I have a friend's wedding coming up. The wedding is in a different city and I've got two reasons why i shouldn't go.

1. If I go it means I'll be taking off a day of work. With the workload I have (work nearly 12 hrs a day) I can't really afford the time loss. (Obviously family and friends don't agree with this 'work problem').

2. I'll be meeting people that I 'dislike'. I'm scared of what I can do to them if they even glance my way. I'm scared of what I can do if I'm in the same city as them nevermind the same wedding.

For the anxiety itself I don't think it makes sense to go. Yet all my 'friends' and 'family members' are pushing me to go. Every two minutes they ask if I booked tickets, where I'm staying, if I told my boss etc etc.

The anxiety for this stupid decision is immobilizing me.

Opinions on this decision please.??
