Keep trying and keep practicing. Install FreeCAD and practice with MangoJelly tutorials to learn.
One thing that often makes it hard for people switching to any new CAD is things don't work the same way. So do your best to forget the way you used to do things. Fusion isn't FreeCAD and FreeCAD isn't Fusion. You will need to learn new things. So don't expect it to work the same way.
The next thing that is very helpful is to find models to practice and gain confidence and skills. MangoJelly tutorials are great to learn from, but you need varied practice to gain skills. Here are 50 models you can practice with to gain confidence and skills using any CAD program. Other practice models can be found if you do some searching.
Good Luck!
