Congratulations. I believe that College has its purpose depending on the career you choose to carry. If you want to work as an architect, doctor or engineer you're required to get a college degree from what I could tell. Graduation doesn't mean you're overly qualified than those who don't being diligent in your studies and carrying for your grades tells a lot to an employer. It says that you're more likely to be responsible, willing to learn, and have a disciplined mind. That's not to say that success can't reach those who don't.
Best wishes in your career!

Congratulations to you, and to you for getting through the tough times.
Please believe that everyone has a reason to be here, and you don't necessarily need to compare yourself with others.
I know how you feel, I'm a foreigner in a German PhD program. The death of several members of my family while I was studying hit me very hard, and the epidemic that followed, as well as a very lonely life, almost made me lose my motivation to live. Day after day, night after night. I survived each sleepless night and disoriented day by reading and playing games to cover the bare necessities of life. Now I'm still trying to finish my PhD thesis.

The results are in and I'm happy to announce that I've graduated college!!!
It's not much but I've completed my degree, it's an Associates in Psychology that transfers so I can kinda speed run a Bachelors one day if I wanted it.
My reasoning: I did it for myself and the people around me. π
(Emotional tangent below, feel free to skip)
I haven't had the best life, I haven't had the worst life, but in the short period I've been on Earth, it's not been the happiest.
I'd struggled with my emotions and reactions to situations for a long time and my great grandmother put aside money for me to go to college and in the past few years, I thought it best to teach myself better when I couldn't afford therapy. I started with a major in Computer Science because I always heard how cool it would be for a woman to go into coding and my robotics teacher in high school encouraged me in it because I picked it up easily. Half way through, my father passed when I was 20 years old and that did a rough number on me. The pandemic and lock down happened the week before my 21st birthday and I didn't really have anyone to go to. Since I lived alone at the time and couldn't afford professional help, I decided to learn enough to help myself. I wouldn't go as far to say it's helped me become the rock of my friend group but it's helped me stand up for my friends more and support them better to help themselves as someone who was too quiet and afraid of the unknown myself to even begin helping others before.
I think in the end, what I wanted most was to one day be able to help educate and be better support for someone one day, the type of person I felt I really needed beside me when I was fresh out of high school, afraid of people, had no guidance at home, and no idea of where to even start asking for help.
I'd like to think I will be that for my younger half sister. Granted she has the benefit of having more support from her family than I could ever could imagine but I'm happy to say that she'd have me too.
Even if I can't be as helpful, she'll at least have me as the "At least I can't do worse than my sister" π
