It's okay, I know it's scary right now.  Just allow yourself to breathe - it will make you feel better and bring the anxiety level down a bit.

Do you have a regular Dr. you could talk to about what you're going through?  I know, from personal experience with a family member who was addicted to cocaine (or maybe still is? I really don't know anymore) that it's a good idea to be checked out physically - it will help to put your mind at ease and at least let you know if the symptoms you're having now are something you need to address medically

You already know you have to quit so that is a very good start - feel good about that!  Now just get yourself some support from a professional and you can be on your way to a better life.

But we're always here so please keep posting - I'm sure others who have personal experience themselves will reply to you as well.  And venting your feelings right now is so cathartic - it really will help.

Good luck to you!  :)  And a big CONGRATS to you for reaching out for help.  :)
