Since going public about her addiction and mental health struggles, Demi Lovato has been clear that hers is a lifelong struggle. "There's no day off in recovery," the "I Love Me" singer said at an event for Be Vocal: Speak Up for Mental Health, reported on by Elle in 2015. She later told the site she takes her recovery "day by day, sometimes hour by hour."
In 2011, after being released from treatment for the first time, Lovato told Seventeen, "Yes, there have been times when I definitely have been tempted to get rid of my dinner. But I will deal with it for the rest of my life because it's a life-long disease. I don't think there's going to be a day when I don't think about food or my body, but I'm living with it, and I wish I could tell young girls to find their safe place and stay with it."
The "Warrior" singer had a similar message at the 2019 Teen Vogue Summit. "To be honest, I don't always feel positive about my body. Sometimes I do not like what I see," she said. "I don't sit there and dwell on it. I also don't lie to myself." Lovato's health is what's most important to her now, and she tries to be grateful for that on tough days.
