need help picking my main and off role

Hey guys, so I have been playing league of legends off and on for years now. Just recently wanted to come back and play with a friend of mine and climb ranked but I’m having a bit of an identity crisis I suppose? I seem to gravitate toward fighters and assassins for champs, but the furthest I’ve ever pushed in the past is gold as top lane. Problem is I seem to be finding issues in each role I try to play.

For top if I don’t pick after enemy top I 100% get counter picked usually by something dumb like a ranged top laner. I know you guys prob hear stuff like this all the time, but even when something like this happens doesn’t matter my jungle NEVER goes top lane. I can be under my turret getting poked for 5-10 mins never leaving it and my jg still won’t gank for me. I try to ping assist and I try to type nicely in chat nothing works. But moment I walk middle of top lane enemy jg every game tries to get me. It’s incredibly frustrating having to deal with this every single game.

For jungle I’ve had periods of playing it and have had alot of fun, but nothing triggers me more than when I’m getting invaded by enemy team and my laners just sit farming in lane. This is a team game and when my team doesn’t understand that it sucks so much.

For mid lane as I said earlier I tend to like assassins a lot. So I usually in the past have tried playing them and I typically do really well in lane phase, but after lane is over I feel like I contribute nothing to my team. Especially if enemy team has 1 or 2 tanky champs on their team I feel like I just can’t do anything but get cced to death. I’ve tried pushing side lanes alone and I get ganked by 2+ of their team. I’ve tried grouping with my team but hiding off to the side to flank and they lose team fights, I’ve tried just catching people alone in the jungle that doesn’t seem to help either. I can’t even count how many games I go 10+ kills sometimes 20+ and lose.

I absolutely despise adc. I’m not good at it and have never been interested in it.

Support can be a lot of fun for me. I know I tend to like fighters and assassins but there are a lot of supports I enjoy playing. My issue with support is similar to mid I guess? Like as an example if I pick naut support and start building recommended items when we get mid and late game I still just feel so squishy idk what to do. If I play like an enchanter like milio I do no damage whatsoever. I can heal my team and shield them but if they arnt doing dmg themselves or getting caught out dying I feel completely helpless.

I really hope you guys can give me some insight here and help me figure out what I should do. I honestly don’t care if I lose some I get it it’s impossible to win all the time, but I def feel like I lose more than I should and I really love playing league but I just feel lost.
