That's when she went on to warn her fans not to follow in her lead. "Cutting yourself up isn't something I'd recommend," she said, "and Demerol isn't anything to play around with. That's how Michael Jackson died."

But still, Heidi managed to find the silver lining of the whole ordeal. "A lot of positive things came out of that. I had to look at myself in the mirror every day healing, and be like, 'What did I do to myself? How did I get here? What is going on?'" she said. "I basically had to hit that rock-bottom moment in my life, to realize what was important to me."
