Is it common for teens who have an anxiety disorder to have high blood pressure?

No it’s not: Anxiety and in the age group especially the older population usually involves an elevation of the top number of the blood pressure, the systolic blood pressure. What is your blood pressure? Even teenagers can have secondary causes of hypertension from adrenal tumors, and more.

No: carrying extra weight is a common reason for one BP to be elevated. There are other reasons that require intervention , however so f/u with PCP to get it managed
