Psychology Student Not Finding Any Volunteer Opportunities

I have emailed 10+ profs in early August to volunteer for research and have yet to hear anything back. I have a perfect GPA heading into U2 and I just can't find anything. My emails have all been polite and concise; I introduced myself, expressed my interest in their specific research area (which I am genuinely interested in) and asked to volunteer and still nothing. I even attached my CV and transcript too, but I only got replies from two profs saying they didn't have anymore space but that's literally it. Am I cooked? What am I doing wrong? I lowkey ran out of profs to email since I only email those whose research I'm interested in.

How the heck do I get to volunteer to do research? Please help, I do not want my dreams to be crushed simply because I cannot find a volunteer opportunity
