Struggling to keep up with my salah consistently

Assalamu alaikum, everyone. I was never really practicing before, but recently I got scared by all the news about corruption and hidden truths, and it pushed me closer to Allah. Last Ramadan, I was at my best-wore hijab, didn't miss a single prayer. But now, even though I know Islam is the truth and Allah is real, my iman feels weaker. I'm just so tired and easily distracted. I know praying when you're struggling is supposed to be sincere, but I'm only doing 3 or 4 out of 5 daily, and sometimes I pray them right before the next adhan. It's been on my mind a lot, and I wonder if my effort even counts.
