How do you deal with extreme avoidance causing anxiety? I canceled on a call with a non profit organization I'm offering photography services to, twice, and only just made it through the phone call today. The first time I sent an email with a fake family emergency. The second time I just watched my phone as it rang while I was frozen and unable to answer. I also canceled a telemed doctors appointment I needed to get my ADHD medication renewed because I couldn't imagine actually getting on the call... help.
