Pushing back an interview twice is a major red flag. Maybe they’ll understand, maybe they won’t. If I were in your shoes I tried to pull myself together and do the interview but if you feel that bad give them an excuse to delay, but beware you may lose the opportunity.
Go for a quick run, take a shower, drink a cup of coffee, and pull it together for these interviews. You got this!!
Do all of that with Eye of the Tiger running on repeat!!

Honestly if you push them back again it’s gonna seem like you aren’t interested or are just disorganized even if you’re mentally in a bad spot. Remember 4 people had to block off time for you. So if you can get yourself together it might be better to go in a little bit mentally drained rather than postponing.
Sounds like you're putting a lot of pressure on yourself? Maybe the tears are unrelated, or maybe your emotions are in your sleeve because you're calling this a potential dream job and applying too much pressure. Relax, do your best, and know there are other jobs out there.
Congrats on the interview! I am really bad at holding tears back personally. I would do what you can to pull it together and take the interview. If you start tearing up/appear scattered, let them know you have bigger personal issues and handle it like you would now. People know life is far from smooth, now especially, and if you handle yourself well in the interview it is a real life example of what a great employee you would be for the company!
*how you are good at handling various pressures both professionally/personally.
If it’s your dream job cry for 15 minutes and then drink some ice water and eat an ice cream.
You want to lose your dream job?
Say a family emergency popped up and you have to reschedule
Find the strength to push through it and then order in comfort food and have a relaxing movie night with some pizza/ice cream/chocolate/wine! You deserve it ❤️
Take a shot! Calm the nerves and give it a go!
Maybe providing a reason for second rescheduling would help if it's something serious. Like did you lose a relative/pet/friend or did you get in a fight with your bf/gf. I would be completely understanding and sympathetic of the first one of I were the interviewer
