Carbon diffForHumans with months

I try to get the difference between 2 dates, between date now() and a given date in Laravel app with Carbon. I do the following in my blade

\Carbon\Carbon::parse(Auth::user()->properties->first()->von)->diffForHumans()

but this returns only the years, so taking the following example where given date is 1st September, 2011 I get as result 6 years ago The expected would be 6 years and 3 months. Is it possible the achive this with Carbon?

You can use diff() and it's properties:

$diff = auth()->user()->properties->first()->von->diff(now());

And then display it:

The difference is {{ $diff->y }} years and {{ $diff->m }} months

Alternatively, you could get a difference in months and use it:

$diffInMonths = auth()->user()->properties->first()->von->diffInMonths(now());
