CAN'T SIGN IN TO MY APPLE ACCOUNT IN MacBook Pro 2017

I can't sign in to my apple account on my MacBook Pro. It says "you can't sign in at this time" or "an unknown error has occurred". I have been trying this for weeks and still does not work. The computer it self signed me out, and now it's not letting me sign in. It doesn't even let me create a new one. What should I do?
