Demi Lovato has recently admitted for the first time that her nearly fatal
overdose in July 2018 had her experiencing several complications while she was
hospitalised.
The singer, who opened up about the said incident in the
upcoming documentary, “Dancing with the Devil”, recently shared a trailer of the
said programme on Instagram, that featured several clips of the interview
including one where Lovato revealed, “I had three strokes, I had a heart
attack.”
In the same documentary, it was also revealed that the “Sonny with
a Chance” star experienced temporary blindness, and that she was told by the
doctors that she was less than ten minutes away from death.
Lovato posted
on Instagram, “I’ve been holding #DemiDWTD incredibly close to my heart, and now
it’s time to share an inside look. This is only a short preview of what is to
come.”

Prior to the release
of the documentary, Lovato has gone on several interviews where she shared her
experience struggling with alcohol and drug addiction, as well as her struggles
with mental health problems.
“For the past couple of years, I’ve heard a
lot of stories about my life and what people think has happened. I wanted to set
the record straight and reveal it all for my fans,” she said.
The former
Disney child star was found unconscious at her home in the Hollywood Hills in
July, 2018 after reportedly overdosing on opioids laced with fentanyl.
