Demi Lovato recently revealed that she believes in God and the fact that everything happens for a reason. She also spoke about her own upbringing and struggle with depression.
“I’m not super religious, but I grew up Christian and I believe in God,” Lovato told Cosmopolitan magazine. “When I’m in L.A., I don’t talk about it that much because people are very judgmental, but I just feel like God gave me a voice, not just to sing with. He put me through those things, which seemed horrible at the time, but they were so worth it. With the obstacles I’ve overcome, I can help people.”
Lovato admitted that she was suicidal as a child and often relied upon the show “Barney & Friends” to help ease her depression and struggling.
At the time, I was just so grateful to be on TV, but I was also really struggling. With Barney, I guess subliminally, I did have a relationship with this figure that was saving my life in a way,” Lovato said.
The young actress has revealed her battle with bulimia and self-harm, even seeking professional treatment for cutting herself. However, there are still some secrets that Lovato won’t speak about, no matter what.
