Just like you mentioned you are tired and not sad exhausted, after trial and error of many processes. You are doing your best. Calling the hospital is just like going to the grocery store, a restaurant, or even just coming home. Treat is a mundane taske of no great importance so it takes the weight off your brain.

if you can't physically go to a hospital call them, or see if they offer online bpoking for appointments. If you can't do it get a friend, family or a trusted person to call the hospital or visit with you. sometimes treating it like errand makes it less daunting and more like a chore. so not as nerve-wracking. Always believe the hospital is not a scary place. You are literally paying for these people to help you. it is simply their job to ask you questions, and do what they can to help you. You are simply going there to help themselves.

i mean you can also try and see if you can walkin while running a near by errand tell ur brain ur "just checking this place out".

Also life sucks society makes it worse with lays offs gov inflation and soul sucking parasite behavior. so know that you are not alone, things tend to get mundane.

if push comes to shove let your automode take control.

Basic info you need
name? appointment time?
are you paying with insurance or out of pocket? do you have your id? do you need any other necessary paperwork? do you need to fill any other paperwork? usually new patients fill medical history reason for appointment depression/ suicidal behavior questionaire.

anything else specific theyll let you know. Also you are always welcome to call and ask the doctor for resources, if they know any they tend to point you to either specific organizations or connect you to either social workers or the city for resources. if you need therpay therapists can actually look up specific organization resources they know and reccomend them to you. US is 211 i ur social worker resources line they are not too good.

city deps. and calling ur insurance can also point to resources.
