Context: I have a PhD. I found school easy, first degree pretty easy, and PhD bloody hard work. Hated some, nearly gave up, didn't, and am so pleased I finished.
You may hate what you're doing, but what makes you think starting a business will be easier? Yes, you'll be doing what you think you want to do, but I assume you thought you wanted to do your degree.
And trust me - parts of running a business will be far, far worse than finishing your degree. It's even more bloody hard, extremely boring, ultra-frustrating trivia that, if it doesn't get done, will kill it all.
So, for what it's worth, here's my advice. Find something to pay the bills. Postpone your degree for a year, or convert to part-time, and realise that not finishing your degree is a waste. (Compare: it might be a sunk cost and perhaps you should abandon it. What, you expected a simple answer?)
All that said, you must find your own balance, your own way, your own satisfaction, your own contentment, and your own life.
Life is not a rehearsal. Take action. Open doors, try not to close doors.

My opinion, without actually knowing you.
