Can't sign out

Question

Hello! My Adobe Creative Cloud won't let me sign out, the button is there, however it is gray and I can't click it. To give more context, the account that is signed in is not this current one, but my other one, which is a problem. I have all my subscription plans with this account, so since I'm signed in with my other account on Creative Cloud, I only have access to the free trial versions, and I can't access the files I've already made with this account. This is something that, if you know what I need to do, I'd appreciate if you could help! I need to access my stuff ASAP as it relates to college work.
