"Without your help, I do not think that I could do it now."

"Without your help, I do not think that I could do it now."

Is the sentence natural to use?

"Without your help, I could not do it now."

I have learned that this is a kind of conditionals and I was wondering if 'I do not think' can be inserted like that?

And can I also put 'now' in both sentences like that, too?

Thank you so much as usual in advance!

" It's OK. It implies that I could do it at some other time, but at the present I think I require your help. The same is true for the second version.
