Just that really. Worried ill not hold it together. Work is usualy my safe haven (not that home is shit it just kers me busy).

Anxiety has cost me jobs before. This is mydream job but there have been significant changes and im not coping.

Do you have any anti anxiety medication you can take?

When you say lose it do you mean panic attacks?

I think you should go to the GP in the morning.

I can't advise on your anxiety but I do know about fucking things up in the workplace.
"When in doubt, say nowt."
Just try to keep it together for one day. Keep your head down and just make it to the weekend.

Best wishes.

Do you have coping strategies for when you feel the panic welling?

If you don’t think you can cope, take tomorrow off. You have drill yourself up into a panic about th panic (I have been there😔)

I have done both - gone in when I shouldn’t and stayed home.

Maybe see ho you feel I the morning, try and get some sleep. If it’s too hard let yours,for have the day. See if you can talk to a counsellor about Monday, does work offer counselling?
