Lamb Of God guitarist Mark Morton has reflected on what it means to him to reach his sixth year of sobriety.The musician had previously been addicted to both alcohol and opiates and shared a message today on his social media reminding anyone struggling with addiction themselves that recovery is possible.“I woke up this morning with 6 years clean & sober.

This comes after decades of drinking nearly every day & with the final 10 years of that compounded by an aggressively progressive opiate addiction that almost killed me,” he wrote.“I’m writing this just in case someone out there who feels as hopeless, helpless & crippled by addiction as I once did might read it & start to believe that recovery IS possible.“You can get clean & live a life beyond anything you’ve ever dreamed of.
