I don't know whether it's realistic to hope for it go away completely, my perspective is always to keep it at bay, some days I do better than others. For me I have kind of got to the situation that this is me, it's how I am, I don't think I'll ever be completely anxiety free.
Of course we are all different, and your path will be different to mine. For instance I had struggles as a youngster (ED) so it's been on and off my adulthood.
It sounds like with you it may have been much more recent, maybe it was an extremely stressful period that you are still dealing with the reaction to now.
Stay well
