The pop star promises her fans she'll tell her story -- when she's ready.
Demi Lovato says she's "grateful to be alive" following her drug overdose back in July.
In a series of tweets posted to her Twitter account Friday night, the "Confident" singer offered a health update for the first time since leaving rehab last month. She said she's sober, but also slammed the media for the multiple stories printed about her, claiming that most of them are "soooooo inaccurate."

"If I feel like the world needs to know something, I will tell them MYSELF," she continued. "Otherwise people stop writing about my recovery, because it's no one's business but mine. I am sober and grateful to be alive and taking care of ME."
Lovato, who was just recently nominated for a Grammy for her song with Christina Aguilera, expressed that she hopes to one day open up about what led to her overdose.
"Someday I'll tell the world what exactly happened, why it happened and what my life is like today," she tweeted. "But until I'm ready to share that with people please stop prying and making up shit that you know nothing about. I still need space and time to heal."

Any “source” out there that is willing to talk and sell stories to blogs and tabloids about my life isn't actually a part of my life because most of the shit I see is soooooo inaccurate. So newsflash: your “sources” are wrong.
@ddlovato
I would love to set the record straight on all the rumors out there but I literally don't owe anyone anything so I'm not going to. All my fans need to know is I'm working hard on myself, I'm happy and clean and I'm SO grateful for their support. 💕
@ddlovato
I'm so blessed I get to take this time to be with family, relax, work on my mind, body and soul and come back when I'm ready. I have my fans to thank for that. I'm so grateful, truly. I love you guys so fucking much 💗 thank you 🙏🏼
