Lost Documents with Catalina update

The only documents that I can find are the few I have under "recents". I tried a few suggestions found online but to no avail. Any ideas where my documents could be?

Did you enable iCloud? If so, look in your iCloud drive.

I can't find any of my documents following the new system update to Catalina? I used to have a file called 'documents' with all my work in, but can no longer see it? Please help!
