Lightroom CC 2018 on Mac constantly not responding - help!

Please help - I am constantly having to reboot lightroom after it stops responding almost immediately after opening again and trying to start working. It has got worse over the last few days and I am extremely stressed as I have so many deadlines overdue for clients to deliver their wedding galleries and I've not been able to do any work.

I have tried updating the software, my mac, cleaned out/decluttered my hard drives, restarted the computer itself and it is still struggling.

I've read on other forums uninstalling and reinstalling lightroom might help - but I really don't want to have to do anything which might corrupt the catalogue and I get worried when changing or moving important files around. Would my catalogue still be in tact if I were to uninstall and then reinstall? (Sorry I am useless with this kind of thing) I'm not even able to back up my images or optimise the catalogue because I just get the colour wheel going round in circles so I just have to shut lightroom down..

Any suggestions or help would be much appreciated!

Go and google or go and search in this forum for MAC Mojave vs LightRoom, lots and lots of issues.

Or or wait a bit and some members with Mojave may respond.
