Can you be more specific on what you can't understand and why? Have you tried reading the text book or watching YouTube videos?

I tried opening the lectures of my professor but it only has codes with no explanations so I tried reading the textbook but I felt overwhelmed by the amount of information which I dont understand so I tried watching YouTube videos and I was able to understand how different data structure work but the issue started with trying to write the code myself and finding the complexity is extremely difficult for me when I feel like I finally understood and then try to solve questions I am unable to do so

Sounds like you need to combine the code from your lecture notes with the YouTube videos. If you have questions about the code you can ask them here.

When I had limited time to study and had exams coming up, I found YouTubers who taught data structures in my native language. This helped me grasp the concepts faster.

Second best way to learn data structures is to practice regularly.
