Demi Lovato Opens Up About Child Stardom, Mental Health & Resilience | Teen Vogue

[@mariavwrld]

I liked that she thanked the interviewer for also sharing her vulnerability.

[@AkiJeanable]

I appreciate how this interview was conducted. The professionalism and the way each question was asked. So cool.

[@michete]

Agreed this interviewer did amazingly

[@itscatcheng]

Don’t think I’ve seen Demi this healthy, secure, and strong, and it’s so beautiful to see after all these years. And Versha led the interview with such respect and vulnerability. Amazing video 💗

[@milesdewar2413]

i know!! im so happy for her 😊 not everyone that struggles make it out of it, its so joyous when you get to see someone heal and become a better version of themselves!

[@tupacshakurvalencia9495]

You have to grow up mentally at one point of your life… if you don’t try maturing by 27/28 you’re gonna run into a lot of issues.

[@qu4kerider]

i could listen to Demi talk forever! such a kind and strong soul.

[@Jolawnyk]

I love the journalist speaking so openly about her mental health issues at the same time smiling, having her makeup hair perfectly done depression and she is worth to be taken seriously because sometimes people think depression is all black and No it can be vitalite by everyone

[@Jessie12N]

Exactly, you would never be able to tell that I struggle with depression unless I said it.

[@madame__bizarre]

I was Demi's biggest fan as a pre-teen/teen. Her talent is undeniable and she's always seemed genuine to me. She's been open about her mental health struggles when depression and other illnesses/disorders weren't talked about much and while she's had her ups and downs since, I never stopped admiring her for that. Glad to see her doing better now. I'll definitely watch her new documentary as the topic of child stars is so interesting to me.

[@santilith8]

She's one of the most genuine artists out there today! She's always so honest and transparent with everything. I love her so much

[@j0l1ed1v15]

If she has kids with her biological predispositions and her ideology I don’t think they’d be that stable. I hope she changes so she can be a mother who raises happy stable kids

[@Juicycroissanwich]

She invented the Disknees! They are iconic even today in Disney media. Its all over high school musical for example

[@irissouza3075]

I appreciate Demi so much. She is simply the greatest vocalist of our generation in my opinion. I really root for her happiness.

I agree. Our generation is born between 1990 and 2000 I guess. To me, Demi is the best vocalist too of her generation.

Yessss I say the same!!

you can tell this hair color is like a revamped version of her 2018 blonde hair before her OD, the fact that she can go back to it and now create new happy memories makes me so proud of her ❤

Blonde Demi scares me she was also blonde in 2010 and 2012 during unbroken era

[@drew5059]

Demi saved my life back in the day. I am a couple years younger than her so I looked up to her so much in her Disney days. I grew up with junkie parents, I was bullied and beaten daily at school, and I was very depressed and suicidal because of it. When Demi came out with her album Unbroken and talked about all these issues it made me feel heard and like I wasn’t alone. I got help and slowly began to heal because of her openness and honesty.

[@actgirl1234567]

❤

[@sydneyhare8831]

I am the same way! I'm 29, just a couple years younger than her, and she is the reason I am still here today. I watch her mom's tik tok lives often too, and I can see where Demi was raised to be such a kind and wonderful soul!

[@deboramariaga]

She is clearly on one of her best phases. I hope she stays like that (euthimic) for a long time.

[@rosielovato113]

How could people hate Demi? She’s so lovable ❤

[@imqsqs]

She was so kind and respectful to the interviewer, and I can really appreciate both of your bravery in sharing this. Mental health is so important yet so hush hush

I played a lot of Demi’s songs for my kids. Her voice is so strong and she looks amazing

[@plantcraftie4141]

It's nice the interviewer was so open too.

[@ffiontill5924]

I’m not crying I’m fine. It’s cool. I’m cool. But seriously, having other people talk about this stuff, suicidal ideation and what depression is truly like and feeling trapped in your own mind. I respect these women so so much. Thank you. You guys make me feel like there is hope that perhaps I might get through this too ❤

[@michellemazzyy]

Wow this is an amazing interview. Demi is so well spoken and it breaks my heart to hear her story.

Makes me so proud to see Demi like this and how far she has overcome. You can see the way she carries herself and her glow that she’s in a way better than she’s ever been.

[@sydneyjetter4493]

Demi’s honesty has made it feel like she’s there with me when I’m in my darkest moments. Her leadership has given me permission to forgive myself for my mistakes and given me so much hope. I can’t thank her enough for what a blessing her honest interviews have been in my life 😭

@@jillsarah7356 I think they mean because of how she has a glow to her. She looks physically and mentally healthy and I think they're just pointing that out because it wasn't that long ago when Demi was struggling.

[@oliviabright8720]

​@MilesTarrant-ev6ju but spiritually, how is she ... inner being ...is she healthy? :Out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks "Luke 6:45.

didn’t she say she had gotten misdiagnosed on her last documentary? I thought she wasn’t bipolar

yes, she said in her Dancing with the Devil documentary that she believed she was misdiagnosed however in 2023 she sang a very different tune explaining how relieved she felt to be diagnosed "bipolar", idk 2021 was a very wild year for her
