Is it OK to use a mental health day as one of my paid sick time?

First time poster, so I'll keep it kind of short. I've been dealing with severe anxiety as of late, and has me dealing with dizziness to where I can barely stand, and it's caused me to be scared of being fired or wrote up if I miss today. I have paid sick time accrued but my boss doesn't see mental health as “a real problem”. Is it ok to use my sick time to help recover and (maybe?) visit a doctor about this? My boss writes up if missed shifts (doctors note or not)
