Ke$ha told TMZ, "I'm a crusader for being yourself and loving yourself, but I've found it hard to practice.  I'll be unavailable for the next 30 days, seeking treatment for my eating disorder... to learn to love myself again, exactly as I am."

Things were definitely looking up for Ke$ha in the days before her announcement.

She tweeted the next day, "Cheers to this year being the best year ever. 2014 [is going to] be the year of truth and freedom."

The singer also has the Dubai leg of her Warrior tour coming up in the next few weeks, and she's scheduled to perform shows in Indiana and Wisconsin in March and April. (Via Kemosabe Records / Ke$ha)
