Since being released in January 2010, the multiplatinum singer has spoken candidly about her eating disorder, cutting and Bipolar II disorder. Lovato also asked her Twitter followers to "please say a prayer for all of those struggling with eating disorders, self harm, mood disorders, and substance abuse."
In November, the former Disney Channel star thanked her fans for their unwavering support while she was in treatment. "They have stuck by me through everything and love me just the way that I am," she wrote in her monthly Seventeen column. "That is a wonderful feeling to know that people accept the real you."
