If you find you can’t sign in, reset your password, or receive verification codes, you can request account recovery ( How to use account recovery when you can’t reset your Apple ID password - Apple Support ) to regain access to your account. Account recovery might take a few days or longer, depending on the specific account information you can provide to verify your identity.
THe above is a better solution than creating a new account. Using a different account will incur some data loss, plus it may render your hardware inaccessible without signing out of the old account properly first.
