"Though most of Demi Lovato&amp;apos;s friends have kept quiet since her rep announced the singer was seeking treatment for &amp;quot;emotional and physical issues&amp;quot; on Monday, actress Meaghan Martin says she feels inspired by her Camp Rock 2 costar&amp;apos;s decision to get help.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;I&amp;apos;m so proud of Demi. I know she is doing the right thing. I think it&amp;apos;s awesome that she did it despite the press she may get,&amp;quot; Martin, 18, told HollyScoop. &amp;quot;Just watching my friends go through stuff like that is in itself a lesson.&amp;quot;\r\nThough the nature of Lovato&amp;apos;s problems haven&amp;apos;t been officially disclosed, the 18-year-old Sonny With a Chance star has openly discussed being bullied as a kid.\r\n\r\n&amp;#xA0;\r\n&amp;quot;I know firsthand what it&amp;apos;s like to be called names and be affected by things. They would call me fat, they would call me promiscuous,&amp;quot; she revealed on America&amp;apos;s Next Top Model in September. &amp;quot;At the time when I was 12 years old, that was like the end of the world.&amp;quot;\r\nIn addition to being bullied, Reuters reports that Lovato has also &amp;quot;fought through eating disorders and has struggled with cutting.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nAdding to Lovato&amp;apos;s problems, sources tell UsMagazine.com that the Disney star was &amp;quot;forced into showbiz from a young age, and that puts tremendous pressure on someone.&amp;quot;\r\nBut now that Lovato is seeking professional help, Martin expects the singer to make a full recovery.\r\nSaid Martin: &amp;quot;She&amp;apos;s a good girl and she will find her way back.&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
