Go see what you can work out with your profs. Hopefully they will be willing to work with you.

Many schools will allow you to walk with the class with a fake diploma, if you only need a class to pass, that can be taken during the summer, if it is offered again at that time.
Though it is past tense,and I do not want to say, "you should of this,blah,blah", but you should have not let it go this far,you need to always work with the instructor and/or advisors when a person is struggling. So often we can start a semester, only to find out that one of the courses wasn't right for you at that time,the faster you withdraw from that the sooner you get your money back for that course,if it's within that week you get all of it back and then can take that course at another time. I struggled with algebra and pre-calc, but I went 3 times a week after and/or before classes for free tutoring from the school.
I also was just DXed with bipolar,etc.had a meltdown,felt suicidal, even ended up signing myself in by T's suggestion, during some summer course,which delayed my time of having one of my final papers in, I told professor the situation, even had a note written by my T of where I was, and if possible gived me an extended due date. It is and was involved but I did it, I never was a party person like some fellow students, but then they were young kids, I was in my early 40's,married, and had a kid, so maybe that helped with the good grades I had.
No, you are not screwed, you need to consult with your advisor and/or professor, they know if the struggling is due to problem(s) vs partying, if it is caused or was caused by partying, well then you have yourself to blame, if it was due to disorder/illness, they should be understanding and work something out with you, give it another try, it can't hurt,eh?
Keep the faith within yourself, you can make it, it may take longer than others, but you can do it.
Please take care,
DE


BTW
The last 2 semesters, I made Honors list. I worked my butt off,sacrificed some times out, but made it, and yes, even with the DX of Bipolar and ADD,family problems, the meds (some brutal then),kept pdoc appts,etc. I managed, can't believe I did it till I look in my closet and see the diploma.
You can do it.
