Using my root account I tried to create a personal account using
'createuser' but I get a message saying that root is not in the
pg-shadow file. How do I create an account then? if nobody here has an
account open with PosgreSQL. Anybody?

Run createuser as the user that the PostgreSQL server is running as,
typically 'postgres'.
