Recovery Anniversary Congratulations Messages for a Card

Recovery is a process that takes time. Even though every day of sobriety is an accomplishment, milestones provide opportunity for others to celebrate with a person in recovery. A person's sobriety anniversary can also be called a sober birthday or recovery anniversary. This could be marked by the last day of use, the day after final relapse, or the day the person decided to get help.

For someone in in recovery, these milestones mark important achievements of sobriety. People in recovery may thank those who've helped them on their journey and reflect on their progress. Congratulating someone at these times is one way to be encouraging and inspiring.
