Try Linux in a virtual machine or on a live USB for a few days to ease into it. There's plenty of beginner friendly distros to choose from that don't require using the terminal. You could even try dual booting Linux and Windows if you decide to make the jump. I'm not going to lie and say that Linux is pure smooth sailing compared to Windows, but I can say that as a former Windows user who was terrified of Linux, after using Debian for a few days I've never booted into Windows on my main PC again
