What were you hoping for when you wrote your original post in this thread?

Why is it problematical to you? If you do not go, do not think you can benefit from it, don't go; use the money saved for something else or save it up for the next emergency so you can afford to see someone then?

However, if you are not content with how you feel now, feel you are limited in going after what you want in life (or even wanting anything in the first place) because of your state of anxiety, that is a perfectly legitimate reason to see a therapist. GAD can be a very emotionally restrictive illness! Are you happy in your comfort zone or would you like it to be larger?

I use to be a walled castle; it was nice enough inside but now I also own all the land around it as far as the eye can see and can ride my horse out on the plain and enjoy the nearby towns' market places, festivals, creative way of living that is different from mine but fun to watch.
