I know exactly how you feel! Everytime I sew, I feel like tossing it out the window Here's a couple suggestions for you. Hope it helps!

Bobbin case tension may be too tight.

Upper tension could be too tight.

Improper threading—double check the thread path and ensure the thread isn’t catching on the spool, laser cord, or other obstruction.

Bad thread – Dark thread tends to break more easily than light, as cotton, rayon, and other weaker fiber threads.

Sharp or rough needle eye. Replace the needle, and make sure you are using one that is large enough (a 4.0 is ideal) to accommodate your thread, especially if it is heavy or metallic.
