When you get stuck on a difficult proof, consulting a solution manual can provide the necessary insight to move forward. Several high-quality, community-driven, and individual solution sets exist online: Project Crazy Project (Chilone)
Unlike introductory calculus or linear algebra, abstract algebra requires a massive shift in thinking. You move away from computation and toward structural, proof-based mathematics. Dummit and Foote does not hold your hand.
