In her September interview with Howard Stern for The Howard Stern Show on Sirius XM Radio, she opened up about her struggle with narcotics and overdose.

Demi Lovato opens up about her overdose struggle
In a recent interview with Howard Stern, Lovato admitted to smoking pot and drinking in moderation throughout her recuperation, but she now admits it wasn’t the smartest strategy. She said on The Howard Stern Show, “I had to learn it on my own,” adding that she was smoking so much pot and eating edibles, sometimes 300mg at a time.
She went on and said, “All I did was replace my addiction with something I thought was safer.” The Heart Attack singer was also dealing with weight gain, and she also experienced profound sadness as well as deep depression. She said, “I was hiding in my room, not wanting to go outside because I didn’t want anyone to see me. I wasn’t living my life. I eventually ended up in a walking coma, where I didn’t feel any pain but also didn’t feel any joy.”
However, Lovato removed all narcotics from her life and entered rehab in late 2021, assuring her Instagram followers that sobriety is the only way. She also reminisced on how she is ‘still’ battling symptoms of her overdose, including vision problems that mean she doesn’t drive anymore owing to blind spots in her vision.
On the other hand, the singer attempts to stay in the moment rather than blaming herself for previous mistakes. She said, “A lot of times I start to answer like, Yeah, I wish I didn’t overdose because I have hearing impairment and vision impairment, and that was just an awful thing to put my family and friends through. However, I must remember the value of not dwelling on the past and not harboring regrets.”
