I hate the uncertainty and pressure that is coming with being close to finishing school and feeling like I need to find a job. I literally hate it

Perhaps it's not so much the future as it is the present which is causing you to be so anxious and stressed. The natural fear of an uncertain future might be what your mind is using as an outlet to release all the anxiety and emotional turmoil that has been building up lately, but which you either aren't dealing with or is being bottled up more than you might think.
In either event I would be happy to help distract you or, if it's possible, ease your path.
Ah, screw it, it doesn't have to be either/or, I'm good at multitasking ;)
I don't know...I'm doubting myself a lot lately. I'm not a self doubter typically. I try not to be arrogant, but I feel I'm someone who is pretty certain of their own capabilities/self worth, and I find myself doubting on a consistent basis that I'm going to be able to pursue a career in law and break into this job

Since you are normally certain about your own capabilities and selfworth then whatever is causing you to doubt yourself now is most likely coming from an outside source. Set the future aside for the moment and think, what else is going on in your life at the moment that is causing you to feel doubt and uncertainty? Could it be school, social, or family related

Yes but, I can't overlook the fact that this is the first time in my life that I will be almost certainly finished with school, and without much more of a plan. I truly believe that that is, at the very least, the prominent source of where my anxiety and issues are stemming from. Before this 'the future' was a concept that would occur once I finished my undergraduate, or, once I got into and completed law school. It's unavoidable that come July I will officially be finished and those background certainties are done and finished. I need to come up with alternative game plans (as we all do) and I currently don't have anything set up

Well there's your first step already done, you know what you need. You need a plan.
Okay, instead of looking at the larger picture, break it down in to small steps. What do you need most once you are done with school? A place to live? Find a place to live, do that and that's one more thing out of the way. If you can set that up now I'm sure it will likely clarify the next part of your plan.
Just break it all down into what is most needed once you finish school, a single item at a time. I know you can do this and you know you can do this. You may have the occasional doubt, but I never doubt you.
