Demi Lovato pledges to "Stay Strong" in her MTV documentary, the aptly titled Demi Lovato: Stay Strong," which will debut on Tuesday, March 6, at 10 p.m. ET/PT on MTV. When the trailer dropped last week, fans immediately began to watch it on repeat.

It lends insight and gives sneak peeks into what Lovatics will get to see and hear from the star when the full show airs next week. The deeply personal special follows the singer/actress as she struggles to confront her personal demons, while also focusing on her music career.

"I wanted to do this documentary because I told a lot of my story but no one has taken cameras inside of my life and gotten to see what it's like first-hand a day in the life of me," she told MTV News on Thursday (March 1). "I thought it would be a cool opportunity for my fans to see what it's like."

Before the show airs, MTV News is taking a look at several of the must-see moments from the trailer.

Her FansDemi opens up about the support she received from her fans during her personal struggles, noting that they helped her though her darkest days and still do. Her fans also talk about how appreciative they are of her openness and honesty. She even visits the Illinois treatment facility where she spent several months. She later says, "I'm not fixed; this is a daily battle. But I continue to work my butt off because now I want to be a legitimate role model."

Battling Her Eating DisordersThe singer/actress makes her way home for her first Thanksgiving since treatment. Having dealt with eating disorders, she goes to a family gathering for a holiday that's focused on eating. "I never thought that I'd be a role model," she says about her public image. "When I first started in the industry, everyone just kind of made me a role model, and I hated that. I had so many issues underneath that needed to be taken care of. ... It literally ended up driving me insane."

Getting Back to TouringShe cut her tour with the Jonas Brothers short in 2010 when she went into treatment, and in fall 2011 she embarked on her first tour since leaving treatment. About the trek, she notes, "This time on tour I feel like I am definitely not taking anything for granted."

The special is named after two tattoos on her wrists that read, "Stay Strong." The ink pays homage to her devoted fans, who stood by her side through her recent personal struggles through her return in 2011, when she released her album Unbroken.

"It's something that my fans were actually drawing on their wrists while I was still in treatment," she explained about the significance of her tattoos. "Some people even got tattoos of it, so I wanted to show you guys that I will never forget the support that you guys gave me."

Don't miss "Demi Lovato: Stay Strong," debuting Tuesday, March 6, at 10 p.m. ET/PT on MTV.
