After being rushed to the hospital late last month, reportedly due to drug overdose, Demi Lovato has finally broken her silence, saying that she needs “time to heal and focus on my sobriety and road to recovery.”

“I have always been transparent about my journey with addiction. What I have learned is that this mental illness isn’t something that disappears and fades with time,” she wrote on Instagram. “It’s something I must continue to overcome and haven’t done yet.”
