It sounds like your mind is freaking out about a change. This is 100% normal. Your mind hates change and avoids it at all costs...including at the cost of causing you to feel like you're on the verge of a mental breakdown. Again, this is 100% normal.
Please, just breathe. It is very hard but I promise the first week is the hardest. Just know that a) it's temporary and b) it's downhill from here.
Realize that the cravings are not YOUR cravings. They're just thoughts; they're literally just in your head. Allow yourself to see the thoughts as just figments of your imagination and not something that has control over you and you'll be well on your way.
Also remember that this is a process. I repeat, this does NOT happen overnight. Expect yourself to go thru mood swings, cravings, lack of sleep, etc. If you expect it, then you'll be prepared for the shitty times and you can let them pass with greater ease.
Lastly, I would highly recommend this book. It helped me to understand exactly what's going on while my mind is going thru the transition.
Hope this all helps!

Maybe quitting/having a support system to quit with will be good for you. I'm not anti-weed at all though.
For me though, 1-weed became less of a positive thing for me overtime and 2-I found it very difficult to stop. I can stop drinking on a dime and not even think about it. But for me, stopping smoking has been a tough process (I've gotten high once in the past two months, before I was smoking almost every day and had been off and on trying to quit for 10 months). My life isn't radically different now, but I do think stopping has been good for me.
Also this book was good at helping me quit: http://www.amazon.com/dp/0615483194
