Just found out that I have high blood pressure today, anxiety is killing me.
I felt weird last night and today, so I decided to ask a pharmasoutical shop about what it might be. i thought it was low blood sugar.
A person working there checked out my blood pressure and it was 158/93 with a pulse of 132. Every since then I have been anxious beyond measure and even had an anxiety attack today. i assume that anxiety further makes my blood pressure higher, and I get more anxious because of my blood pressure getting higher. I called a medical centre and she told me that its my anxiety due to me hearing the news thats messing me up.
How does one handle this? Will it be easier as the days go on? im obviously going to change my lifestyle to lower my blood pressure. But how you yall handle the anxiety?
