I walked out of the house, only to find ICE... on the windshield and as also on the driveway (found that out by sliding almost into traffic). As I continued to drive it just seems like I"m disconnected of sorts. I just don't know what really is going on at this point. Don't even know what really to say either...

I know my T is concerned, and I could call and get an appointment (but I'm not going out on those roads for a few hours). The roads are a good excuse for not wanting to actually talk about what's going on. Honestly I just don't know what really is going on, I'm in this fog and I can't get out, and it's rather thick. I just can't seem to see the ground and actually ground myself.

Excuses are my best friend, when it's something I don't want to do. Is that a problem?

They can be yes. I say this because I use excuses as well. I wish I had some advice for you. The question is whether YOU are concerned about feeling disconnected. At the very least it might be worth discussing with your T.

On the one hand, a pattern of excuse-making to avoid unpleasant or undesired tasks is something to attempt to overcome. On the other hand, dangerous driving conditions paired with anxiety constitute a perhaps unacceptable safety risk.
