Demi Lovato discusses bipolar disorder

Demi Lovato has been speaking openly and honestly about the tough time she has been having over the past few months.

Now, the young singer and actress has revealed that she has bipolar disorder.

“I never found out until I went into treatment that I was bipolar,” she told People magazine.

“Looking back it makes sense. There were times when I was so manic, I was writing seven songs in one night and I’d be up until 5:30 in the morning.

“I feel like I am in control now where my whole life I wasn’t in control.

“What’s important for me now is to help others.”
