90 days and anxiety

How do you make it past 90 days? I’m filled with so much anxiety. Today I'm at 79 days. This is the 3rd time this year I've made it right around the 90 day mark. I don't understand why I keep relapsing around this phase of sobriety. For some reason I don’t know how to enter this stage. I've learned as many tools as I can, but I just can't seem to fly on my own. I suppose maintaining seems like such an overwhelming concept and it’s the first time I'm allowing myself to have the conversation about “forever.” I know I’m not supposed to think that way, one day at a time and all. However, isn't "forever" really what maintaining is about. :/ Lately, I’ve been avoiding recovery bc I’m not sure what to do now. I’m about to sabotage it all once again. Why can’t I seem to transition into this stage?
Did anyone else have anxiety when they reached the 90day mark and if so how did you manage? Welcoming any tips and advice, please
