Hypertension can be influenced by psychological factors, with stress, anxiety, and depression playing a crucial role in its development and progression. The interplay between these psychological conditions and hypertension is complex. Chronic stress activates the body’s stress response, leading to increased levels of stress hormones that can contribute to elevated blood pressure. Anxiety and depression, on the other hand, can lead to physiological changes and behaviours that impact blood pressure regulation, including changes in heart rate, blood vessel contraction, and unhealthy coping mechanisms such as overeating or lack of physical activity. Managing these psychological factors becomes essential for comprehensive hypertension care.
