Catalina frustration

Something is clearly wrong with that Mac. If you're interested in fixing it, first determine if the same problems occur in "Safe Mode": Use safe mode to isolate issues with your Mac.

What is the process of going back?

Here you go: Revert your Mac to a previous macOS version

The problem is most likely an upgrade from an already dysfunctional system. The result is an even more dysfunctional, but newer, system.

If you want to try and get things working properly:

For future reference:

Before You Upgrade macOS

1. Fix any problems before upgrading.
2. Run First Aid in Disk Utility while booted from your Recovery HD.
3. Backup. Make a bootable clone using CarbonCopy Cloner or use TimeMachine.
4. Be sure your startup disk has 18-20GB of free space during the installation.
5. Upgrade third-party software for compatibility. See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps. If you have mission critical software, then DO NOT upgrade until you know that software is compatible with the version of macOS you are about to install.
6. Disconnect all third-party peripherals.
7. Download the installer which will be in the Applications folder. Quit the installer after it opens, then make a copy of the installer and save it in the Downloads folder. The one in the Applications folder will be deleted after a successful installation.
8. The download is large, anywhere between 5 and 9GBs. It takes time to complete. Be patient.
9. Double-click on the installer in the Applications folder. Click on the start button to begin the installation.

There is nothing inherently wrong in Catalina that would cause the issues you described, previously.

In addition to what has already been said: run Etrecheck and post its report here. It is often illuminating as to what may be causing problems and the best way for us to know a little more about your setup so we offer more tailored help.
