"Demi Lovato left her tour early this weekend in order to seek medical treatment for emotional and physical issues she has dealt with for some time. Demi has decided to take personal responsibility for her actions and seek help. She is doing just that," her rep says.

Lovato, 18, was next scheduled to perform in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on Tuesday.

"Demi and her family ask that the media please respect their privacy during this difficult time," the rep adds. "She regrets not being able to finish her tour, but is looking forward to getting back to work in the near future."

    Some jerks can be cruel especially when they can comment on line anonymously. Heres hoping Demi gets better and can put this all behind her.

    I don't know who she is, but in my opinion that's a good thing(im old)...she's a not a monster and press seeker. I hope she gets well and gets all she wishes for, 1stly, peace of mind.

    In the other article she says she still feels bullied because she sometimes reads the comments people leave on articles. I hope she reads these because there is nothing negative at all. She is a beautiful, talented young lady who sets a wonderful example for younger girls. Bravo for her for getting help instead of turning to drugs like so many do eventually. Good luck to her!!

    My prayers are with her and her family. May she take all the time that she needs to work through this and heal.

    Better get help now that let the situation linger until it gets worse. What ever it really is I hope she gets better, slows down a little and returns to her tour. Best wishes.

    My daughters love Demi. I really respect her music and her style. We will be praying for her. God knows the plans He has for Demi-for a new future and hope.

    Poor thing, she's so young to be taking on so much. Hope she gets better soon!

    Very intelligent young woman. I do not know who she is but I hope everything works out for her and I am glad she didn't just keep going on a downward spiral.

    It's not Joe Jonas' fault as this was something she has dealt with through her teen years. Bravo to her for addressing them rather than turning a blind eye and putting on a happy face because that's what everyone wants. I hope she is doing better soon!

  • November 01, 2010 - 11:37pm Rose Ortega

    She is such a beautiful talented girl. My daughter is a big fan. Sometimes all that fame is just too much on these young stars. I wish her the best!

    awee. i hope she'll be fine..

    I support Demi for seeking medical intervention and for being brave to fight her "issues" are plaguing her currently. My 11-year-old son was diagnosed with an eating disorder about 3 weeks ago due to anxiety and depression brought on by bullying. Unfortunately, issues can strike at any age. I hope she gets better soon and I support her decision. She is a beautiful, talented girl. So many great things still to come for her.

  • November 01, 2010 - 10:39pm Sydnee Yates

    shes dealing with depression. i feel so bad for her. the constant bullying and everything. LOVE YOU DEMI!

    its all that #%#^$%#$ joe jonas's fault. hes probably cheating on her with like 23842034823 other girls. thats all a jonas brother is good for.

  • November 01, 2010 - 10:01pm Abigail Morris

    She is too young to be having issues. She should be enjoying life. I wish her the best and hope she seeks treatment for whatever demons she's dealing with. At least she's trying to nip it in the bud early -- whatever it may be.

  • November 01, 2010 - 9:59pm Cat Castellini

    I blame Joe Jonas.
