AceShowbiz - Demi Lovato is celebrating five-year anniversary of her sobriety today. The "Cool for the Summer" hitmaker took to Instagram to share an emotional post as a reflection of the journey she's been through in order to be free from her addictions.
"So grateful," the "Confident" songstress began saying in her post. "It's been quite the journey. So many ups and downs," said the "Camp Rock" star. "So many times I wanted to relapse but sat on my hands and begged God to relieve the obsession."
The 24-year-old singer went on explaining, "I'm so proud of myself but I couldn't have done it without my higher power (God), my family, friends and everyone else who supported me." She added, "Feeling humbled and joyful today. Thank you guys for sticking by my side and believing in me."
Earlier this week, the "Really Don't Care" singer also talked about her major milestone of being sober. "It feels amazing," Demi told Entertainment Tonight during the Kids' Choice Awards. "All I've been doing is focusing on bettering myself. It's been quite the journey, but it's well worth it."
The "Let It Go" hitmaker revealed that the main key to overcome her problem was learning how to surrender. "Surrendering is the most important thing whenever you're trying to battle your demons," said Demi. "You have to admit that you have a problem first, and then you can overcome them."
Demi also said that she would always be there for people who needed an advice related to her mental health journey. "People have reached out and I've been able to help," the "Stone Cold" hitmaker shared. "Some people it helps, some people that's their own journey. But if anyone ever needs anything, I'm always around."
