Will my anxiety ever go away?

When we tend to be afraid of something, it keeps coming on to us more and more. Anxiety works the same way. Once you set a thought in your mind that you have a lot of anxiety to deal with, you will continue to be anxious. Not about the reason that gives you anxiety, but rather the fear of anxiety itself. Therefore focus on not focussing and worrying about anxiety all the time and stop treating yourself like a patient. Smile more. Do things that keep you happy and engaged.

In fact yes! Anxiety is a temporary feeling that we feel if we have a stressful event or something going on. Finding a hobby or something you enjoy can eliminate feelings of anxiety. Even having a chat on here with an listener can ease the troubles of anxiety. Remember, it's always temporary and everyone has experienced it at some point or another, you're not alone. Best wishes!

Yes, with time, as you unlock new experiences, anxiety fades into the background of your life. Difficult situations become simpler, and the unbearable become bearable.

Anxiety is not the type of thing that goes away. But from experience I can say that with time it becomes roe manageable and depending on the situation may lessen over time with increased exposure.

Almost everyone finds relief in some way shape or form, I have never met an individual with anxiety who hasn't overcome it in a variety of ways. Obviously there is CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), Graded exposure therapy and Medications all aimed to help you cope and overcome anxiety and anxiety disorders. So yes, almost definitely almost certainly yes, it will.

I thought mine wouldn't go away but when I slowed down and made a plan for stressful situations BEFORE I was in them and practiced staying relaxed and remembering that I was really okay, it got a lot better. Now I still have some anxiety but it never has me anymore.

Yes, but you've got to work at it. For instance, try identifying what you think might be causing your anxiety, as well as the unhelpful thoughts that are contributing to your anxiety. Every time your brain shoves a negative thought at you, actively come up with an argument against it -- for example, if you can't stop worrying about how you're going to fail a test, remind yourself of how well you did on previous tests, how much you've studied, etc. Exercising can also be enormously helpful for combatting anxiety, even if it's just 30 minutes a day.

In time, you can learn to manage your anxiety. You might not stop being anxious, but with the right tools and coping skills, you can significantly reduce it and the discomfort it causes. Take some time to get to know yourself: what calms you down, what do you enjoy, what can you do anywhere in a short amount of time? If doing a lot of work is stressful, step away for 15 mn to listen to a few songs that calm you down, for example. If a big stressor is approaching, read a note you wrote yourself about being able to conquer it... Anxiety might show up here and there in your life, but you can learn to manage it :)

Yes it can go away, quite surprisingly. However, it takes time and it takes having faith in yourself. The day you tell yourself that today I'll believe, that for once in my life nothing will go wrong, you'll see that your belief helped your anxiety to wash away.
