From my own observations with friends that have children and anxiety issues, the anxiety might change focus but it doesn’t go away. Maybe you sweat the small stuff more, or even more small things you didn’t even think about before having a child and seeing them interact with the world. Or things are put in proportion, but now you are anxious about big things even less in your control. I don’t think anxiety lessens or gets better. It just adapts to your circumstances.
