You need to drown(almost) a few times. I remember almost dying a few times, as a kid in pools, lakes and sea. But I just keep going and eventually become a competent swimmer by the time I reach highschool. How to learn to swim as an adult? I don't know, half of it, is really mental by this time. I would say get swimming lesson and practice in salt water. It's actually much easier to swim in salt water vs fresh water and pools.

- grab on to the side of the pool and relax your body, let your torso and legs float up and get used to the sensation of floating

- in the floating position while holding the side of the pool, kick your legs and adjust your kicking until you feel yourself pushing into the side of the pool

- if you have access to a floatation device, place it in front of you and hold it like the side of the pool and kick until you're used to propelling yourself across the pool

- once you're confident kicking, practice thrusting your arm into the water and pushing while alternating left and right, breathing on one side of your stroke every other stroke

- practice until comfortable and proficient
