College killed my only aspiration for a career. Now I just want money so I can buy a house in the countryside. I'm not worried or scared, because I always know there's an easy way out.

oh man. I'm sorry.
graphic design fucking sucks.
Have you tried VFX/motion graphics instead? I've done both graphic design and vfx for a decent amount of time as a hobby, and I vastly prefer motion graphics over gd.
They kinda bleed into each other, but they're different enough that it doesn't make you want to kill yourself from all the autistic shit that comes with graphic design.

yes, motion graphics was one of the few parts I enjoyed, but I see the highlight reels of other artists and just know I'll never be that good. So I gave up.

Same here. I'm 25 with a useless degree and I have no passion or interest in anything. Suicide will likely be my end result.

Ah.
In my opinion though you can't really look at art related stuff that way.
I don't want to tell you how to think, but it helps a whole lot if you can adjust your thought process to be "i want to be as good as this guy", instead of just giving up because you aren't immediately comparable to them.
The key is to use it as inspiration, not be demoralized because of your own shortcomings. When I see demo reels of animators who are better than me, I get fucking excited, because it's a chance for me to learn from someone who is better than I am.
That's the mindset you've got to have when it comes to art stuff. You can't beat yourself up so much over it, because there will always be someone better than you.
I also don't know you personally or how much you've already given up, but if you really want to get good at something like that, all you've got to do is put in the hours. It's possible at 24 if it's something you really want to do, but you can't half-ass it.
Compare yourself to others, but don't be so hard on yourself because you aren't as good as them. Those people have fucking thousands of hours over you in that subject.
Something would be horribly wrong if you were immediately comparable to them in it.
Anyway anon, I'm rambling.
If you ever want to pick up motion graphics again, grab a copy of After Effects and download a copy of Phil Borst's project files here:

It's what I studied a few years ago when I was serious about this stuff.
Hope you figure shit out.
