Fixing and adjusting your sensitivity in CS:GO is all about finding the right balance that works for you. Start by setting your DPI (usually between 400-800 for most players) on your mouse software. Then, hop into CS:GO and adjust the in-game sensitivity (try starting around 2.0 for 400 DPI). A great formula to calculate your 'eDPI' (effective DPI) is simply: DPI * in-game sensitivity. For example, 400 DPI with an in-game sensitivity of 2.0 gives you an eDPI of 800. This is a solid baseline, but feel free to tweak it from there!

Just trial and error, honestly. Start low, then inch your way up until it feels just right. Everyone's different, so no magic number here.

Pro tip: Keep it low. Lower sensitivity means you gotta move your arm more, but it seriously ups your accuracy. Worked wonders for me.
