Overcoming anxiety about starting my new serving job after 9 months off

I recently got hired for a serving position, and I’m feeling really anxious about starting. I’m 18 and it’s been 9 months since I last worked as a server, which makes me worry that I’ll mess up and my coworkers or managers won’t like me. I have over two years of experience and have always been praised for being a hard worker, but the fear of not being seen as reliable or good at my job is overwhelming. I need this job not just for the money, but also to help my mom and pay for school. The thought of no-showing and having to go through the job search process again is terrifying. I know I should take this opportunity, but I feel stuck and the comfort of not going is tempting. I’m looking for advice on how to overcome this fear and anxiety before I start.
