Absolutely!
Despite the Symptoms it's important to remember that you're only considered mentally "sick" if the impairment outweighs your ability to cope with it and live a fulfilling life requiring you to reach out for external help.
If at any point you manage to cope with your initial diagnosis despite the severity of the symptoms and manage to live a happy and fulfilling life you're no longer considered clinically sick.
That's the outcome one would hope when starting a therapy journey.
