The Heart Attack singer has always been open about her struggles with her eating disorder and how the pressure of the industry affected her. However, in an appearance on the Podcrushed podcast with Penn Badgley, released on October 3, 2024, Demi Lovato said that she is doing better.

The singer spoke about her treatment and said (via Billboard):

“I have a treatment team that I work with that helps me stay in recovery, and I’ve been in recovery from bulimia for five, going on six, years now. I’m trying to learn body acceptance rather than body positivity, because body positivity feels like, ‘I can’t even reach that yet.’ I have a nutritionist and a therapist that specializes in eating disorders.”

Lovato also added that making meals at home has helped her a lot and expressed gratitude towards her body for saving her during an overdose.
