    When it comes to the media, Demi Lovato is one actress that just can’t catch a break. The hit maker says that she wanted to quit sobriety after she was called “morbidly obese” following her 2018 overdose.

    Demi discussed her recovery and where her life is now in the YouTube documentary, ‘Dancing with the Devil.’ Here’ what she has to say.

    In her documentary, DemI opened up about how a comment from the press about her weight left her contemplating whether or not she wanted to continue her path towards sobriety.

    Demi opened up about her near-death experience and says that she had to “die in order to wake up” and now that she’s sober, she’s feeling “more joy” than she has ever did before.

    The singer also recalled in an interview with Paper Magazine how a critical comment about her weight following her stint in rehab that year left her questioning her life choices at the time.

    “I think it was right after I got out of rehab in 2018. I saw an article somewhere that said I was morbidly obese,” Lovato recalled to the outlet.

    “And that is the most triggering thing that you could possibly write about somebody with an eating disorder. That sucked, and I wanted to quit, I wanted to use, wanted to give up.”

    Demi said that she changed her mind when she realized the benefits of looking past all of the criticism in her life.

    “And then I just realized that if I don’t look at those things then they can’t affect me. So, I stopped looking and I just really try not to look at anything negative,” she said.

    “I think the positives outweigh the negatives,” she continued. “I think that if they didn’t, I wouldn’t be doing this.”
