Brooke Mueller is nearly nine months sober.

The actress, 47, spoke about her “hard” journey to getting clean on the “Hollywood Raw” podcast Wednesday.

Mueller, who was seeking treatment when her home was searched in connection to Matthew Perry’s ketamine death investigation, noted that “a lot of people with [her] level of addiction don’t make it.”

She clarified, “In fact, most people don’t. I worked really hard. It has not been easy. I am sober. I do work a program. I do believe in the 12 steps.”

After thanking her “fantastic sober community … in Malibu,” Calif., Mueller revealed the eye-popping price she has paid for rehab over the years.

“Do you want to know how much it cost me since my first rehab at 19 or 20, to my 30th rehab at 47?” she asked. “It’s in the millions.”

Insisting this was not an “exaggeration,” the real estate investor said, “Unfortunately, I thought you had to go to these rehabs that cost anywhere from $75K to $140K a month to get sober.

“This last time I went to an insurance-only place, and they did not cater to me. They did not enable me. They did not care who I could have been or anything like that,” she continued.

Mueler credited the “real and raw … experience” with waking her up.

She made headlines in December 2023 for seeking treatment, two months after Perry was found dead in his hot tub at age 54.

The “Friends” alum’s cause of death was revealed as “acute effects of ketamine,” in part.

Following a months-long investigation, five people were charged in connection to the actor’s death, including two doctors and his personal assistant.

While Mueller did not speak to Perry’s death on the podcast, the duo reportedly met decades ago and reconnected in rehab in recent years.

“On and off for years Matthew and Brooke had been trading information on doctors. And it was implied they were more liberal than others when it came to meds,” a source claimed to Us Weekly last month.

The insider clarified that the duo “didn’t go to dinner or hang out” but communicated over “random text[s] and FaceTime[s].”

The source claimed, “Matthew was a friend who would ask her for favors. And Matthew was relentless. That’s what an addict is.”

Mueller, notably, was never charged.

In addition to speaking about sobriety Wednesday, she also gushed over her “fantastic” co-parenting relationship with her ex-husband, Charlie Sheen — and said she gets along “very well” with his other ex-wife Denise Richards.
