Question about jury service/duty and Anxiety OCD

Please keep anon

Does anybody know if suffering from Social anxiety and OCD could maybe get me deferred or excused from jury duty?

Anxiety and OCD is something i had counselling and CBT a few years ago but its come back again over the last 2 years so the idea of all this makes me feel very uncomfortable

If you got a letter then presumably there are contact details. You could get someone to ring on your behalf and explain the situation. I reckon, but don't know for sure, that as long as you could get a doctor's note to say that making you do it would be harmful to your mental health you could get excused.
