 12. She was probably a millionaire by 18 and has never worked a “real job”.
@@angelgjr1999 that doesn’t mean she isn’t a person and goes through real like problems. She was raped at 16. I was raped at 19 the first time and have a regular job. It doesn’t matter what you do for a living, people go through shit, have emotions, and cope in different ways.
@Luis Collado What you have not seen the symbolism and the amount of celebrities have spoken out? eve jfk talked about it, tupac LMAOOO. The word conspiracy to make it seem like its only told by "crazy people"
I have a friend thats a former alcoholic, he lost his job, his family, his kids, everything. Went to rehab, come out, was good for a bit but was totally unhappy. He started drinking again, but before he got too addicted he started smoking weed. He doesn't drink any alcohol, he has a good job back, visition with his kids, and he smokes in the evenings and is in a good place and this has been going on for years.
That’s awesome. Works for some people doesn’t for other. I have a buddy deep in alcoholism and I just don’t see how he’s going to get out of it:/ 29years young and his hands tremble when he’s not drinking
@@jdbsoccer100 he can do it but only if he wants to. No ones too far gone, but they have to want it - that’s the hard part. He’s so young! It wasn’t until I was 30 when I wanted to do/be better. I’ve been California sober for several years now and I believe weed has helped keep me sober. My emotions just go crazy sometimes and it’s uncontrollable... having a joint ready for me in the evening gives me something to look forward to when I’m struggling. And that truly makes all the difference.
Dunno how your making this claim that suddenly he will be cured because he smokes weed ,I smoked weed for years gave up because I had mental issues ,but I will tell you one god damn thing,there's no way in hell are your more productive than alcohol your worse your can't work you can't function and if you smoke weed full on like I used to it's smoke eat sleep smoke eat sleep ,how's this make anyone functual?
I'm 46, hit rock bottom a few years ago, got help, therapy, meds then finally I quit smoking weed. That was a huge step. Soon after quitting weed I got off the meds. A year off the meds and I've quit smoking nicotine. Now I'm working on drinking less. You either get mentally stronger, or you don't.
It's all on how you handle yourself. Some people make momey from those pruducts. Cannabis, alcohol, it should all be in moderation, idk why people suffer and use substances to cope. I used to, it was really bad. It didn't work, it was just like when I'd cut. It never works, just makes you think you've escaped. Makes you feel like you found a safe place within the pain, and that never works. It's like staying in an abusive relationship, just isn't healthy. Take care.
It's all about progress, whether someone is choosing moderation or complete cessation, and whether or not that will be now or forever. People are affected differently on an emotional and chemical level and progress cannot be compared. People should always be encouraged to reflect on what they are doing and feel empowered to admit failure with condemnation. Giving support is the most critical aspect of rehabilitation and our society is so fucking awful at it.
My daughter suffers from depression and anxiety. There’s no conversation or amount of love that makes it go away. You just learn to cope and keep moving as I see it. It’s very sad and there were no warning signs I could identify. I couldn’t help thinking , I hope my daughter doesn’t find herself in this place in her life where hard drugs become the answer or worse. I’m a tough dude and can take a lot, but watching my beautiful, intelligent, loving and driven daughter go through this...man words can’t explain. I wish the best in the future for Demi, my daughter and any others who suffer from these things as well. 🙏
How to heal from addiction and depression in LA: move. “I’m working hard not to offend anyone” - GIRL! That’s the problem with PC/woke culture. You’re caring so much about everyone else and everything around you that you have no sense of yourself. You’re suppressing (and in some cases oppressing) yourself to the point of physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual illness.
To be fair, part of being on that level of fame includes being aware about everyone else and everything around you. That level of success and wealth can really only be achieved when they are a part of youre priorities.
I’m Canadian sober. Marijuana is legal across our entire country. Every province it’s legal. So I assume it’s similar to California sober. But because not all states in America is it legal so that makes sense to me! I use it for chronic pain and I micro dose edibles I buy at a local dispensary and it’s such a healing medicine! I gift from Mother Nature!
I'm canadian and I wish it really wasn't legal. I had no health issues before. Now I had to move appartments 3 times because my neighbours smoked weed and it made me sick. Not just a slight headache, I wouldn't be able to sleep, I'd cough my lungs out for hours, I'd have a terrible migraine, mood swings, hoarse throat... to name a few. And to make matters worse, I work from home. So I couldn't work anymore and the authorities can't be bothered because it's FUCKING LEGAL. So yeah, as much as the junkie kids enjoy their new drug, a lot of people suffer from THEIR choices and everyone would be better off without it.
@@camille8010 that hilarious. Unless there are nonstop smoking, then there’s no way to affect you that much, unless you have some sensitive lungs and health issues. So it sounds like a YOU problem. Seems pretty selfish to wish that other people should be penalized for using something natural like weed, just because you happen to have a sensitivity to it. Not very Canadian sounding to me.
@@sheenaldeo It sure sounds like you know my health condition far better than my doctor. perhaps you should give him a call and explain your medical analysis ? I don't have any lungs issue or sensitivity. And yes, the secondhand smoke was almost always there. The reason is simple, the person smoked once a day, and the smell and vapes infused in the walls and pipes. It would slowly disperse throughout the day, constantly making me cough and more and more sick from the exposure. As for the "natural" origin of weed, water is natural , why don't you drown in it ? or, wait, even better, I'd like you to try the all-natural-cure Belladonna? I'm sure you'll appreciate it :D. You really shouldn't accuse me of being selfish when you're the ones IMPOSING your choices on others and ruining other people's lives. Secondhand smoke is a huge problem, and its all because of your selfishness. Half the population is affected negatively by smokers, and the other half is actively ruining themselves. If we remove weed and cigarettes, 100% of the population will be in better health. Who's been selfish? Imagine if I ate a whole lot of junk food, but you're the one getting fat. Wouldn't you be mad??
@@johnmarron8654 hehehe It's the "I-dont-know-what-to-say-cause-kairos-is-right-but-i-dont-want-to-admit-it" attitude for me. It just made my day :p see ya pal.
Me- “ooooo she has a “treatment team”, so rich!” 🙄 Demi- “I overdosed on crack and heroin had 3 strokes and a heart attack!” Me- ....ok she needs a treatment team! 👀
Still really pathetic. A rich clown spending money on clownish behavior, and instead of cleaning herself up, she pays a team to hose her down, pathetic, no personality, this woman is more likeable on heroine.
Kidding aside, when someone tells you who they are, you aught to believe them. At least I general, unless they have warped views of themselves to the negative eg annorexia, but you get what I mean.
“I’m working so hard not to offend anyone.” - (Famous Name Here) How ridiculous a world we live in that people are being forced to live under a blanket of paranoia and oppression inflicted on them by a class of privileged loud mouthed Twitter hypocrites.
I want to say thank you to both of you for speaking about this. I don't often watch or listen to your videos but when I do I feel like my husband is around and I'm waiting for his laugh or " yeah yeah exactly bro" and well my husband passed away December 13 2019 because if an overdose from fentanyl.
Watching this has given me a newfound respect for Demi Lavato. I wrongly assumed things about her based of the tidbits I would come across about her life. This is a person who after going through addiction and mental turmoil, decided to own her truth, as she said, and found a way to rise above it. Kudos to you @Demilavoto. Im not particularly fond of her genre of music but I'm definitely a fan of her as a person now that I've heard how she is overcoming her addictions that started as a preteen. I'm rooting for her and wish her all the best.
@@Angelaaa1015 Yep, it’s a grift. And a very lucrative one at that. She’s been using the same formula for years and her gullible fans still haven’t sussed it out. The formula goes like this: get addicted, go into rehab, get “clean”, release an album of mediocre songs about how difficult it is being famous/addicted/overwieght/bullied by haters, do the talk show circuit to promote the album and tour, make a bunch of money, get addicted (again) and repeat as nece$$ary.
It's just vernacular. When libs say that and they aren't being aggressive, it just means "my understanding is X" We don't know very many things 100%. Not that there isn't a such thing as objectivity but when it comes to why people do things and how things affect other people, it's just educated guesswork and our ego plays a big role in our perspective.
@Benghali In Platforms And what is that result? Did you read what I wrote? They use it when they're talking about their perception of reality. Again, objectivity is definitely a real thing in certain contexts but in others it's not. If you pick unnecessary fights you're going to end up strung out. Some things radlibs are doing are extremely problematic but the existence of the term "my truth" is not one of them.
@Benghali In Platforms No, actually. Your issue is that you're lumping them all together. I'm right wing, but I'm not right wing in the way Ben Shapiro is, as an example. There are marxists on the left. They are concerned with class, eg Ant*fa (not sure if that's a censored word). There are cultural marxists, these are trans activists, third wave feminists, race essentialists. Power+privilege people, basically. The term "cultural marxist" is a lot more vague than "marxist." I've seen it used to describe a ton of groups on the left and right. She falls more into that second category. In LA though, people like her are intensely nonconfrontational. Listen to where she uses the term. She's saying "even when I say what I believe to be true, I have to be careful because I'm a celebrity and I only work if my reputation is intact." I think like with Marxism you're conflating all uses of the term with the most aggressive use of the term. She's not attacking truth. She's saying she's sincere when she speaks. That's a good thing, I would think.

But didn’t you have people that worked with you and guided you through recovery?

I hope she stays clean. I really like her. My younger sister is her biggest fan and Demi and I have a similar history with drugs (except i’m not famous). It’s really hard being an addict. I’ve been sober for 8 months and the world is just a freakin trigger for us. I admire everyone who can pull up a fight with their own demons. It’s not easy but is not impossible, i’m struggling but i’m staying sober day by day. It’s crazy how we change when we are sober and realize what the fuck was going on with us.. the judgement and pressure make everything more heavy but I’ve found a higher power that helps me with that. Good luck to everyone who are also in this battle and please stay sober!
I understand what she is saying and I’ve seen many people in Recovery who use something. For me, I will never trust my self to drink again. I hope the very best for her!
I had a very similar experience with weed where I was feeling very anxious after a death in the family so I would smoke to take the edge off but as soon as I stopped the anxiety came back 10 fold, I thought I was just crazy lol
California sober = find another addiction that gets you high, but you won’t die . You still be addicted to something but it’s healthier than hard drugs
You dont get physical addiction to weed like you do with heroin or crack. Its mental addiction that only effects weak minded people. Weed addiction is a choice dont misinform people.
Her vivitrol shot is to stop cravings for substances. I’m a fentanyl addict and I take vivitrol monthly, by shot, just like Demi. She can say it’s for bulimia or other things, but it’s for opiates. It stops cravings and prevents you from getting high by literally blocking your receptors from opiates attaching to them.
You still clean then? How long? What were you thinking when you decided to try fentanyl for the first time? Just trying to increase the high from heroin because it wasn't having the same affect as when you started? Thanks in advance
@@stevereimer5514 I was sixteen when I first tried heroin. I progressed from painkillers I got from hand surgery, which was the first time I was exposed to opioids and for an extended period of time too. Knowing that feeling, I gave heroin a try. I wasn’t addicted to pain killers or anything, yet. Did heroin every now and then, but the truth is, fentanyl is cheaper and better than heroin. Heroin Addicts don’t want heroin anymore, hell some can’t even find it since fentanyl is way more prevalent. Most of the time if you do get heroin, it has fentanyl or might just be entirely fentanyl. Otherwise you get heroin in a rock or tar form. Which is way more expensive than the fentanyl we get at $5 a cap, which is .1 of a gram (1.0). I’m 20 now. I’ve had lots of relapses. It’s not easy getting clean.
@Vracanje Vjecan don’t want to be clean? You’re fucking crazy man. I want to be sober. It’s the best thing in the world. Some people get it. Just think about sitting on a park bench, cool air. Taking a deep breathe, no worries, no thinking about how I have to get dope or money. It’s insane how I managed to keep getting dope and money to support the addiction, but I was always found a way. I’m stoned off weed right and and it’s late
Girl I am grateful that you shared your story. It seems tough to be in addiction and near death experience. I can’t imagine. Pray that things get better for you and you continue to do whatever you need to get better. Weed does have a lot of benefits as long as it is not done in excess, the right amount does have benefits. Also the different kinds, for different purposes is also something to look into. :)
Trying to get sober being a non-celebrity is hard enough. As an ex-addict the title of this video caught my eye. I thought I'd be dead by my own hand before I turned 30, but the survivor in me had other plans. I've been sober 19 years (consecutive😏 )& next month I'll be 61 years old.

Do you think her " California sober" is a good idea?
I’ll speak for myself. California sober would not work for me. I have 7 years clean and sober. If I smoked it would be a matter of time before I just went and got my drug of choice. Many people go on the marijuana maintenance program. Some do it till they are ready to put everything down and some don’t. Personally I take no chances I like how my life is now.
Congrats on four years! My sobriety birthday is today coincidentally, and I completely agree. The last two years of being sober would have been impossible if I hadn't abstained completely and worked a program. But more power to her.

Well, Demi just got triggered and pissed at a small business and tried to destroy them. So despite the weed, she still seems pretty miserable.
?? Details?
What?
???
Living a victim mindset will do that to ya.
It seems like your more miserable by holding on to things that you have no control over focus on your self instead off focusing on someone else
Battling addiction right now, I could not imagine going through this with the world watching me, making memes about my OD and getting hate for it every day. I wish her the best!
Edit: just so yall know ive been off pain pills since April 14th which was my bday and I have yet to even think about going back. Its hard because im in genuine chronic pain but id rather be sober and in pain than be doped up all day unable to feel actual feelings
Stay strong my friend
Hope you're in community as it's easier to do get through stuff.

The difference between you and her, is that she has millions of dollars and help at the tip of her fingers.
@@stee8487 doesnt make it that much easier. So sick of people thinking all addicts would magically be able to get sober if they had a million dollars.

It would only make sense to someone who has no idea what addiction is truly like.

Been “California sober” for 12 years and swear by it for me personally. Never relapsed on harder stuff again. More people need to understand the value of harm reduction but as Joe said people want to think of it in absolutes. Recovery is not black and white.
No doubt. Everyone wants absolutes nowadays, whether it be with politics, drugs, diet, all of this shit. Why should any addiction be solved by going cold turkey or completely cutting it over time.
Look at people that crash diet, or go on major diets, the fail rate isn’t even astonishing anymore.
I firmly believe that moderation is the answer to most if not all of these problems. California sober is the essence of being happy.
I’m Talking as a highly functional alcoholic. Although I do go on extended amounts of time of cold turkey but only because my moderation has gotten me used to Not drinking, as soon as I drink though I fight the need to consume by keeping my consumption moderated, instead of a bottle a night, I drink a bottle in 3-5 days But only if the bottle is opened.
A way I keep myself cold turkey is by keeping the ‘Cork’ as a barrier

Great, that may work for you- as you stated, everyone's recovery is different. but for a ton of people, weed and (especially) alcohol, can be an immediate trigger into relapse. This "California sober" (LOL) thing she's doing is absolutely playing with fire. Do not at all be surprised if she relapses. Coming from another heroin addict, I really hope the best for her, but she is literally playing with her life by doing this.
Yeah and that’s what works for you and that’s great. It didn’t work for me however or anybody else that I’ve known except a few people. Seriously though glad it works for you

As an idahoan who doesn't pay attention to celebrities, why the hell did she call us out? 😂
Because they always need someone to blame. It’s the way of HollyWEIRD

I’m sensing a narcissist in our presence.
“What a lot of people don’t know..” is the phrase that has been tossed throughout this whole journey.
She clearly doesn’t know or is willing to admit that all the toxic things that she has been doing IS and will ALWAYS be the source of why she is miserable. That’s why you need to work your ass of in trying to overcome these obstacles that life throws in your way in order to test you and show you that you’re more capable than you think you are.
She’s a typical narcissist Entertainer. Sobriety requires humility and Demi can’t spell it. “Treatment Team” Good Lord.

The difference between an eating disorder and a drug addiction is that you have to eat. You need food to survive so it actually makes sense to me that you would figure out a way to overcome eating disorder. Drugs are different you don't need them. That is something that once you start doing it is very hard to control
After an Narcotics Anonymous meeting, I said to the guy running it. I drink and smoke weed occasionally, Are there any type of meetings for people who drink or smoke weed, but don’t do heavy drugs. He said “ya, it’s called a fucking party, are you serious ?” I laughed so hard and yes it was a serious question.
Haha, I remember in highschool, a kid's Christian Mom called the police on him, who tore up his room, and tried to send him to rehad after finding a baggy of weed.
looool.... In all seriousness though, Alcohol is a INSANELY powerful drug. 50$ worth of booze can easily kill you (and put you in worse state then crack, opiates/opiods, etc) . The substance is prettty addictive. What makes things worse society really makes it so easy to drink long enough to become addicted (sports events,dancing, family events etc). I once was getting the shakes after december to january. i had so many family,bar,hockey,new years events and got wasted at every one . The physical withdrawl is one of the few that can truly kill you by itself. I had methadone doctors tell me serious alcohol withdrawl is more dangerous then opiate withdrawl. Normally it takes a co morbidity for morphine withdrawl to kill you. This isn't the case with alcohol.... To me its pretty crazy you buy such a insanely powerful stubstance but not another... Im for more liberty but for far more harsher drunk driving penalties. Like 10 years license revoke at least for driving SERIOUSLY drunk (not just 2 beers )
@@MichaelPhillips-jw4bj i hate how drinking is socially acceptable

Maybe Demi lovato should come to grips with the fact that maybe the Hollywood life is NOT for her. Some people can’t handle it. It’s nothing to be ashamed of. Sadly, the money and the lifestyle traps you in that world. You can’t stop.
Best comment!!!
It’s not just the lifestyle and money. Even if she would decide to become a nurse tomorrow and give all her saved money to people in need.
A person like her can never get back to normal life, she crossed a Line of fame that her anonymity is gone forever. She can’t just live in the suburbs like Jane Doe from Ohio can..
@@planetruther yes there’s no turning back once you hit that level of fame. I can only imagine having that kind of pressure on me 24/7. The body weight issues, paparazzi, crazy fans, expectations, not being able to be yourself and acting for the sake of your career. You literally sell your soul to be in that business. And yes it has its perks. More money than you can spend, adulation, popularity, attention. But it comes at a price. It seems like she’s not happy in that life at this point. But she’s at a level where you can’t just get out. She has a lifestyle that she can’t turn away from. Some people live the celebrity life easily. The pressure never gets to them and they make it look easy. Her not so much.
True
Gene Simmons from KISS has never needed drugs or alcohol in his life but he was probably a sex addict. He actually respected his mother and what she went through with the holocaust that he would never embarrass her by using drugs or alcohol.

I have a friend thats a former alcoholic, he lost his job, his family, his kids, everything. Went to rehab, come out, was good for a bit but was totally unhappy. He started drinking again, but before he got too addicted he started smoking weed. He doesn't drink any alcohol, he has a good job back, visition with his kids, and he smokes in the evenings and is in a good place and this has been going on for years.
TRUFAX
That’s awesome. Works for some people doesn’t for other. I have a buddy deep in alcoholism and I just don’t see how he’s going to get out of it:/ 29years young and his hands tremble when he’s not drinking
@@jdbsoccer100 he can do it but only if he wants to. No ones too far gone, but they have to want it - that’s the hard part. He’s so young! It wasn’t until I was 30 when I wanted to do/be better. I’ve been California sober for several years now and I believe weed has helped keep me sober. My emotions just go crazy sometimes and it’s uncontrollable... having a joint ready for me in the evening gives me something to look forward to when I’m struggling. And that truly makes all the difference.
Dunno how your making this claim that suddenly he will be cured because he smokes weed ,I smoked weed for years gave up because I had mental issues ,but I will tell you one god damn thing,there's no way in hell are your more productive than alcohol your worse your can't work you can't function and if you smoke weed full on like I used to it's smoke eat sleep smoke eat sleep ,how's this make anyone functual?
I can really relate to this and I even learned something about myself. I just want to give Demi a hug
i smoke everyday and its making me mentally ill , highly dont recommend
I'm 46, hit rock bottom a few years ago, got help, therapy, meds then finally I quit smoking weed. That was a huge step. Soon after quitting weed I got off the meds. A year off the meds and I've quit smoking nicotine. Now I'm working on drinking less. You either get mentally stronger, or you don't.
It's all on how you handle yourself. Some people make momey from those pruducts. Cannabis, alcohol, it should all be in moderation, idk why people suffer and use substances to cope. I used to, it was really bad. It didn't work, it was just like when I'd cut. It never works, just makes you think you've escaped. Makes you feel like you found a safe place within the pain, and that never works. It's like staying in an abusive relationship, just isn't healthy. Take care.
@@marcomelbourne I would, and I still use cannabis. Just not the same anymore, not as much.
It's all about progress, whether someone is choosing moderation or complete cessation, and whether or not that will be now or forever. People are affected differently on an emotional and chemical level and progress cannot be compared. People should always be encouraged to reflect on what they are doing and feel empowered to admit failure with condemnation. Giving support is the most critical aspect of rehabilitation and our society is so fucking awful at it.

How to heal from addiction and depression in LA: move.
“I’m working hard not to offend anyone” - GIRL! That’s the problem with PC/woke culture. You’re caring so much about everyone else and everything around you that you have no sense of yourself. You’re suppressing (and in some cases oppressing) yourself to the point of physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual illness.
Yep she blaming everything else for her problems instead of her self...
That's the truth

Weed is a drug,, tylenol is a drug,, being sober is a fight that you will fight for the rest of your life
I’m Canadian sober. Marijuana is legal across our entire country. Every province it’s legal. So I assume it’s similar to California sober. But because not all states in America is it legal so that makes sense to me! I use it for chronic pain and I micro dose edibles I buy at a local dispensary and it’s such a healing medicine! I gift from Mother Nature!
I'm canadian and I wish it really wasn't legal. I had no health issues before. Now I had to move appartments 3 times because my neighbours smoked weed and it made me sick. Not just a slight headache, I wouldn't be able to sleep, I'd cough my lungs out for hours, I'd have a terrible migraine, mood swings, hoarse throat... to name a few. And to make matters worse, I work from home. So I couldn't work anymore and the authorities can't be bothered because it's FUCKING LEGAL. So yeah, as much as the junkie kids enjoy their new drug, a lot of people suffer from THEIR choices and everyone would be better off without it.
@@camille8010 that hilarious. Unless there are nonstop smoking, then there’s no way to affect you that much, unless you have some sensitive lungs and health issues. So it sounds like a YOU problem. Seems pretty selfish to wish that other people should be penalized for using something natural like weed, just because you happen to have a sensitivity to it.
Not very Canadian sounding to me.
@@sheenaldeo It sure sounds like you know my health condition far better than my doctor. perhaps you should give him a call and explain your medical analysis ? I don't have any lungs issue or sensitivity. And yes, the secondhand smoke was almost always there. The reason is simple, the person smoked once a day, and the smell and vapes infused in the walls and pipes. It would slowly disperse throughout the day, constantly making me cough and more and more sick from the exposure. As for the "natural" origin of weed, water is natural , why don't you drown in it ? or, wait, even better, I'd like you to try the all-natural-cure Belladonna? I'm sure you'll appreciate it :D. You really shouldn't accuse me of being selfish when you're the ones IMPOSING your choices on others and ruining other people's lives. Secondhand smoke is a huge problem, and its all because of your selfishness. Half the population is affected negatively by smokers, and the other half is actively ruining themselves. If we remove weed and cigarettes, 100% of the population will be in better health. Who's been selfish? Imagine if I ate a whole lot of junk food, but you're the one getting fat. Wouldn't you be mad??

Demi- “I overdosed on crack and heroin had 3 strokes and a heart attack!”
Me- ....ok she needs a treatment team! 👀

Still really pathetic. A rich clown spending money on clownish behavior, and instead of cleaning herself up, she pays a team to hose her down, pathetic, no personality, this woman is more likeable on heroine.

She’s definitely the pretty girl that tells u she’s got issues but u ignore it and find out what she was talking about halfway thru the first date.
Kidding aside, when someone tells you who they are, you aught to believe them. At least I general, unless they have warped views of themselves to the negative eg annorexia, but you get what I mean.
bro are you talking about like.. 3 years in?
Ha. Been there, done that.
ahhaa
she is pretty? average at best
4:20 I really feel like she was bout to say “whatever I want them to”
“Out of the pool boys”😂😂
“I’m working so hard not to offend anyone.” - (Famous Name Here) How ridiculous a world we live in that people are being forced to live under a blanket of paranoia and oppression inflicted on them by a class of privileged loud mouthed Twitter hypocrites.
It’s so ridiculous.....no one seems to know WHY it ever happened to begin with....
Ya how did Rogan not jump on that one?
Fascist
Couldn't have said it better 👏🙌
Yes.
holy fuck that laugh is insane
Satan gets about half way out before her mouth closes again.
she's a witch
Gross
Feel like my soul left my body.
Makes sense for someone who has a big singing voice
When is this episode coming out?
I want to say thank you to both of you for speaking about this. I don't often watch or listen to your videos but when I do I feel like my husband is around and I'm waiting for his laugh or " yeah yeah exactly bro" and well my husband passed away December 13 2019 because if an overdose from fentanyl.
I love how celebrities will say it's no ones business but then releases a documentary about their addiction
I think it's bc there is a difference when you get the chance to tell your story as opposed to people telling stories about you.
I think it’s because then she can say it herself
but in interviews and things it can easily be taken out of context
People in general have a bad habit of putting their business on front street then getting mad when ppl give their opinion 😂
Big facts
“Its no ones business” means I cant talk about it because i havent found a way to sell the info yet
Joe ”not addicted to weed just smokes everyday” Rogan
@ghost robles If you compulsively consume a drug, it's addiction. I won't be taking any heroine, thanks.
@ghost robles I guess you can have an opinion on what addiction is, but scientifically speaking you’re wrong
Doesn't he do sober october? A month of no weed or alcohol.
Top comment honestly
@ghost robles That's physical addiction.
Watching this has given me a newfound respect for Demi Lavato. I wrongly assumed things about her based of the tidbits I would come across about her life. This is a person who after going through addiction and mental turmoil, decided to own her truth, as she said, and found a way to rise above it. Kudos to you @Demilavoto. Im not particularly fond of her genre of music but I'm definitely a fan of her as a person now that I've heard how she is overcoming her addictions that started as a preteen. I'm rooting for her and wish her all the best.
She seems happy and healthy. I’m glad she’s alive and safe
She is fake and likes the attention. She uses her addiction for money.
@@Angelaaa1015 No she doesn’t u don’t even know what ur talking about lmao
@@Angelaaa1015 you sound like someone who never went through nothing. People like you are the problem🙅🏾♀️
@@Angelaaa1015 Yep, it’s a grift. And a very lucrative one at that. She’s been using the same formula for years and her gullible fans still haven’t sussed it out.
The formula goes like this: get addicted, go into rehab, get “clean”, release an album of mediocre songs about how difficult it is being famous/addicted/overwieght/bullied by haters, do the talk show circuit to promote the album and tour, make a bunch of money, get addicted (again) and repeat as nece$$ary.

When someone says “my truth” rather than the truth U know there’s gonna be some tap dancing
Goggins would not approve...
Says the dude chugging alcohol in his photo.
It's just vernacular. When libs say that and they aren't being aggressive, it just means "my understanding is X"
We don't know very many things 100%. Not that there isn't a such thing as objectivity but when it comes to why people do things and how things affect other people, it's just educated guesswork and our ego plays a big role in our perspective.
@Benghali In Platforms And what is that result? Did you read what I wrote? They use it when they're talking about their perception of reality. Again, objectivity is definitely a real thing in certain contexts but in others it's not.
If you pick unnecessary fights you're going to end up strung out. Some things radlibs are doing are extremely problematic but the existence of the term "my truth" is not one of them.
@Benghali In Platforms No, actually.
Your issue is that you're lumping them all together. I'm right wing, but I'm not right wing in the way Ben Shapiro is, as an example.
There are marxists on the left. They are concerned with class, eg Ant*fa (not sure if that's a censored word).
There are cultural marxists, these are trans activists, third wave feminists, race essentialists. Power+privilege people, basically. The term "cultural marxist" is a lot more vague than "marxist." I've seen it used to describe a ton of groups on the left and right.
She falls more into that second category. In LA though, people like her are intensely nonconfrontational.
Listen to where she uses the term. She's saying "even when I say what I believe to be true, I have to be careful because I'm a celebrity and I only work if my reputation is intact."
I think like with Marxism you're conflating all uses of the term with the most aggressive use of the term. She's not attacking truth. She's saying she's sincere when she speaks. That's a good thing, I would think.
She's like Miley Cyrus without the cigarettes.
Don’t diss Miley like that boy
And she sounds like a girl lol
Fiks :)
I should probably know who she is I guess.
Except hotter... Trailer trash hotter
😆
Thank you for your humbleness and openess 💯
What's up comment section! I sure do miss you guys now days 😭 hope everyone is doing well
You think Rogan cringes when she says “own your truth?”
100 percent
Why? Just bc?
nope
would love to ... "R" is the 18th letter in the modern English alphabet ... "ape" is an animal that joe rogan likes "demi lovato" is in this video ... "in the mouth" is where I put food
She’s a clown
I’m a recovering opioid and cocaine addict. Tried abstinence. Never worked. I am Cali sober! I am in medical assistant school & got my cosmetology license. It’s not one’s business or place to tell anyone what they should do for their recovery.
// It’s not one’s business or place to tell anyone what they should do for their recovery.//
Bull-fucking-shit. Experts and professionals ought to.
Good job! ♥️ Stay strong
❤ proud of you
I read that as cosmology license and was so confused. Congrats though!!
But didn’t you have people that worked with you and guided you through recovery?
I hope she stays clean. I really like her. My younger sister is her biggest fan and Demi and I have a similar history with drugs (except i’m not famous). It’s really hard being an addict. I’ve been sober for 8 months and the world is just a freakin trigger for us. I admire everyone who can pull up a fight with their own demons. It’s not easy but is not impossible, i’m struggling but i’m staying sober day by day. It’s crazy how we change when we are sober and realize what the fuck was going on with us.. the judgement and pressure make everything more heavy but I’ve found a higher power that helps me with that. Good luck to everyone who are also in this battle and please stay sober!
I'm Appalachian sober. I only do pills when I can afford them.
“ I’m so fluid right now”.
Joe: we used to call it Bi.

I'm 5 years sober . Best thing in my life to move away from NYC and stop drinking. No other stuff for me 100% sober.
What are we? your sponsor? Go to a meeting and tell your story to other quitters.

You sound like you really need a drink.
Good job keep it up bro
You guys are something else 😂
I understand what she is saying and I’ve seen many people in Recovery who use something. For me, I will never trust my self to drink again. I hope the very best for her!
I don’t know you, but I wish you the best in your recovery 🥺 may you find the happiest version of yourself
I had a very similar experience with weed where I was feeling very anxious after a death in the family so I would smoke to take the edge off but as soon as I stopped the anxiety came back 10 fold, I thought I was just crazy lol
California sober = find another addiction that gets you high, but you won’t die . You still be addicted to something but it’s healthier than hard drugs
@@bigbrotheriswatching2680 Super edgy bro. You're the king. Each time you copy and paste this, an angel gets its wings..
Yeah except smoke damages mad organs and if u inhale shit for 10 years str8 it is gona cause damage
@@bigbrotheriswatching2680 Side splitting stuff my dude.
Imagine that...
You dont get physical addiction to weed like you do with heroin or crack. Its mental addiction that only effects weak minded people. Weed addiction is a choice dont misinform people.
Her vivitrol shot is to stop cravings for substances. I’m a fentanyl addict and I take vivitrol monthly, by shot, just like Demi. She can say it’s for bulimia or other things, but it’s for opiates. It stops cravings and prevents you from getting high by literally blocking your receptors from opiates attaching to them.
You still clean then?
How long?
What were you thinking when you decided to try fentanyl for the first time? Just trying to increase the high from heroin because it wasn't having the same affect as when you started?
Thanks in advance
@@stevereimer5514 I was sixteen when I first tried heroin. I progressed from painkillers I got from hand surgery, which was the first time I was exposed to opioids and for an extended period of time too. Knowing that feeling, I gave heroin a try. I wasn’t addicted to pain killers or anything, yet. Did heroin every now and then, but the truth is, fentanyl is cheaper and better than heroin. Heroin Addicts don’t want heroin anymore, hell some can’t even find it since fentanyl is way more prevalent. Most of the time if you do get heroin, it has fentanyl or might just be entirely fentanyl. Otherwise you get heroin in a rock or tar form. Which is way more expensive than the fentanyl we get at $5 a cap, which is .1 of a gram (1.0). I’m 20 now. I’ve had lots of relapses. It’s not easy getting clean.
I have like 120 yellow narcos I’m about to flush
@@jc6403 holy fuck
@Vracanje Vjecan don’t want to be clean? You’re fucking crazy man. I want to be sober. It’s the best thing in the world. Some people get it. Just think about sitting on a park bench, cool air. Taking a deep breathe, no worries, no thinking about how I have to get dope or money. It’s insane how I managed to keep getting dope and money to support the addiction, but I was always found a way. I’m stoned off weed right and and it’s late
Girl I am grateful that you shared your story. It seems tough to be in addiction and near death experience. I can’t imagine. Pray that things get better for you and you continue to do whatever you need to get better. Weed does have a lot of benefits as long as it is not done in excess, the right amount does have benefits. Also the different kinds, for different purposes is also something to look into. :)
That laugh even made my bowels move
