After 7 Years, I Found My Way Back to Salah

Assalamu alaikum. Honestly, I feel really ashamed about how I let things get to this point. Going so long without praying was painful, and every single day since I stopped, I’ve carried this regret and self-blame. It wasn’t like I quit all at once-it started with putting off prayers, then I’d forget them. Back when I was 12 and started my period, I’d struggle to pick it up again after. Slowly, I ended up forgetting how to pray entirely. Alhamdulillah, over the last few months, my faith has really grown. I decided to relearn my salah by putting my phone on the floor in front of me, playing a video with the recitations, and following along. Does that still count as a proper prayer?
