The ‘Cool for the Summer’ hitmaker is thrilled to be reaching such a milestone in her recovery but admits there have been ups and downs and times when she “wanted to relapse”.
Celebrating the five years with a post on Instagram, she wrote: “So grateful. It’s been quite the journey. So many ups and downs.
So many times I wanted to relapse but sat on my hands and begged God to relieve the obsession.
“I’m so proud of myself but I couldn’t have done it without my higher power (God), my family, friends, and everyone else who supported me. Feeling humbled and joyful today. Thank you guys for sticking by my side and believing in me (sic)”
Meanwhile, Demi previously admitted it “feels amazing” to be celebrating five years sobriety.
She said: “It feels amazing. All I’ve been doing is focusing on bettering myself. It’s been quite the journey, but it’s well worth it. Surrendering is the most important thing whenever you’re trying to battle your demons. You have to admit that you have a problem first, and then you can overcome them.
