I have developed hypertension when i was 26years old. My b. P. Measured 170/90.i have done all the tests but every result came normal. Doctor prescribed me diltiazem hydrochloride 90mg one tablet daily which i have been taking since last four years. Recently it was found by a psychiatrist that the reason behind this condition is high and chronic anxiety. So he added escitalopam 10 mg along with diltiazem. I hope i am not the only person to suffer from high b. P. At such an early age

    Hi, Tapan, I believe I was in my 30s when I was prescribed blood pressure pills. Is exercise a part of your daily routine?  Also, yoga and stretching along with massages could be helpful to reduce stress.

      I practise Yoga and pranayam on regular basis. This is helping me become calm.

      Hi Tipan, I would also suggest adding any of the following gardening, walking,  hiking, biking or swimming.  Sometimes if we can find something we enjoy, it helps to calm us.  Hope you feel much better soon.
