Lovato seemingly had a pleasant Monday evening partying in honor of a friend’s birthday, posting pictures on her private Instagram account that portray her having fun. Sadly, her overdose occurred the following day.

When paramedics arrived at Lovato’s home at Hollywood Hills, they used Narcan — a medication that reverses the effects of narcotics for use in an emergency — on the unconscious singer. Initial reports claiming the “Camp Rock” singer overdosed on heroin have since been disproven, and the drug was not discovered in her home.

Lovato has been open about her struggles, having sought treatment for it in 2011 but relapsing shortly after leaving the rehabilitation center, entering into a sober living home the following year. She was then sober for six years, sadly relapsing last June when she announced her new single, “Sober,” the lyrics of which deal with her confessing that she broke her sobriety. According to E! Online, she confirmed her relapse as a way for her fans to keep her from straying again from the right path.

Sadly, the pop star has been enduring a rough period again; a source close to People says, “Things have been a total mess for months. She and her team severed ties, and they played a large part in getting her sober years ago. She hasn’t been in a good place.”
