Another important thing to look into before making this decision: Find out if it is heriditary and how heriditary it is. If it is heriditary, you should think carefully about whether or not you would be able to handle kids who have anxiety issues. Yes, I realize that in any case, you don’t know how your kids will turn out, but if there is a likely chance that most or all of your kids will have anxiety problems and that is something that you can’t handle, that is something to think about.

I know people who got divorced because of shalom bayis problems arising from the fact that their wives and most of their kids had ADHD. I don’t know all of the details, and anxiety may be very different from ADHD, but it is kidai to look into it before making a decision, imho.
