First you need to make sure that is your hypertension only due to anxiety like when you get in hospitals or get anxious ?
Or is it essential hypertension what people call HIGH BP commonly..?
So check your blood pressure at home when you are relaxed, ideally soon after waking up.
If it's only due to anxiety you don't need to take antihypertensive daily.
Next Steps
check BP as described above and then consult me for anxiety issues.
