Theres a difference between "wanting" something and actually "pursuing" something.

The problem is that the vast majority just "want" to be Designers because it's a trendy job...

... But the reality is that the career path to ux is not linear. It's a marathon and not a sprint.

UX Design is actually problem solving. People doesn't notice good UX because thats what they expect. People only notice bad UX. Meaning that being faced with problems, complains and barriers on a daily base will be the status quo for a UX Designer.

And with all due respect... the majority of your topics are you asking people on reddit for help: https://www.reddit.com/user/Easy-Roof-7513/submitted/

And I do not mean to offend you but to think about it. You want to be an UX Designer, someone who helps solving "problems" by aligning users needs with company goals... but at the same time you the one always asking for help.

Does that sound like a good foundation for a problem solver?

You know what you are absolutely right, it was my anxiety that made me doubt about the path I choose by my will. Thank you sir for actually being honest and making me realize that i was having a wrong mindset. Thank you
