Anxiety can improve over time with treatment like therapy or medication, but it might not completely go away for everyone.
If anxiety is triggered by stress and when the stress goes away, you feel better. That can happen.
To some people, yes.
It will get better with psychotherapy.
It certainly can, especially if it’s associated with some environmental stressors. However, learning good stress reduction techniques are extraordinarily helpful now and in the future. Would definitely consult a psychiatrist for these options.
