She believes that since people constantly kept telling her how to behave and how to dress in the industry, it affected her, reports contactmusic.com.

The 21-year-old singer spent two weeks at Dawn at the Meadows treatment facility in Arizona in January.

“You all have pressure that you have to deal with every day – with school, with work, with friends, with parents, with family. They tell me what to wear, how to look, what I should say, how I should be.

“Until recently I had given into that pressure, I lost sight of who I was. I listened to opinions of people and I tried to change who I am because I thought others would accept me for it. And I realised I don’t know how to be anything but myself,” she said at a recent event.

    Demi Lovato has broken her silence about Selena Gomez, just days after news surfaced that the former Disney star had recently checked into rehab.

    “Selena is … I’ve known her for 14 years and we’ve been best friends,” Lovato told E! News. “That’s all of her business, and I just want to let her do her thing. And, yeah, she’s amazing. I love her.”

    She also spoke with “Extra” host Mario Lopez about how proud she is of Gomez, 21, saying, “Selena and I have such an amazing friendship … and I love her to death.”

    This week, it was revealed that Gomez spent two weeks in rehab last month at The Meadows facility in Arizona. Her rep said she voluntarily attended the program, but not for substance abuse. A source told Billboard “she was burnt out” due to a rigorous work schedule.

    When the news first broke, Lovato tweeted a message seemingly directed at her friend: Weakness is living in denial. Only the strongest people ask for help.
