Demi Lovato's depression triggers trip to rehab...
Demi Lovato relised it was time to get help for her ongoing depression and eating disorder while recording new single Skyscraper. The lyrics detailed her personal problems.
The singer/actress insists only her closest friends and family knew of her struggles and felt she was even convincing them well, until she hit the studio to record her comeback single.
In an open radio interview with Ryan Seacrest Lovato said: " heard the song before anything had happened and I was just gravitated towards it. I was like, 'I have to record this... I'm obsessed with it.'
"I went into the studio to record it... and I sat there... and I just cried my eyes out. I was, like, doubled over with emotion. It was crazy... and we finished the song and I went through everything and I tried to re-record it but it didn't have the same emotion."
Lovato checked into rehab at the end of last year and spent three months tackling her issus and now the song, about conquering your despair has a whole new meaning for her.
She added: "Hopefully, what this song does for my fans... it tells them it's gonna be OK."
She assured them her rehab stint has done her the world of good and she has no plans to return to the darkest part of her life: "Now I have a clearer view, a better perspective."
