Anxiety is depressing me!

Well my appointment for my first CBT session as finally arrived. Problem is i am going to have to tell my boss now which i am terrified of doing as the thought of people knowing about my anxiety issues makes me sooo embarrased and ashamed. I have also been told to go too far away from home for my appointment, it means getting too buses a journey total of about 1 and a half hoirs and i HATE public transport as my anxiety is at a ten in these situations! I am going to phone tomorrow and ask if they can make it at my local health centre instead or as close to home as possible. Does anyone know if they will do this for me. I just know i couldnt suffer that journey xx

My sickness review went quite well but they have now referred me to the Occupational therapist. That is a long way to go for your appointment. I was offered to go to the main centre for my CBT or to the doctors surgery or they also offered video link so I think it would be worth you asking.

Im glad it went well for You Annie0904. How are you feeling abot the occupational therapy then. Well i was at physiotherapy today, had a panic attack on the way there i felt terrible and i just broke down when she asked me how i was. I told her i dont feel able to go this far for cbt and she said get a taxi then. Yeah because thats going to help! Not! So i dont know what to do now.
