Im not ever going to be a developer Im just making my own social app and starting to think I bit off more than I could chew. Anyways I just found a good Udemy course was reduced today for $10, I just bought it and Ill plow through that in the next 5 days to get up to speed.
Years ago I did some asp and javascript. If I knew then what I know now I never would have stopped learning Javascript and would have stuck with it. Live and learn

It's normal because you put so much in your head at the beginning and your head is just getting started around these new concepts. I started with Obj-C and now doing Ruby on Rails and web frontend dev too.
What is the most important thing is to learn the concept more than the language. Stanford has a good objective oriented programming course on iTunes U that you can watch for free. CS108 for objective oriented programming concepts, and CS193 for iOS development.
The language is just the tool, learn the concepts and it gets easier.
If you are building a house, knowing how to use a hammer is important but you don't go far. Learn the engineering concepts of how to build a house first.
Don't worry when you get confused. At the beginning I was looking at lines of code I wrote the week before and did not remember what I was thinking then.
