Occasional bp spike at midnight. Anxiety

Question

Asked for Female, 32 Years

Since last one month my bp reading is high. Till afternoon it is more or less118/85. But after 6:30 pm, it becomes 141/95 and even more. Since last two three days, it is rising upto 161/105 after midnight. I have anxiety issues. Iam obsessively checking my bp and not being able to sleep because of insomnia and anxiety. My question is, should I start taking Bp medicines at the age of 32? Or I should focus on lifestyle modifications? I have done all sorts of tests, except for vitamin D and borderline TSH (5.033, T3 and T4 within normal range) everything is ok. What should I do? Pls help me.
