l'm brand new to SDV and I keep getting overwhelmed because I don't know how/where to start and panic as soon as the clock starts ticking. Do you have a guide or tips getting through the start of the game?

If you're brand new, take it easy. You can take as many in-game or RL years to complete it as you want.

That said, I typically use the first day to meet the villagers and buy 25 parsnips (to plant alongside the 15 gifted by Lewis), like in this video. I only clean the necessary to plant the 'nips, plus some pathways between the three farm exits. Plenty people go fishing because it's a good source of early game income, but since I hate it I tend to delay fishing.
