Some anxiety disorders can heal themselves, but some cannot, depending on how the anxiety came about. Some people have qualitative anxiety that comes and goes easily, and can recover naturally during the adjustment process. Some anxiety is caused by major life events, such as major loss, loss of rights, loss of money, loss of advantages, loss of age, etc. This kind of anxiety is difficult to correct and will fluctuate with life events. Some anxiety is secondary to illness, such as major physical illnesses, such as cancer, terminal illnesses, AIDS, etc., as determined by doctors, anxiety may accompany the occurrence and development of disease events, and many emotional problems caused by such major illnesses, resulting in anxiety that is more difficult to correct and must be resolved with the help of medication. There are also anxiety caused by a major loss that is difficult to get past and may need to be resolved with the help of long term psychotherapy, and one has to find the right psychologist or somatic doctor to work in concert to end it.
