Communications degree: Am I doomed?

I know this has been previously discussed, but I need some encouragement to keep going.

So long story short: I'm a Communications major entering my senior year. I have many regrets choosing this major and I'm extremely worried about my current and future career opportunities. I initially chose this major for two reasons: 1) I want to go to law school and 2) My professor for my first comm class was so captivating and actually convinced me to change my major from justice studies to comm. I loved this professor so much that I ended up taking her for two other comm classes.

After applying to dozens of internships, I just accepted a content/strategy marketing internship. My previous 3 jobs were working as a Paralegal, Legal Admin, and Administrative Assistant. I'm finding it really difficult to find a good paying job and I worry that I just generally lack "good enough" work experience. In the event that I do poorly on the LSAT or I just can't stomach taking out hundreds of thousands of dollars more in student loan debt for law school, what else can I do with a Communications degree?? I already took out $35k in student loans and I worry that I'll have to take out more in order to finish school. I'm currently living off these student loans and would be homeless (again) if I didn't take them out. I am estranged from my family and have no family support, so I can't go live with mommy or daddy. At this point, I'm already in too deep and I guess I just have to finish my degree in comm. Is this a worthless degree? Am I doomed? What did you do with your comm degree in terms of internships and post-grad employment?
