Rob Lowe is marking over three decades of sobriety with a shirtless photo of himself in the ocean.
“33 years ago today I found recovery and a tribe that has sustained me on my incredible, grateful journey,” he captioned an Instagram selfie Wednesday. “My life is full of love, family, God, opportunity, friends, work, dogs and fun.”
The “9-1-1: Lone Star” actor concluded, “If you or someone you know is struggling with any form of addiction: hope and joy are waiting if you want it, and are willing to work for it!”
Lowe’s comments section was filled with sweet praises from several of his celebrity friends.

“[I] was attempting my first try at monogamy, which was not really in my nature at the time, and I wasn’t able to do it,” he told Haute Living LA in 2014. “It made me examine how I was living.”
Six years later, he credited Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler for playing a “big part” in helping him stay sober.
Last month, the actor gifted his youngest son, John, a five-year sobriety chip.Instagram/@roblowe
“I was probably sober two or three weeks, maybe, and I got a phone call from Steven Tyler, who I did not know,” Lowe said at an event at the time. “He called me and said, ‘I heard you’re in recovery and I just wanted to say, ‘Hey, you’re going to do great.’”
Now, Lowe, 59, is helping his son John continue to live a sober life. Last month, he gifted the 28-year-old his five-year sobriety chip live on TV.
“I love you. I’m proud of you,” Lowe said to his son.
Lowe and Berkoff tied the knot in 1991. Aside from John, the couple also share son Edward, 30.
