While anxiety cannot necessarily be cured, it can be effectively managed with the right treatment. Many individuals with anxiety are able to achieve significant symptom relief and improve their quality of life through therapy and/or medication.
You can help someone with anxiety by listening to them, being supportive, and encouraging them to seek professional help if needed. It's also important to be patient and understanding, as anxiety can be a challenging condition to manage.
