So, I had to leave work early today because my ptsd was acting up extremely bad. I pulled my boss and explained everything to her, this week is usually a very rough week for me because it's around the time that a very traumatic event happened.. so my mental health is usually extremely bad. She told me to take as much time off as I need, don't get me wrong. My boss is very very understanding when it comes to mental health, but I still feel like l'm such an awful worker for booking time off...

If your boss is understanding, don't you think she'd prefer it if you took the time to process what you're dealing with and come back fresh?
Yeah, she does prefer that
It'd be better for you as well. And when your mood is good you generally perform better at jobs.
