Yo, dude... chill-out !!! Just take it one day at a time, one step at a time. Don't get all distracted by the enormity of your future. I think we all make choices about which we have reservations or second thoughts.
The night before I had to actually ship-out for Navy Boot Camp I remember sitting in my car, in the driveway at my parents house, bawling my eyes out at the thought of moving into that next phase of life. I was 18 years old at the time. And the Vietnam War was at its peak.
Twenty years later, at age 38, I retired from the Navy with full pension - pay - and privileges. It was a great life... opportunity, travel, respect, experience... and after I retired, I was financially able to "work" at anything which suited my interest.

Yeah just stop going. They won't really look for you. The only problem is that after 30 days you are a felon and there is a bench warrant issued for your arrest. Even then it is not a big deal if you do not plan on getting a good job or mind having who ever you choose to live with charged with aiding and abedding. Go for it, what is the worst that could happen.

You could be dissmissed for doing something wrong
You could be dissmissed if you are un well of if your deamed Mentally Un-stable as in a Section 8 [you here that in all the war movies]

if you have not yet shipped to Boot Camp, yes, you can, just be prepared to get a lot of grief from your recruiter and don;t EVER expect the military to give you a second chance in 5 years when you realize you threw away a good thing.

unless you're only 17, I'm afraid you're bound to go. If you're in the delayed entry program, you can still change your mind. If not, bon voyage.

If you have not entered active duty...probably. Go tell the recruiter that you have changed your mind. If you are active..nope...none without getting in trouble..
