Demi Lovato Opens Up About Addiction Struggle in Groundbreaking Documentary

Demi Lovato is revealing for the first time doctors believed she only had 5-10 minutes to live when she overdosed … and it’s all part of one of the most anticipated documentaries of the year.

The singer says she suffered 3 strokes and a heart attack during the nearly fatal July 2018 incident. Demi opened up about it for her upcoming documentary … which also features friends and family describing her struggle to survive.

Aside from her OD … “Demi Lovato: Dancing with the Devil” highlights her rise to superstardom and her struggles with sobriety and mental health. A new trailer shows the film will also touch on her recent 2-month engagement to Max Ehrich.

As we reported … Demi was hospitalized for about 2 weeks following her overdose, but continued to recover for months until she made her comeback live performance at the Grammys in January 2020.

She performed the single, “Anyone” — which she wrote just 4 days before she OD’d — and later said it was pretty evident the lyrics were a cry for help.

However, as it’s suggested in the documentary, Demi was good at making everyone believe she was okay.
