I am quite worried I might get depressive or psychotic episode during my date,it would be really awful and embarrassing,in 5 hrs time I hope it doesn’t happen

Don’t worry, if you have some prescribed benzos, I would take a low dose. Just be yourself and try to take it easy, be casual and make small talk - talk about things like the weather, celebrities and movies, talk about general popular subjects - keep it simple, but interesting. Do not try to over impress her - don’t go overboard, and play it rather cool - Good luck to you and try to have a good time, go with the flow

you will be fine , take some deep breaths, lavender oil on your collar is soothing.
remember your date will be nervous too.
take care
I like dating . . . May you have fun!

Risky business.
Don’t care for it myself.
I have not dated in 25 years, good luck anyway.

There is no other way to conquer it than willingly expose yourself to whatever bothers you…tipsy helps a little. Otherwise, anxiety controls but things are so much harder dealing with the schizo symptoms and social problem, stigma, being on nutty stalker radar…Cannot beat yourself up for making a decision to just be happy with whatever…
It’s ok,I am bringing a normal mood and hope I will go with the flow as @Wave suggested
Thank you guys for advice,I will try not to be too anxious and talk more than usual but not forcibly,1hr more to go,excited!
