Hypertension or Depression...?

Hypertension or Depression... Which 1 is the most crucial condition?

untreated hypertension can lead to stroke or kidney failure... which can be both painful and life altering...possibly life threatening. However untreated depression can lead to deadly thinking or acting. Both should not go untreated, and it depends on how serious the situation is on each to determine which is the "most crucial" both can end in death or poor quality of life... don't suffer if you can get help.

Hypertension can bring on depression because of incorrect circulation to brain cells. This interferes sharply with nutrient recognition.

I don't know. Which is worse for you? Dying or feeling like dying?

Went through both. I'd say depression is the worse of the two, because you really dont notice the hypertension unless it is very high (ex. systolic is around 200). I would reccommend getting treated for the hypertension first, and then working on the depression. Try to get away from depression without medicine, that is the best way to do it. Also like the person above me posted, hypertension can bring on depression, so be sure to have that treated first.

The most crucial condition would be hypertension. That will kill you much quicker than depression. They are both treatable.
