Is it normal that you struggle with Excel as a newbie? I fear I might not be better at it

Stupid question, I know, and it's been more than a week since I started learning Excel. I'm an IT-Business Analytics student from PH, and I'm really trying to get better at using Solver. I'm a bit familiar with the controls now, but I still lack in terms of analytical skills, such as what formula should I use for that cell or what constraints, as every spreadsheet problem is situational. Yeah I think I struggle a lot with situational problem solving.

Idk, I feel like I'm improving but very slowly with negative thoughts in my head like self-doubt and what if my skills and knowledge actually don't improve over time? What if I lack skills after graduation? Am I gonna be a degree holder yet unemployed? Same what-ifs for coding, math, and other technical skills that require strong analytical skills and critical thinking.

I also want to study BSN as my 2nd degree, so I could work as a Nursing Informaticist (and interested in healthcare especially saving lives) from both Nursing and Tech degrees. Same what-ifs too: What if I accidentally kill a patient?

I'm just a newbie, but I'm already anxious if I'm able to acquire the skills, especially since the job market is very bad now. I wanna improve, earn, and get out of the country, but it feels impossible at the moment. Sorry if I'm dramatic, but I'm a bit anxious huhu. Finding some comfort here at least.
