Do not quit your PhD.
What your feeling right now... you will feel again at some point when building a business.
Self doubt, fear, loneliness, questioning whether you're on the right path or not... all of these things are normal and to be expected in any difficult endeavor.
If you give up now, you won't have the confidence in yourself to push through mental barriers later. If you were just starting the program, that would be one thing. Giving up at the finish line is another.
Finish the degree and decide on where to go from there.
