Yesterday this awful feeling of anxiety and depression came over me and I couldn't shake it. I was awake half the night just worrying about things I wouldn't usually worry about (work and money, nothing unusual)

It's still really bad today. Now we have a bp monitor in the house because DH had high blood pressure a while ago. Mine runs a bit on the high side usually too. I've just checked it and it was 148/109. Checked again and it was 147/109. That's quite high isn't it? Could this be what's making me feel so fed up and anxious all of a sudden?

I'll check it again in a bit and book in with the nurse to get it checked at the surgery next week I think?

It could be that your BP is high because you're stressed about work/finance rather than vice versa.

Definitely worth getting it checked/discussing with a professional though. Hope things improve for you Flowers
