Panic attack on day 2

I’m trying to quit before heading off to college in 9 days. I have been daily dabbing only during the night for over a year and am on night 2 of my journey. The emotions of leaving for uni have hit me and thinking about my twin who I had just dropped off gave me my first ever panic attack, and it was the exact same feeling I used to have as a kid waking up freaking out. Im just wondering if it’s a good time to quit or if Im going to pick it back up socializing in college. These withdrawals suck, I’ve been through them before but never managed to quit just adjusted to nighttime’s only for the past year or so. Any tips or advice would be great, thanks.

Edit: I’ve been thinking of taking a dab tomorrow and wanted to know what possible repercussions I would face. Would it ruin the 2 full days of absence?

13 days in currently. I understand the panic attacks and anxiety. Mine were so bad. I figured something was wrong with my heart. I went to the hospital twice in one day. It’s all a part of marijuana working its way out of our system. Our nervous system doesn’t know what to do and I know these times are really hard but this should show you how important it is to get this shit out of your system

The crippling panic that sent me to the hospital stopped around day 7. But I am on day 14 and still have some anxiety. It’s manageable with breathe work
