How do you start doing UX design? [on hold]

I've done research and I understand the purpose of UX but there aren't any actual resources on starting UX for someone without a related job or knowledge. Now before you say yes there are, here is what I mean. I wanted to learn web development, I looked up how to start. Everyone said learn HTML and CSS. I followed a couple online classes and started learning them.

Where/what is the equivalent for UX? I've read countless "beginner UX" articles but I've just ended up overwhelmed and frustrated.
