(Mac) Forever load screen + full screen

Hello, I have a brand new MacBook Air m5 16 RAM so essentially nothing is on it but sims 4 and about 3,000 cc items. The issue I keep having is resuming game and sometimes when I click manage worlds too quickly a forever load happens. Or when I am in CAS for at least two minutes I’ll finish and get a forever load. I tried everything top to bottom, no cc, no mods (I only have 2), new save, removing sims 4 folder, lower graphics and even uninstalling and reinstalling the game. The only thing so far that has been working is windowed screen and I’ve added my build, hair and clothing cc slowly and it’s loading in 10 seconds like it’s supposed to. I’m still slowly adding the rest of my cc. But is this just a bug I have to deal with til it’s fixed? Or is there a solution? Please help!!

    Can you open Activity Monitor (Applications > Utilities) click on the Memory tab at the top then click on the Memory field so it sorts by Memory usage. Then open your game fullscreen. As soon as it gets stuck in the loading screen do a 3 finger swipe across to the right and you'll be taken back to your normal desktop where Activity Monitor is open. TS4 is probably the first process, how much memory is it using?
