Anxiety and depression lowers blood pressure
This study do not support previous hypothesis that emotional stress may be a cause of hypertension. Our findings indicate that symptoms of anxiety and depression are associated with decrease in blood pressure, particularly when a high symptom level can be detected over decades

Association of low blood pressure with anxiety and depression
