Hi Meghan. Thank you for watching. People who struggle with addiction need so much compassion and understanding. It really bugs me when people are stuck in a old way of thinking, that addicts are just weak people that need self control. That’s so far from the truth. So many studies over the last 30 years prove that wrong. It’s way more complicated. I’m just blown away that she made it through all that. Shows her strength!

She recorded a song called "Anyone" 4 days before her overdose in 2018. After she recovered, she performed the song live at the Grammys, it was her return to the public stage. I think it'd be interesting to get your take on both versions.

I saw Demi in an interview and she spoke about how she reached out for help. She told her management that she was struggling and she was afraid that she might relapse, which you'd think would be the right thing to do. They basically told her to stop being so selfish and to pull up her socks. Hey, can't have your cash cow and the person paying your salary out of commission now can they. I hope they're happy with the results of their inaction and insensitivity.

Absolutely agree1 (appreciate all you've done & continue to... trying to help people; esp. when they feel like they have no one) As heavy, shocking & difficult as it is to even watch from a distance, cannot even fathom how she was able to even put herself back in the position to re-live & to create/film this video. I'd guess it prob took many, MANY takes, lots of stopping... & just a looooong time & lots of strength to get through. From the guy bringing her drugs late at night & them supposedly being laced w/ a bunch of Fentanyl.. As she was then O.D.'ing.. rather than help/do anything, he s/assaulted... the guy then left her for dead. (so traumatizing, yet shows just how addictive, a cycle of abuse, etc. that when she relapsed... he is who she called) ='( From her former assistant finding her... the heart attack, stroke(s).. even seeing the machine & tubes literally sewn into her neck.. that were literally trying to remove, FILTER out toxins & replace her own blood asap, as a means of saving her life.... phew!!! Give her SO much credit, idk many who would've been even willing to re-live, re-traumatize themselves. What an amazing song tho... the entire album, actually! "Anyone" is my absolute fav.. so personal, so relatable for different reasons... It's not just that emotional connection she & her lyrics always contains; her talent & vocal ability on top of, always shines beyond, on anything she does! Wishing her the best.. the strength, the love, the peace, the happiness... things we all need & deserve. ~ Stay safe & be well.

One part that never sits right with me is the fact that right as it was happening, it was being reported by so many media outlets. she can never get a moment to escape the reactions and thoughts of everyone in the world, and the fact that it was being reported so soon is horrifying.

Even with weed you need to be careful though because dealers can lace it with other things. Best to get your weed from a dispensary.

The outfit she was wearing in this video is the same outfit she had on when she overdosed and I admire how powerful that is

It's called a ventilator that you hear in the beginning btw, it was breathing for her when she was in her coma. I've followed her since camp rock years, I can't imagine going through these, I've experienced a tiny bit of it and it's extremely hard to push forward let alone something like this? She's amazing and I love her so much Btw she did have a relapse after she went through the coma and everything too. But so far she's staying strong and being california sober!

Demi just keeps getting better and better, idk how more people aren’t obsessed with her

Her performance is so raw and real. I applaud her for putting this out there. If it helps even one person it was so worth it. Best wishes to Demi, she is truly amazing. (I cried my eyes out when I saw the MV )

She released an acoustic video for it today. She was also sexually assaulted by her dealer that night. If you want the whole story her documentary is out. I had the same reaction as you. It is so raw and emotional. Glad I found your channel.

I saw this a couple years late, but you were right. Demi did end up relapsing AFTER this overdose. She said it was terrifying that she needed so much drugs to feel anything because of how much this OD messed her up.

If you haven’t already, Definitely check out her docu-series on her KZread. There’s 4 videos and she goes into detail about her OD. She has definitely come far since that day.

Demi has a live acoustic version of this song on her KZread! She also has a live version of her song anyone which is absolutely fantastic especially her Grammy performance of that song! You don’t have to react to it but i think you should 100% listen to it!

Yess!!

If you have been someone who has followed Demi for a long time and knowing what she’s been through makes that music video that much more powerful and heavy. And to clear any confusion, if there was any, she had battled with the addiction for awhile and on the night portrayed in the music video she OD on things laced with Fentanyl. The doctors told her had her personal assistant waited not even two more minutes (time could be different) she would have been completely dead. The newscast you hear in the video were real ones from when this news got leaked. She mentioned in her documentary series that she wrote this song a few days before her accidental overdose which makes it that much more chilling. But thank you so much for the respect and grace you showed during this reaction, often people get too judgmental and forget she’s a human fighting a battle. And I hope your loved ones who also fight a battle never have to hit this point in their life or worse. Much love to you and yours and your channel. 🖤🖤

I love her and her songs always so heartbreaking. You said you don't know if you reacted enough - your eyes was teary and you were shoked. This is how you should react. Loved your real reaction.

it just so emotional and the thought of someone walking in then leaving without calling 911 then someone later coming in then calling it really is a miracle

I watched the music video AFTER her docuseries, and I'm amazed how well it showed that night..

Overdosed on pills at age 16 ,got my stomach pumped ,did it again and got sent into a rehab facility for a few months , it took me 2 more years to finally stop my pill addiction , I was so hooked and numb and wanted to feel something but couldn't and that same feeling is coming back and wanting to go back to pills is so hard ,addiction sucks way to much and it makes u feel for that moment but this addiction can and will kill u if you let it

This video hit hard for me as well. My cousin passed on February 9th 2021 of a heroin overdose. And it's the hardest thing to get thru. Boston has on of the highest addicted homeless. And we go in every sunday and feed them and provide clothes and care packages. This week we are doing a full Easter meal. And it's in memory of my cousin. Its heart breaking.

I just caught the full documentary yesterday; you are correct. I was surprised to learn that. I know for many people that would be dangerous territory, but if Demi can manage it, then so be it. Recovery is not a one size fits all situation. Only time will tell if it works for her. She seems very honest, with herself and her team now, so I think she would tell them if it was becoming a problem again.

I work as a respiratory therapist and the machine you are hearing is a ventilator… the machine we put people on when we put a breathing tube in and they cannot breathe for themselves anymore. I have worked in emergency departments and seen people come in post-OD and I’ve been on the team saving their lives. It’s terrifying to see and she is just so real with her experience on this.

If you haven’t checked out her Tiny Desk concert, definitely check it out. All of the songs are stripped down with just her and a piano. It’s beautiful.

She was sober for six years before relapsing and overdosing two years ago. This is a reenactment of the night she overdosed, including he outfit and hair. She has three out of four parts of her documentary called Dancing with the Devil, the fourth coming this Tuesday. I recommend watching it if you can handle it. It tells about her overdose and what led up to it. She relapsed starting with alcohol and a month later, was dependent on crack and heroine which she overdosed on. Her dealer also took advantage of her while she was under the influence. Her previous management controlled her life, especially her eating disorder so that she was miserable (she wasn't allowed cake on her birthday, only watermelon and whipped cream, for example--she has a new song about this--and someone was fired for having chocolate nearby). Her new album is totally different from her previous and I don't usually like the style but I'm enjoying the album. I still miss her pop rock genre from her first two albums but I've managed to enjoy her other albums as well. There is a live for the song! On her channel. Unfortunately she has decided to be what she calls "California sober." She's not abstaining completely. It seems risky but 🤷🏻‍♀️

This song really hits home for me :-\ i'm helping my partner through similar issues and it has been a struggle! I lost a lot of family and friends along the way who didn't understand why I stayed with him but love is unconditional and I would do it all again to get him to where he is now which is so much better than a few years ago!!!

I've lost count how many times I've watched/listened to this, full bodied chills every time.

She did relapse when she signed with her new management in 2019 and she thought that because she overdosed in 2018 and relapsed a year later that they would’ve left her but that’s what really made them stay with her cuz they were gonna let her go to another team cuz their plates were full but because of this, they realized that they had to stay and help her.

I really appreciate the empathy and respect you approached this reaction with 💜

Brilliantly done, so proud of her, so strong, Praying shes staying well...such an Amazing and Powerful song, Thank you, Peace

Thanks for this reaction! So honest and insightful🙏🏻💗 You should react to her docuserie named after this song, where she comes clean about what happened in her overdose and after that. And speaking of the docuserie, in the premiere she performed this song, Anyone, and ICU; a song for her little sister. Highly recommend to react to them too, or even better the whole album cuz is a masterpiece full of growth, truth, love and hope, very insightful and cathartic.

The video tells everything that happened the night she O.D. She went party, drank, had lines (she "shows" it in the video, when she rise from...) Then she went home and called her dealer. She told everything and much more in her autobiographical docu series "Dancing with the Devil", is on KZread

One of the roughest songs out there cause there is a lot of people who deal with addiction I personally have and to see her come out with this song to show what she went threw is very powerful and I have to say she is amazing and its a blessing she's alive watch the documentary she put out this song hits 100 times harder.

Thank you so much for this reaction! I’m so happy when people spread this video and therefore this issue. First I have to say I am so humbled by Demi with her absolute bravery and courage to put herself fully in this position again and practically relive it. That takes something inside someone that is so special and takes a lot of integrity. Where she was hooked up in the neck they were constantly feeding her new blood and ended up having a full blood replacement. Hence the survivor tattoo in that exact place has so much meaning. She was on a ventilator but also her heart was hooked up to her pumping machine. She was blind when she woke up and didn’t recognize her sister and her mother. The man who kept rolling her over was her supplier who kind of set her up like she was sleeping and left her for dead. So tragic. When you’re in that space you think you can trust certain people, but with drugs it always includes a complete selfishness we’re people will try to save them selves first. She was also sexually assaulted back in her Disney days by a costar and it was then swept under the rug and she had to continue working with him through many more seasons of the show! Sidenote, a man I dated many years ago while living in NYC had been a Heroin addict who have been clean for about seven years, but stayed in the rehab scene and became a counselor and saved many peoples lives. One day, a day after I spent the day with him, He overdosed on heroin and died. It never seems to end. God bless everyone who is struggling with this. You’re right they are always a “Covering drug addict” or a “recovering alcoholic”. ❤️😢✌️.

From where she started, the lies, the hospital she was in everything. She did suffer strokes and a heart attack as well as massive brain damage and she was legally blind for a while.

you have to see her docu series!!!

@2:55, it's the ventilator, it's what breaths for people when they're under....

Watch her live performance of this on the NPR tiny desk concert that one is amazing

You have to watch this live! Live on tiktok. It's amazing vocals

@MetalGuy, I sadly can completely understand what you were speaking about having ppl that are close to you that have addictions and how hard it is to hear/see this type of thing... There's quite a few addicts to different things in my family as well and it is extremely hard!! I've literally had to help raise one of their children because they were not safe in any possible way with her, and when the father got full custody and he'd gotten divorced fr someone else, I HAD TO step in again and help him with raising them.... I've been shocked for many years that her n a few others in our family haven't died from it yet! But don't get me wrong because most of the family I never got to know as I was growing up is because they did pass away from it... and sadly, I don't think a couple of them have very much time left🙏😢

Live version is on her KZread page! It was great!

Dunno if anyone has seen it but there is a tiny desk live performance of this song that needs watching

There's a live version! On jimmy fallon Very very powerful performance, if you watched the document her parents talk about how powerful her voice is after having some time off. 😍 Proud of you Demi!

for a live version, she just performed this on the tonight show on jimmy fallon!

If I recall correctly, Sober was a song she did in 2018. I believe it may have something to do with the incident at that time, or leading up to it. It is also quiet the song. I also very much like her song Sorry just as a pump-me-up song. Lastly, she has a song called Love Me that really hit me; it gives voice to a lot of my own feelings. Other suggestions: Anything that is NF, he's a star. I know you've done a number of his tracks, but they all deserve to be given a listen to in my opinion. =3

Youre reaction is so respectful! Please react to more Demi please please

She actually just released a Tiny Desk live version of this song and a couple others from the new album. I highly recommend you give it a listen! Also her docu-series on KZread is very insightful. She shares so much of her story

Loved this 🙌 Please react to Skyscraper or live of this song or Her new album 😌🙌

Demi is so strong 🥺❤️

Yes she just sang it live recently for tiny desk concert!!!! Please react!!!!

you should watch her documentary. It was really very close for her. If her assistant found her 10 Minutes later she wouldn't be here today.

Do you mean relapse or overdose? Because as far as I know you can't die 8 times. No hate, just asking.

@@jk4271 If you code, you have no respiration and/or no pulse, and you will not live if emergency medical attention isn't given. But, if you receive resuscitative help in time, you can be revived and live (record length is revived after eight minutes of CPR and she was clinically dead for 17 hours with no brain activity and taken off life support, she revived ten minutes later, survived and recovered). I've lived after a couple respiratory arrests, one of which also caused my heart to stop.

It’s called the plasmapheresis machine it’s take blood out take plasma either cleans or puts new in straight thru the neck I had to get it and chemo

she just did a live performance on the tonight show with jimmy fallon!

(Blood transfuser.) Loved your reaction to this.

Great, compassionate reaction. If you're looking for another book about drug addiction, Chasing the Scream is amazing.

Loved all your reactions to Demi. You should check more!

yes there's a live for this on her channel just check it

@6:43, HOLY COW THAT LAST PART GAVE ME THE CHILLS EVERYWHERE AND I TEARED UP AT THE SAME TIME!! "When she begs God to forgive her for dancing with the devil"...I just TRULY FELT THAT TO MY SOUL!!!🙏😢😱👿💔 Ps, I saw that your eyes welled up at the same time too!! IF ANYONE N EVERYONE THAT HEARS THIS AND/OR WATCHES IT DON'T FEEL THAT GO THROUGH THEM, THEY HAVE TO BE DEAD INSIDE!!!💯

You should totally watch her most recent documentary on KZread! It explains her whole journey with interviews from people who were by her side the whole time.

She did a live performance of it kn tiktok, it's now on youtube !

Another interesting detail is the end of the video - she is seen leaving her hospital bed with the "survivor" tattoo, but once again wearing that same green jacket, which I think I read somewhere was supposed to show that even once she survived the OD she ended up going back to substance abuse and her abuser. Very heavy song and video, takes guts to come out with something like that. I really hope she wins that battle.

This song just guts me. My mom and dad struggled with addiction and my mom was very much like this song and demi she'd had a long point of sobriety and started as she called it casually drinking that eventually moved from drinking to opiates and her her passing away due to an overdose.

That's so scary and tragic, I'm sorry for your loss. That's why I'm kinda on the fence regarding Demi's choice to drink in moderation now. I really hope that she'll be able to pull it off in the end, but that sure is a slippery slope for someone dealing with addiction.

The tonight show with Jimmy falon has a live showing of this song

Really appreciate the way that you truly felt this. This is how a reaction video should be. Good stuff 👌🏻

Thank you. This is such an intense song. I think the only other video I’ve done that hit me this hard was NF Mansion. I have seen addiction first hand and how it pulls people under. kzread.info/dash/bejne/mWSXrZVulZDUh9o.html
