I need help

I feel like I'm failing. I'm not. I know deep down I'm not, but I need your help.

My little boy is happy and healthy, really he is fantastic and is the apple of my and husband's eyes!

He's been breastfed from birth. He's nearly 6 months. I CANNOT get him to drink from a bottle or cup. I'm due back to work soon and I have major anxiety about being able to feed him while I'm gone.

What do I do? And I mean physically, what do I do? Do I continue to try when he starts crying? Do I refuse the breast until he takes a cup? Any help right now will be greatly appreciated as I'm totally at a loss.
