“Well, I wouldn’t change my path because I don’t have any regrets,” Demi started. “The closest thing that I get to a regret is when I overdosed and I wish somebody had told me, one, that I was beautiful, because I didn’t believe it. And two, I wish that someone would’ve told me that if you just sit with the pain, it passes.”

“I have vision impairment and hearing impairment to this day,” Demi continued, adding that she doesn’t drive due to the impairments.

“It’s a daily constant reminder. Anytime I look at something — like, I have blind spots in my vision when I look at your face,” Demi explained. “And so it’s a constant reminder to stay on the right path, because I never want that to happen again.”

In another recent interview, Demi explained why she stopped using they/them pronouns after previously coming out as non-binary.
