when I get the error message, “you’re computer has to restart because of a problem.” I cannot try any of the help options such as update system preferences because my MacBook restarts as soon as I login in the whole process goes over again.

So that we can help you best, please tell us which Mac, model and year you’re having trouble with, and what macOS version you’re running, if you can.
See if the problem still happens in Safe mode (press and hold the shift key down at startup). It can take much longer to safe boot (10 min) so be patient.
How to use safe mode on your Mac - Apple Support
Safe mode is non-destructive to user data. It’s not a cure-all, but very often corrects weird software behavior. When you're in safe boot, the machine will not be at its best performance, especially with graphics, but that's expected.
Does the problem persist while in Safe mode?
Exit safe mode by restarting your Mac normally and re-evaluate the issue again.
I don’t have time to do any of these because it just consistently restarts
