My user account is recently damaged. Damaged in the sense, after I enter the password the same login screen is redirected again. So now I've to use the guest session. Are their any possible ways to login my user account from guest session?

Thanks in advance.

You can not fix your user account from the guest account for a variety of reasons.

  1. The guest account does not have sufficient privileges (no root access).

  2. Even if you gave the account root access it is confined by apparmor.

You need to boot to recovery mode and identify the problem.

From https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/shell-guest-session.html

The Ubuntu Guest Session feature provides a convenient way, with a high level of security, to lend your computer to someone else.

...

A guest cannot view the home folders of other users, and by default any saved data or changed settings will be removed/reset at logout. It means that each session starts with a fresh environment, unaffected by what previous guests did.

I can not find the details of the guest apparmor profile on the Ubuntu wiki at the moment, but the guest session is too limited to help resolve your problem, whatever it may be.

I suggest you start a new question describing the problem.
