You really need to need to reflect on where you want to go from here. If you think you can do school for one more year, I’d say do it. If not, either take a gap year or dropout.
It might seem like you’re against the wall, but trust me, it’s not the end of the world. Honestly, what I’d do if I was in your shoes is get a summer job and save every penny you possibly can, then once the summer ends you’ll be able to stretch your arms. Get a dumbphone and just travel. Maybe that’s Europe, maybe that’s Japan, maybe that’s riding a motorcycle across the country. But I think you’ll start feeling human again once you can do that, and you’ll really be able to reflect on your life with a degree of depth you weren’t able to before.
There’s also something called WGU, it’s online and entirely competency-based. It’s actually what a fair amount of our vets used to get their degree and it’s actually fairly respected. But I’ve heard people have been able to essentially “speedrun it” by transfering a shit ton of credits and in putting in 16 hour days and graduate within as little as 6 months. The degrees they offer is mostly IT, like cloud computing and network engineering, and the degree doesn't mamatter as much as the experience and certifications you rake in in that field, so maybe there's that. And now with working at home, you could live in whatever state and have a Californian salary, or a couple if you're overemployed (if you’re familiar what that is) And then you'll have enough money to really do whatever you want.

But regardless, I get it boss, emotions are high, just don't think there isn't a way out, because there is
