Frequently Asked Questions
This calculator divides your total days sober by 7 for weeks, by an average of 30.44 for months, and by 365.25 for years, giving a full breakdown of your sobriety time in multiple useful units.
30.44 is the average number of days per month across a full year (365.25 ÷ 12), giving a more accurate conversion than assuming every month has exactly 30 or 31 days.
365.25 accounts for leap years, giving a more precise long-term average than the simpler 365-day figure, which matters more as the total day count grows larger.
