two weeks and i completely fucked myself because some adderall abusing fuckin' SHIT told me he does 50 words per day

how do i salvage myself now? do 0 new words per day for a few days so i have manageable reviews and better retention of the old overwhelming words?

i mean i really don't want to drop new words because that just slows progress but i'm getting swamped here
