Lately, anxiety has been making it difficult for me to get through the day. Most days, I can't seem to get out of bed and end up missing a lot of classes. Anxiety attacks happen at any time. I'm finding it difficult to concentrate on my course as well. Is it advisable to take a semester off and try to sort things out?

I would say that it's risky taking a semester off, because who knows if you'll feel better or worse when you go back to your classes? That one semester might turn into two or three if you don't feel any better and you might wish you'd stuck it out.
I completely understand your situation and I'm going through the same, I wouldn't suggest taking the semester off but try to visit a counselor to see if they can help your situation. Best of luck
Do not take a semester off. That would be giving into your anxiety. Continue to manage the symptoms and accept them. Don't allow it to control your life. You need to take each day as it comes and stick it out. Therapy and/or meds can help.
I'm in the same place, just debating whether or not to withdraw from this semester. My issue is that I would be mad at myself and hate the idea of losing my independence. But it would be for me to get better. I just understand you
