Cara Delevingne is on the cover of Elle UK’s September issue, and the 30-year-old model opened up about everything from her career to anxiety and depression in an accompanying cover story. The Only Murders in the Building actress also touched on her nine months of sobriety.

“It hasn’t [been easy], but there have never been moments when I’m like, ‘This isn’t worth it,’” she told the publication. “It’s been worth every second. I just don’t know what it would take for me to give it up. I am stable. I’m calmer.”

Delevingne decided to get sober after photos of her in distress hit the internet last September. As for what she’s learned since then, she added: “... I’m resilient as hell. That anything is possible. I think I used to say that and not believe it. But now I really believe it.”

Delevingne’s fans have offered her nothing but support, which is evident in the comments section of Elle UK’s July 25 Instagram post promoting the article.

“I read this interview, just amazing. I am happy with your happiness ❤️,” one person wrote.

“You deserve all the love 💕💕,” someone else added.

“I’m really proud of her ❤️❤️,” another fan applauded.
