Demi Lovato

Sometimes you don't know who you can and cannot trust. I still learn that over and over again.

My stepdad provided me with an amazing childhood. I played outside like a normal kid, I rode my bike, I walked to school, but the happiest times were when I was acting.

I still had a normal childhood with my friends from school.

On TV, you have wardrobe fittings, you have four cameras on you at all times, and you're worried about your angles and your lighting and your shots.

Where I am today... I still have my ups and downs, but I take it one day at a time and I just hope that I can be the best that I can possibly be, not only for myself, but also young people that are out there today that need someone to look up to.

I try to keep it real. I don't have time to worry about what I'm projecting to the world. I'm just busy being myself.

Creativity is what helps me escape a lot of my inner demons.

Recovery is something that you have to work on every single day and it's something that it doesn't get a day off.
