Brief Answer:
Blood pressure should be controlled ASAP.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for using HCM.

I have read your query and understand your concerns.

Xanax and Zoloft are drugs used to control and improve anxiety and depression issues, not high blood pressure.

Headaches are one of the most prominent symptoms of high blood pressure, treating blood pressure will improve headaches too.

Consider consulting with your primary care Doctor and get evaluated further about conditions related to high blood pressure such kidneys and heart disease, high blood lipids, etc.

Treatment also should be started ASAP, because of the possibility of brain and heart damage ( mainly ) by high blood pressure.

Hope you found the answer helpful.

Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care.
