So I am in my final fourth year of college and I do not want to be here anymore, I am so tired and sick of this shit I want to drop out.
But I am not crazy enough to do so.
I am considering taking a year out and working for until next september when I will start fourth year again.
I am just wondering if this is a good idea or not, I think working a few shit jobs might give me the motivation I need but I am worried ill end up never going back.
Any advice or experience anyone is willing to share about this?

Gut it out. Life's not always about what you want. Get it done with and then you can move on.
If you've only got a year left, just fucking power through there's no point in taking a break and you'll be more likely to just never go back and finish. You can and probably will work some shit jobs right after graduation anyway while looking for something in your field.

Statistically, the odds are that if you drop out you won't come back. Of course you might be in the minority that do.
If you do take a year off, don't just disappear. Arrange with your dean to take a furlough or whatever it's called there, that will guarantee you admission back in.
But really, you're best off if you take a few days off right now to relax and get out of your blue funk of the moment, and then just get through the last year.

I felt like this last year and I got shit results, I do not want to jeopardize my final year with terrible grades because I feel like shit.

By taking a year out I mean defer, I will pay for the year but do it another time.
I have a level 6 and level 7 degree at the minute, I could only see myself not finishing my final year and get a level 8 is if I got a really good job.
