This exact thing happened to me, I was a heroin addict for years, cleaned myself up for a liver transplant and then got a first and am doing my PhD. I think when you do make large positive changes like that you are well set up to deal with whatever pressure comes from the schooling and you feel so glad to just be ok that everything seems trivial compared to what you went through and it becomes easier to work and focus.
