Blood pressure meds irritability

Just started on lorsatan (hypertension despite being slim and physically fit).

I'm finding it really hard to control my irritability and reactions to DR'S stress.

It is listed as a side effect, but I've been through 5 different hypertension meds all with various side effects (mainly weight gain that I hate).

Just a rant really, I wish I didn't need these at all.

That's awful. I get on ok with Losartan except for the complete disappearance of my sex drive

I get on fine with enalapril.
Also tried labetalol- fine but have to take multiple times a day.
Methyldopa- hell on earth avoid like the plague
