A member asked:
Would a person who is considered a worrier always have hypertension?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not always: Worrying can be a sign of anxiety, which is associated with increased risk of heart disease. This does not always manifest itself as high blood pressure though. There are ways to reduce the impact of worrying, especially cognitive-behavioral counseling. If you are troubled by these symptoms, i would find a clinical psychologist who can offer cognitive-behavioral or acceptance-committment therapy.
