Anxiety is curable, along with medication regular counseling also helps since the cause of anxiety is thoughts. Medicines helps to relax the nerves in the brain but the thoughts needs people who listen to it and helps to differentiate between good and bad

It is definitely treatable. Medications are the cornerstone of treatment and they are stopped only when the symptoms are improved. There are also other methods to help with the anxiety. If you are already on medication ensure you go for regular follow up, and do not make any changes on your own
