Forge 1.18.2 M1 Mac (Couldn't select a valid version of the Java runtime to download)

[PlzHelpImDying]

I have been trying to run the forge client for a very long time and have done a bunch of troubleshooting but nothing seems to work. I have uninstalled and reinstalled everything connecting to java as well as assigned a .Bash_Profile and changed the JAVA_HOME PATH. Whenever I open minecraft forge in 1.18.2 I still get the error message "Couldn't select a valid version of the Java runtime to download" could someone plz help.

Probably this issue? https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MC-252565?focusedCommentId=1170527&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Acomment-tabpanel#comment-1170527

Forge never attempts to select or download java, it is Mojang's launcher that does this.
