With her new single Skyscraper making its way into Billboard’s top 10, singer Demi Lovato has opened up about her struggles, admitting that she doesn’t consider herself fully healed.

Demi is currently in the album working on a new album after spending some time in a treatment facility for issues such as an eating disorder and cutting. The star revealed that the new album won’t be as emotionally heavy as Skyscraper. “The sound and feel of the album is going to be a lot lighter. With ‘Skyscraper,’ we wanted to come out of the gate with something very inspirational and something that represents the journey that I’ve been on. But the rest of the album is a lot lighter and more fun.” Demi says.

“It’s definitely a lot more mature than the other stuff that I’ve done. It’s not pop rock, it’s more R&B vocals and it really showcases my vocals, which I’m really proud of. There are some other songs that are as equally intense as ‘Skyscraper’ that I’m excited for people to hear, but for the most part it’s going to be a lot more fun.”

Does Demi’s issues come from being a child growing up in the spotlight? “No. My issues stem from other things that happened in my childhood. They are issues that every girl deals with, whether they’re in the spotlight or not. Cutting has become so common with so many girls and in almost every family people have tried it or experimented with it and there is addiction all over the place. It doesn’t necessarily come from being a quote unquote child star.”
