Demi Lovato: Rehab Was the 'Darkest Time in My Life'

By PopEater Staff Posted Mar 7th 2011 04:30PM

Demi Lovato is back! After leaving a treatment facility in January, Lovato reached out to fans to talk about the "darkest time" of her life in a new online video.

The singer checked into rehab in November to receive treatment for "emotional and physical issues," after being accused of assault by backup dancer Alex Welch, while on the Jonas Brothers World Tour.

"Your support is what got me through this," the Disney star said (via Cambio). "The journey has been very, very difficult the past few months. I was dealing with issues that I know not only girls just my age but of all ages are dealing with."

She continued: "I can't tell you how much light you guys brought into my life at probably the darkest time of my life. Without you guys, I wouldn't be here today ... I couldn't have done this without you."

I am so happy that she has learned to cope with her problems. Even after (self-)treatment, she is still the same down-to-earth, caring, multi-talented, beautiful girl that she was before.

LOVE YA DEMI!

And she is just as GORGEOUS as she was before treatment, maybe even more. :-)

So haters, don't bother saying otherwise. She knows the truth.

Well that's not true Pugz. She has the talent to get you talking about her and giving more attention to her. Not to mention you are pretty much giving her her mainstream career. You gotta give her that. She knows how to work with idiots like you ;-)

Just another rehab "star". Not much else to say about her.

By James

Obviously she was important enough for you to talk about her. Do you ever get tired of giving these "rehab stars" their careers and paychecks? Good job idiot. YOu became an unintentional supporter ;-)

James your such a lemming, hypocrite, and an idiot.

Mary Lou Retton is still the perfect role model in the solar system!

She went to rehab for eating disorder, not for drugs and alcohol.
I saw her in concert and she is VERY talented, as well as a very genuine, poised young woman!!

As some know...whatever self-destructive behavior that got you into rehab is merely a symptom of being an addict, she's has an addict's mind whether it be for eating, drugs, anything!

She is so dumb, do you really believe that? She is lying through her teeth, she repeated the same thing over and over and over again! If you don't believe me...keep watching this video till you see how obvious she is when she lies

Everyone has problems. Cry me a river, build a bridge, and get over it.
