iMac totally freezes in first aid

My iMac freezes as soon as I start "first aid" I tried running first aid in recovery mode. So far, no luck and I am forced to shut down the iMac. Any ideas?

iMac 21.5", macOS 10.14

Sometimes it can freeze for a while as first aiding a boot drive can cause the system to freeze if leaving it for 5 Minutes and its still frozen make a backup of your Mac and then make sure that your OS is up to date and if that doesn't work then reinstall Your OS and then try it.
