Hmm. Yeah, and not to mention Thanksgiving you may have to be around a lot of family.

What about taking a look at your schedule and getting ahead of yourself? You just need to allow 4 or 5 days of recovery time. After that you'll be good to go. With your level of usage, honestly man, I would get it done as fast as possible. For a day or 2 it will be shitty, but you'll surprise yourself how fast you recover.

I would say taper because you're at a low dosage, but I have no good experience with that, and from what I hear, that might just extend your withdrawal period over a month or so (obviously not as severe), and that might have a worse effect on your studies than if you just took the plunge and got that shit over with.

It's all mental though, just pushing forward. Think about how many students get the flu for a week and are still functional at school. I know I've done it. Kratom withdrawal just adds that extra level of anxiety and self doubt, I know.

I think if you were to ask the people who have jumped from your level and time of usage, they would say that they were back to functional pretty quickly. A couple days, maybe start your CT on a Friday and give it the weekend. You could probably always take the Monday off, if you absolutely had to
