Russian is hard, remember that! You have done a ton of progress. I know how that feels and you should know its completely normal.

I don't know specifically about russian, but I recently went "back" and just bought a book from a lower level and did the exercises everyday after work. I feel more confident and learned some words that I had somehow ignored or missed.

Might not be feasible for you, but my advice is just exercising, looking up words you don't know, write a short sentence with a new word (on paper, with a pen) and if you are missing some grammar rules you know of, look that up too.

Language learning as an adult is tough, but with discipline you'll get through.

    Glad to hear I was able to offer something!

    Please don't give up, it's usually when frustration is at its highest that we have actually made the most progress. It's just that you understand the language bit more now but you get frustrated by the more difficult parts of the language.

    The initial fun of learning common phrases and words wears off quickly but at some point you'll get that back once you reach a certain level.
