No access to half the sites and youtube but can't turn off my adblock due to distrubing ads

Hi! I have adblock for about 10 years, on all my computers, and this issue was never present. Only in a recent few year, it started to block various sites, making me not able to access them and forced to search for the informations somewhere else. At one point I started to turn off adblock on those sites and it was fine - but it isn't, anymore. For the past few months, I can't access those sites even with the adblock turned off - it still says that I have it on. And the worst thing is that, it blocks me access to the youtube videos - not all the time, there are days when I can access any video, there are days when I can access only a few of them and there are days when the youtube is blocked entirely, not allowing me to watch anything.

I can't just deinstall adblock, because the ads that shows on my computer are almost always creepy, scary and distrubing - they are only about the very ill cgildren or people with the facial and body deformations, droughts in Africa and starved children on the pictures or about the various ilnesses and medications which isn't what I want to see every day too. Deleting this ads and flagging them as something I don't want to see, doesn't work. They are still on the next website or just change to another ones. And so, I am forced to give up haf of the sites plus youtube, but it is really annoying. Like, my fiend sends me link to the music and I reply "yeah, but i don't have yt" and they express how weird it is.

Anyone would help how to fix that?
