Running NodeJS in MAC OS 10.13

I'm using an old MAC OS and I didn't have any issue before, but after I reset it and installed the NodeJS and I tried the node -v or even npm -v I get this error message.

adnanes-MacBook-Pro:react adnaneabid$ node -v
dyld: lazy symbol binding failed: Symbol not found: chkstk_darwin
  Referenced from: /usr/local/bin/node (which was built for Mac OS X 10.15)
  Expected in: /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib

dyld: Symbol not found: chkstk_darwin
  Referenced from: /usr/local/bin/node (which was built for Mac OS X 10.15)
  Expected in: /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib.

Just for info, the MAC I'm using: macOS High Sierra, version 10.13.6, Model 2011 and I can't update the OS because it's too old.

If your Mac version is below 10.14 you should install node 16 or below. The latest version 18 of Node is build for Mac OS X 10.15. This issue might be relevant

I solved it by installing an old NodeJS version, I'm sharing a link in case someone else is getting the same error message.
