If the way you described yourself is how you truly are, then I don't advice you learn on your own for now because lots of efforts will yield low results.

Get someone to teach you after which you develop yourself from there. I could teach you remotely if you're interested.

Programming is like learning Yoruba Language or Igbo language. Just that the people who you speak it to are computers. Coding is the moment you write the language to computer so that they can interpret it. Unlike human most computer don’t speak they instead love to read and write response back to you.
If you learn to speak English Language while you were young and without any skill why not now.
Simple get a laptop and start coding.
For your level start with JavaScript Programming Language (Not because it is easy but because it is easy to start coding with it).
You may need to learn HTML and CSS although they are not programming language but they are entry knowledge to starting JavaScript. YouTube tutorial vids will do the magic for you.
