Wow I was going through the exact same thing not long ago! I would talk to a trusted senior person (manager, partner) first and see what he/she suggests. If you don't feel comfortable doing so, then talk to HR directly. Please take care of yourself! YOU deserve the care/sympathy/effort you give others. YOU are the most important to YOU.
Do it now! Don't let the anxiety cripple you, don't overthink (you know that'll only make it worse). You can do it, OP! Take care. *hugs*

I’m trying to figure out the same thing. The problem is my office is small and people talk, so I’m worried about what people will say about me taking leave. But honestly we need to take care of ourselves, this job isn’t worth our well-being
