You need to contact them asap. Explain how your depression and anxiety affect you and tell them that venue etc is impossible for you to travel to because of your problems. Request a home visit you may need to get a supporting letter from your GP but that can only strengthen your case. Best of luck🐷

All my hopes and dreams for you
