Take a loan, take time off work to go to a tradeschool or a college.
First thing to reconcile is deliberately deciding you alone are choosing to be a professional in something, and that means an obligation to practice that skill so long as you're in the profession.

With tradeschool, go for something constantly in need that doesn't require immediate proximity to others (CNC machinist, Electrician, Robot operator/tech). Avoid labor that doesn't require certifications, and avoid retail and dining.
Alternatively get a degree something like law, engineering, medicine (RN programs) while searching constantly for internships.
Maybe check in for jobs with your state (if US) as well.

Any time you need to reign your focus back in on academics, just think of the labor job you have now, it'll work as a great motivator. 100% serious too. Even with a degree in hand it will be challenging, but once you're in a role even an internship you've got skin in the game to keep working up.
Many of these jobs are going permanently to work-from-home; could you imagine that vs where you are right now? I'm making $100k chilling in my house all day working from the computer. Sorest part of my body is my ass. Not saying that to mock you but saying investing in yourself is fucking worth it. You will be the one asset you possess your entire life, and time invested in yourself will always have returns to you.
I had knuckle busting labor jobs before, I keep a grease soaked leather apron I wore for a gig hung up in sight of my work desk as a reminder of what my mind can provide for me if I use it.
