yeah ive noticed it have an issue with that, sometimes i manage to draw lighter but most times it ends up like this

I'd suggest looking into pencil hardness, they have different shades by default. A mechanical pen would also help since it's thinner.

I'd go the other way and make a bunch of loose sketches with charcoal or conte.

Swap the lead for something harder like 2H or above? I have a hard time with pressure also.
