Demi Lovato told Glamour UK that she used to be very manipulative before going to treatment for her eating disorder. Here’s what Demi revealed about her former attitude:
I was a very manipulative person when it came to my eating disorder. You name it, I did it. I would lie about already eating. I would lie about having to go to the bathroom. I would go to any lengths to make sure I was sick. I began compulsive eating at the age of eight. Then, when I started being bullied at 12, I stopped eating. I went from overeating to undereating to throwing up. It never really went away. I’d try, but the impulses would come back. You feel like you’re on a downward spiral, but you have to fight through it. I had real difficulty with my body image. It was hard to look at myself in magazines. My friends would say, ‘Wow you look so gorgeous.’ Everyone else was looking at what they thought as a beautiful girl, but I just couldn’t see that when I looked at myself.
Aww, we’re glad Demi got the help she needed!
