How do i get used to this?
I been trying for months to get in but i feel very uncomfortable when using it and lose my patience real fast.
Any advice?

It feels weird at first but just keep using it and get used to the program your using to make art, keep practicing!
If you're that picky with your equipment, you should have gotten those Cintiq LCD drawing tablets in the first place. Or should have stayed loyal to cheap pen and printer paper.

use a software with actual fast rotation like paint tool sai , painter
or PS with open 3d
this is for actual lineart brushing is more approachable

What exactly is the problem? Is it the smooth, plasticy feel of the tablet that is throwing you off? Or is it because you can't do hand to eye co-ord very well?
If it's the former place a piece of paper on top and voila. If it's the latter you need to keep using it. I used it kinda a mouse (when I'm not drawing) when I got my first tablet so that's that.
Make a lot of shapes, so drill circles and lines over and over until you get use to the way your hand moves with the tablet. I got a cintiq bc I got sick of a tablet but I did get pretty good at using it.
Also draw as much as you can as fast as you can, it's the only way to get use to it with out it taking forever.
Do these excercices

I got a new drawing tablet a few months ago. It's bigger than the one you have on the picture and it was very strange for me. I looked up videos, articles,and threads on how to get used to it and every single time I got the same answer
>Hur hur you're retarded. I got the hang of it in the first two weeks
I found the best solution was just to get better brushes on Photoshop. Not even joking. The default brushes make it look like you're fucking up everything. I got some brushes that simulate real art tools and that helped so much. Now I can even use the default shitty brushes.
TLDR; Get brushes that simulate real art tools.

What brushes did you downloaded ?

this
you need to tell us more OP
what size tablet did you get? how big is your computer monitor? (this can make a huge difference)
You fucked up by buying a tiny overpriced 6" x 3.7" tablet.
I have it, but saving for a bigger one. My had gets fucking tired real fast, especially since it's so tiny you can't really move your arm that much.

They mean your actual monitor size in real life. If your tablet is much larger or much smaller than your physical screen, then it's no wonder that you struggle adjusting to the difference between what you draw and what you see.
Going by the resolution I presume it's a laptop of around 15-16 inch, and the working area of your tablet covers only half of that.
Furthermore, the S-sized Wacom tablets are just stupidly small in general. It's passable if you draw very small in general and exclusively use your wrist, but if you don't it's a pretty damn anti-ergonomic size.
I hope you at least made sure you forced the correct ratio in your driver settings, or your horizontal:vertical cursor movement has been fucked all this time.
It might just be that you're using software that's a bit on the sluggish side, so try something smoother. SAI is generally a good bet, though you can also download a free copy of Medibang or Chibipaint or so just to see if it feels smoother to you.

I actually never thought about that at all
I have no problems drawing with pen and paper but as soon as I try using my tablet I just cant control my strokes to save my life and it is extremely frustrating
I have been owning my tablet for years and tried using it on and off and getting nowhere, i just cant get used to it it seems
I use a 32 inch 4k monitor and I wonder if that might be a bit too much, my tablet is a standard intous "a4 size"
Prehaps I should just invest in a cintique or whatever they are called, or get a surface pro
