Mental disorders associated with hypertension

Psychological disorder associated with essential hypertension (psychonosema caused by hypertension) is the most common type of mental disorder associated with vascular disease. Refers to the mental disorder accompanying primary hypertension. The mental disorders associated with essential hypertension are mainly manifested as neurosis-like syndromes, and depression syndromes, hallucinations, and delusional states can also occur. When the blood pressure increases sharply and there is a hypertension crisis, there is often a disturbance of consciousness. The cause of hypertension is not yet clear, and emotional instability, mental stress and other factors often make patients' blood pressure continue to rise. This sensitivity of hypertensive patients to mental factors is clinically believed to be the likely cause of mental disorders in hypertensive patients.
