Demi: Hello, I'm Demi Lovato.
One of the most exciting things about becoming a young adult
is that you start to have a say in your life.
Where you live, where you work, what you do.
Unfortunately it's hard to feel in control when your life feels out of control.
That's what it felt for me when I was going through my dark period.
I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. I was hurting myself.
I was anorexic and bulimic, I wasn't doing well.
But it took my parents and my team to pull me aside to
talk to me about getting help.
What I experience may not be exactly what you experience
but for every young adult out there who feels scared or sad
or out of control, who feels like their mental health
diagnosis means that they're unworthy; I want to let you know that you are.
That your life has meaning, you can reach out to someone you trust and
be there for you.
I want you to know that you can overcome and get through anything.
I know where you've been and I know where you're going can be really magical.
