However, Demi suggested she wasn’t always surrounded by a good support system, sharing that “a person who came into the picture” assumed control of her life—from her business decisions to what food she could eat.
“For someone in recovery from an eating disorder, that’s so dangerous,” she said. “It actually exasperated my eating disorder to the point where I became bulimic again. From 2016 to 2018, I was dealing with that.”
Demi further recalled a 2017 incident when she was throwing up blood and said she needed to seek treatment. However, she said the person, who she did not name, told her “‘You’re not sick enough.'” So, she didn’t go.
“Less than a year later I ended up overdosing,” Demi continued, looking back at her near-fatal overdose in 2018. “I felt trapped. I felt like I couldn’t get out of this situation. And my way of blowing everything up was relapsing on drugs and alcohol. ‘Cause they always said, ‘If you use, we’re out.’ And I was like, ‘All right, time to get out. Bye.'”
