Hello,

Anxiety related high blood pressure generally needs a treatment with medication and meditation therapy or psychological counselling.

Kindly check your blood pressure after sitting relax fully for 15-20 min, if it comes more than 140/90 then you may require medications.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Bhanu Partap, Cardiologist
