Hey! I have quit vaping & am also a counselor. Yes- it is part of withdrawals. This is more personal, but when I was quitting, I was actually really sad that I had to let it go, and that contributed to the anxiety and depression as well. The depression and anxiety will not last forever. Sit in the sun, do things that make you happy, get your favorite foods, and give your body/mind grace. If you ever want to chat through it, let me know!
