Money worries anxiety

I'm out of job and have been for over a year. I've been actively seeking work but can't connect despite a great work record. I've been trying to participate in medical studies that pay very well but here is my problem. When I screen (physical check-up) for a study my blood pressure goes through the ceiling (150 over 100) and I'm not accepted. Normally it's near perfect (120 over 80)

I'm thinking my money worries are actually causing me to lose money by being stressed. This very thing happened again this morning. At the clinic my blood pressure reads 150 over 100 and taken a second time is even higher at 155 over 103(2k is on the line). I go home completely frustrated and take my blood pressure and it's 118 over 82...I'm at a loss...anyone have suggestions?
