InDesign CC 2018 crashing on startup every single time

Question

I have inDesign CC 2018 installed (2017 not) and it crashes on startup every single time. Every once in a while, I'll see my file flash before me and then it crashes. It crashes whether I open it from the menubar, the Applications folder or clicking on a saved file. I need this for work so I'm in a huge bind. I've uninstalled it completely and reinstalled twice now too.

What finally worked for me initially was to uninstall 2018 and install the 2017 previous version.
