need help, again. severe anxiety at office job

I posted about my new office job a week ago. Ive been so sick from anxiety i had to skip work for 3 days. Yesterday i found a part time offer for a cleaning job (20hrs a week, 5.50$ an hour). I'd apply for it right away but my family member sat me down last week and told me i'm not allowed to quit this office job for something less lucrative. I know he means well but this job is so hard on my mental health and i can't imagine performing well enough once i'm fulltime especially. The anxiety symptoms i'm experiencing are insane, i'm starting to feel more depressed and drink more just to calm down a little and i know that's not good. So do i choose a job that will employ me fulltime eventually and will make my family happy or do i choose a part time…

So do i choose a job that will employ me fulltime eventually and will make my family happy or do i choose a part time job that will be manageable for my mental health and make half the money and take the flak from my family and others ? I feel so lost. I don't know what to do. It still feels like a lose lose situation.
I'm going to family therapy for the first time next week, shold i bring it up again to my family and the therapist?
