Antiwork

This feels like the right place to ask this

So I work a shitty office job AND have occasionally debilitating panic attacks/general anxiety related issues. Long story short, I ended up requiring a mental health day today but, knowing from experience if I simply told them that it'd mean weeks and weeks of meeting with managers/HR “just to check in” so I ended up contacting the office saying a family emergency had come up and I would give more info tomorrow. Problem is I've got nothing, so whats a plausible bs family emergency I could provide that would require only a single day off but would not invite too many follow up questions? Extra info: I don't have kids, I live with my gf but we're walking distance from both sets of parents- may be relevant idk
