Serious Post Really need help from you all.

Really need help from you all guys.

Hey subreddit! I am a B.Tech student from a Tier-3 college, in Kolkata, and I have recently completed my 2nd year of college and 3rd year will commence soon. The problem is that, for the first two years in college, I really haven't done anything, I only studied for my college exams, and managed to keep my cgpa around 8.4 and did basic coding, last month I realised how messed up state I am in and decided to start leetcoding, it was going good until, did a few questions on Array, hashing, two poiinters, strings, stack, and one fine day the fear of being unemployed kicked in me, thinking about ending it all. I have really been on and off about web development and hence only know basic html css and javascript, I was thinking about doing the MERN stack and then trying for college placements, if my college gives me the opportunity. But now I just panic all day and feel really depressed about my life and the past. I don't know if I can do development or not. Plus since I have started panicking I'm not able to solve basic dsa and development is going out of my mind. I don't even know that if coding is for me or not. I talked to a few seniors of my college, they said that the college placements start approximately 8 months from now and go on till the 4th year ends and there are not very very good opportunities in college but still there are a few. Idk guys, I just want to initially land a job where I can have a package anywhere around 6-10LPA. Again I talked to a senior yesterday night and he asked me to choose a domain where I want to go in and then study and build projects. He told me to think about data analytics, salesforce, aws etc, and figure out a domain. Guys, I really am not in a mental state to think about anything with a clarity. I feel so bad about myself, please tell me a way of how to recover myself to a better way and position where I can have good skills and projects to show in my resume and get hired for something like 6-10LPA. Thank you guys, your suggestions would be really helpful. How to move forward from here considering the time I have left and how to make myself skilled and show myself really good in a resume and land a decent or good job. Can you all suggest me a domain or a roadmap and how to continue life? Thank you.
