Nervous about waiting tables

So I used to wait tables two days a week at my local elks lodge and I loved it. Now I am their fill in waitress and they asked me to fill in this Saturday and I told them I would. This was a back a few weeks ago when my panic and agoraphobia weren't acting up so much.

Now I am really nervous about having to wait tables knowing what I'm dealing with. I used to do this for years and it should be second nature but this mental illness im dealing with has me dreading this.

I have a fear that I might have a panic attack while waiting tables or my agoraphobia will act up. I'm trying to think positive but we all know how anxiety can be.

I need some pointers on what I should do. I don't want to have to let this liar of panic win and call off. I want to be able to push through lord willing.

Hey how are you now? I am always scared panic and agoraphobia will win and I’m like you! I used to do all sorts of independent things and now I’m always worried about panic coming back.

I'm hanging in there trying to take things day by day. We seem to he a lot alike. It's hard to find people with similar issues who understand what we are going through. I hope you are doing well.
