I would say I felt the same way. I am also self taught and just have high school level math. For the most part of my career though it hasn't really been an issue.

But I want to learn ML so digging in. I feel like it is not as bad as I thought it would be, I think the problem with math information is assumes a lot of things. There are tons of notation that is really dense.

My recommendation would be to pick a project or an area, because math is huge. Try to find resources for that. So for ML it is linear algebra and Calculus. Try to find a bunch of resources and get different ways of explaining it.

I highly recommend:
