Demi Lovato Thanks Friends For Supporting Her Through Her 'Darkest Moments'

Billboard Music Awards - Season 2018

Demi Lovato wants her friends to know how much she appreciates their love and support.

The "Sorry Not Sorry" singer, as you know, suffered a near-fatal overdose last July. The result of the scary episode caused the star to enter rehab months later and — after completing 90 days of treatment — inspired the songstress to reroute the trajectory of her life.

This meant cutting out the toxic influences within her inner circle in lieu of friends who have her best interest at heart — those like pals Sara Elizabeth Mitchell and Matthew Scott Montgomery, to whom the artist especially expressed her gratitude for seeing her through worst moments in a thoughtful Instagram post on Tuesday (May 14).

"Just me and my best friends living our best lives," the pop star starts her message. "Thank you for never leaving me in my darkest moments, for always drying my tears.. even when they’re from watching Moana."

"Thank you for being loyal, honest and so grateful for every little thing.. like crying because we swam with fish/sharks/stingray and coral reef," she continued. "I’m so lucky to be best friends with two incredible souls who are so talented and creative because it inspires me daily. And you’re so supportive of me and every little thing I do.."

Lovato went on to thank her friends for even going the extra distance to travel abroad "when I'm struggling to make sure I’m okay" and for lending an objective ear to listen "when I was going through s**t."

"You’re the greatest friends I’ve EVER had and our future together is so bright," she wrote in closing, "I love you both more than you can imagine!!"

#ThreeCourseMeal... just me and my best friends living our best lives.. Thank you for never leaving me in my darkest moments, for always drying my tears.. even when they’re from watching Moana.. thank you for being loyal, honest and so grateful for every little thing.. like crying because we swam with fish/sharks/stingray and coral reef. I’m so lucky to be best friends with two incredible souls who are so talented and creative because it inspires me daily. And you’re so supportive of me and every little thing I do.. You’ve traveled across the country to visit me and stayed with me at my house for days on end when I’m struggling to make sure I’m okay but most importantly you never abandoned me like others did when I was going through shit.. you were there to listen, without judgement and only love and I can never fully express what that means to me. You’re the greatest friends I’ve EVER had and our future together is so bright. I love you both more than you can imagine!! Thank you for this past week 💗 @sirahsays @matthew_scott_montgomery ps.
