July 10 (UPI) -- Tallulah Willis, the youngest daughter of Bruce Willis and Demi Moore, has celebrated becoming sober on Instagram alongside a throwback photo.

"3 years ago I was a malnourished string bean with aches that echoed throughout my soul," the 23-year-old wrote alongside an older photo of herself holding a can of beer with a cigarette in her mouth.

"However the internal cries to tend my most blistered and deep wounds repeatedly fell on deaf ears. I did not value myself, my life or my body and as such I was constantly punishing for not being enough. Self annihilation fueled with medicating left me a shell, and the world on mute," she continued.

"I was hoisted from my hole, (one so deep I was certain we were nearing the Earths magma core) on the backs of powerful human beings that I will forever be indebted too, and on that day my life was gifted back to me. I love the girl in this picture, I cry for her and I mourn her lost years. She is inside of me always and I must never let her slip too far. I don't push any agenda, I can only speak for my path and staying sober has been far and beyond the most important thing I've done in my wee 23 years," Willis concluded.

Sister Rumer congratulated Tallulah on Instagram a week after she celebrated being sober for six weeks writing, "3 years clean and sober is a massive achievement! The woman I have seen you become in the last 3 years has me in awe of you. You inspire me everyday."

Recently, middle sibling Scout also celebrated becoming sober on Instagram by sharing a song she wrote titled "Goodbye." "Last month on June 17 marked one year of being fully present with ma self, no filters, no chemical relaxation, no short cuts. I am meeting the best version of myself every day," she wrote.

The three Willis sisters recently made headlines for visiting Disneyland with their dad and step-siblings Mabel and Evelyn.
