Why do you need a degree?
You can do well without one, maybe shift to looking at a career that doesn’t require one and suits what you want to do.
To put it bluntly, it sounds like you’re wasting time looking back at this point, rather than looking at what you can do from your current position.
I’ve been in a similar position and made good progress since I had a mindset shift, trying to let go of the regrets and focus on the small things I can do now instead.
