Mental health day

If you were feeling down and overwhelmed lately where you felt on the verge of tears all day would you take a mental health day from work?

I’ve just been so overwhelmed with life lately, everything has been so busy and stressful that I feel like I’m going to break down at any moment. My house is also a disaster which is adding to my stress and I feel that calling in “sick” tomorrow would give me a day to just rejuvenate, get some cleaning done and hopefully start feeling like myself again.
