I'm trying to get through college, but are some people just not cut out for it?

I don't want to make any excuses as to why I'm not doing well. I'm simply not trying hard enough. I mean, it means a lot to me, when I'm in class and get an assignment I take it seriously and when I don't complete an assignment, I feel like a loser. Why am I having such a hard time with this? My english and math classes are just destroying me. I'm irresponsible, dont have the motivation.

When I think about the fact that I'm disappointing everyone in my family, it makes me feel so shitty. Nobody in my family has gotten a degree, I'm the youngest, so everyone expected that I'd do it fine, but I feel like I'm just not cut out for it. I barely scraped through High School, I went to an alternative school but it's like the pressure is crippling.

Are there some people who just dont have the "stuff" for it? Or am I just using this as an excuse? I literally feel like I need a lot a lot of motivation and help from people to do these things, and it's just not there at all.

I feel like if I don't go to school and get a degree, I wont become anything in life. Is there any hope for me? Anyone have advice?
Im supposed to be writing a paper about "Education at the college level"

I literally feel like a piece of my brain is missing and doing this essay isnt possible. idk what to do.
