Demi Lovato continues to be an open book when it comes to discussing her struggles with sobriety. Following the SXSW premiere of her Dancing With the Devil YouTube docuseries, the 28-year-old singer got incredibly candid while discussing her 2018 near-fatal drug overdose with CBS Sunday Morning. "The doctors told me that I had five to 10 minutes. If no one had found me, then I wouldn't be here," Demi said in the interview released on March 21. "I'm grateful that I'm sitting here today . . . For the first time in my life, I had to essentially die to wake up."
In her Dancing With the Devil documentary, Demi revealed that she's been exploring moderation over sobriety, using marijuana and alcohol in supervised moderation in hopes of finding a balance with her addiction, and in the CBS interview, she described it as being "California sober." "The complete abstinent method isn't like a one-size-fits-all solution for everybody," Demi explained. "I don't think that this journey of moderation is a one-size-fits-all solution for everybody, too."
Now, Demi says she's feeling "so good." "I feel more joy in my life than I've ever felt, because I'm not quieting or diminishing any part of myself," she said. "I think that my whole life, I was the horse that everyone was leading to the well, and they couldn't make me drink the water from the well. It wasn't until this past year that I was able to taste the freedom of the water in the well, because I finally was ready to drink it."
Demi's Dancing With the Devil docuseries premieres on YouTube on March 23.
