can try r/meditation for suggestions as well it can be very frustrating at first. one of the first things to "learn" is that its totally normal and ok to be frustrated, to feel like you can't do it, that it is hard. getting to the point where you are ok with it being hard, even if you still cant really pay attention to the object of meditation for any length of time, is progress. when you start getting frustrated, try to remind yourself that its ok to be frustrated, and that all you are trying to do is pay attention to your breath (or whatever), it is as simple (and hard!) as that if it still isnt working, try a different kind of meditation, like mindful yoga or a walking meditation i did headspace at first but didnt want to pay for it, and found a really good free mindfulness based stress reduction program. it does not have the same soothing voice and nice graphics of headspace, but the content is better and it is more of an established (and somewhat clinically validated) program: https://palousemindfulness.com/ https://palousemindfulness.com/
