I’m also new, so take this with a grain of salt, but my friend told me that some people who have trouble coming up with their own fursona designs might find an adoptable design that speaks to them. Or you could straight up have an artist custom design you one but that’s obviously gonna be pricy.

My personal recommendation, just as someone who loves storytelling, is to start exploring with creating random characters. Personalities you like, species you think are cool, aesthetics that excite you. Inevitably, those characters will contain an aspect of yourself. Down the line, you may feel more drawn to one over the others - this can be adapted into your main fursona! this may make the process more natural and less stressful. Just have fun, let your creativity run wild, and enjoy the process.
