If you suffer from high blood pressure and aren't taking medication to reduce it, then you need to get that sorted. Ace inhibitor, beta blocker, alpha blocker are the usual levels of escalation. If you still have high blood pressure and aren't on the maximum doses of all of those, then you need to ask your doctor why. It's not just a case of getting back to the borderline, you need to be targeting a good result before it's too late - I had no symptoms of high blood pressure, right up until my stroke. That was an indicator that something needed to be sorted!
Then discuss the panic attacks if they still continue. If they are continuing and the blood pressure is under control, then at least you know they aren't related to the blood pressure issues. From there, I'd suggest counselling and looking at something like prozac (or whatever the generic is) to see if that helps. It may be something that you need to medicate, it may be something that you don't but it's obviously an issue that you need to get resolved.
Make sure you tell your doctor everything you can think of that might be relevant - to be it sounds like you have high blood pressure combined with depression, but that's just my layman's diagnosis based on having suffered with both of them in the past. If I'm right, then it's an awful situation to be in, and I really feel for you. Even if you don't feel "depressed" that doesn't mean that you aren't suffering from depression - being able to confront the problem and get it resolved takes strength, courage and resolve. Your first step is talking to an expert - I'd suggest doing that ASAFP and stepping away from CUK where you aren't going to get the support that you need.
Good luck, and I hope you're better soon
