Things are going badly for Demi Lovato: there are talks of an overdose

Singer Demi Lovato seems to be living the ultimate life on Instagram. Fame, money, beauty... But nothing could be further from the truth.

She has been struggling with voices in her head for years. Nasty voices that make her depressed. This went on for so long until it all went wrong. Demi was urgently admitted to the hospital yesterday, and doctors are talking about a drug overdose. Sources close to her do not want to say which drug it is exactly.

Demi has always had a hard time. She struggled with an addiction in the early years of her career to alcohol and also to drugs. She finds it difficult to cope with all the fame, with all her fans and the particularly rich life she leads. Her best friends have reported that she has been seeking out a lot of ‘bad people’ lately. Last month she released a new song titled ‘Sober’. She has been ‘clean’ for six years. Very impressive, but now it has all gone downhill again. In the song, she sings: ‘Dad, forgive me for dropping the drink on the floor.’

‘Demi has been fighting her demons for years. It went well for a long time, but somewhere along the way, she pushed away the people who truly care about her. It became an unhealthy situation, where some professional contacts also no longer wanted to work with her,’ said a friend of Demi. ‘She knew herself that she wasn't doing well, but blamed her work for it.’ What a sad story.

Such things make you realize that you can still maintain a facade to the outside world, but that it can be very sad behind the scenes. We hope she recovers soon and that Demi can find her way back. That she can be truly happy again. But it will be a long, long road ahead.
