I was diagnosed with high bp 150/90 4 years ago and was put on met xl H 25 since then. After evaluating my all reports like ECG, 2decho, CBC, xray,sugar and cholesterol my doc told me you have stress related issues. I told him I remain restlessness and over think a lot like I am not in a present moment.in my mind I am always thinking something and enjoy that imaginary world created by my mind which of course is not true but I am now addicted to useless thinking rabbit of my mind. Something it thinks of past, sometime future, sometime about lust because of this I am not able to concentrate and focus on any task. Soon I realized that even when I am taking to any person I am physically communicating but my mind is thinking something else. I am feeling as if my mind and body not coordinating properly. I went to a psychiatrist 1 year back he put me on paroxetine for 7 months and I recovered from my anxiety/depression but it again came back. Now I don't want to take that medicines to control my monkey mind and want some psychologists advice .I do not want to take psychiatry medicine which will treat the symptoms for some time but instead want some technique to calm this over thinking mind or restlessness mind. Also I am physically OK so I don't know the exact cause of my bp .but one thing I know from my childhood I was like ADHD type of person, who developed anxiety or stress problem latter on. My psychiatry told me you are an anxious person and also depressed. I said how can be an anxious person depressed because I was a kind of person who was always thinking about I should study hard, should get good marks, and should find good job. Also I can a lot of fear deep in my mind. Now I have lack of interest in earning and doing job. please help. If possible give me some suggestion/advice to overcome this negative emotions of mind and also hypertension without medicines as I don't want to be in this vicious cycle of stress, anxiety, depression, worry. please give me some psychologists advice and not a psychiatry medicines as I know medicine will only give me some symptomatic relief & not a permanent cure.
