In July, news broke that Demi Lovato had been hospitalized for an apparent overdose. Although representatives for the singer refuted some of the claims, saying that "some of the information being reported is incorrect and they respectfully ask for privacy," in her first personal statement since the incident, Demi seems to confirm that she did indeed relapse.
She thanked fans for their support and promised to "keep fighting" and "focus on my sobriety and road to recovery."
I want to thank God for keeping me alive and well. To my fans, I am forever grateful for all of your love and support throughout this past week and beyond. Your positive thoughts and prayers have helped me navigate through this difficult time.
I want to thank my family, my team, and the staff at Cedars-Sinai who have been by my side this entire time. Without them, I wouldn't be here writing this letter to all of you.
According to People, sources close to Lovato say she plans to enter a treatment center when she leaves the hospital.
