How can I get a birth certificate from Guatemala?

i was born in guatemala, adopted and brought to the US when i was a baby. i'm in desperate need of my birth certificate and social security card (both have disappeared). i can't get it in the US. what do i do? i also don't have any government issued ID (due to not having these documents). will that be a problem when trying to get these things?
i should also mention that the only ID i do have is a school ID BUT it says the name i've gone by all my life, which isn't my legal name. my parents were dumb and never properly changed it
