Just here to say that both of those PSL books are excellent resources. I just finished Theory and Practice for Socialist Organizers last week and it gave me a much more comprehensive understanding or Marxist inquiry and presentation, which has been suuuper helpful in my reading of Capital. I highly recommend PSL literature in general.
My limited advice to OP: if you have any organizations nearby, maybe go to some meetings or rallies? You don’t have to do so with the explicit purpose of wanting to be an organizer (I know it’s not possible for everyone), just go to interact with others. I was pretty alienated from everyone for a while (ever since 2020 really) and I started going to DSA organized mutual aid, rallies, psl meetups, etc. and it really helped to build back my social skills and overall has helped my mental well-being.
