I have big interest in learning languages, does anyone have any useful non mainstream tips or methods?

Polyglotism is mostly a lie, very few people actually speak 5 or more languages, the polyglots copers you see on youtube saying they speak 16 languages are a bunch of lying ego masturbating subhumans, I started learning arabic in 2017 as a hobby and thought that in 2 years I'd learn the language but after 2 years I had a lot of problems dealing with content and didn'y know shit yet I was able to understand everything those "polyglot" coping subhumans said, that's cuz they learn basic shit and go around saying they speak it, truly learning a language takes years and thousands of hours and after all of that you must spend time using it or it will deteriorate, there are no shortcuts, I also learned some korean, mandarin, and russian and the same shit happened, only stuck it out with japanese, it's been years of studying, thousands of characters and words learned and I still don't know japanese and would never say I speak it with the current level I have. In this life your level in something = the time you put in (other stuff matters too such as how effectively you are using that time, your intelligence, etc but time spent is the base of it all).

I know, but I speak 3 natively since I have moved lots since a kid, people tell me I have a british accent speaking english despite only living there for a few years, and taking drugs to increase brain plasticity which I find does help now I'm an adult. Also you you gotta remember arabic is probably top 3 hardest languages ever to learn, along with Cantonese and Japanese, so they would probably take a decade to master, and yea I agree only way to learn a language to native tier is to be on drugs and surround yourself in the language 24/7 by living there, another method I found quite useful was to listen to media no subtitles in fast speed, then gradually increase the speed, so then basically you learn to process the information faster and it becomes unconscious.

Total immersion - just move to another country and surround yourself 24/7 with that language(it works for athletes for example - footballers who move to another country, get a guide, translator and language tutor that is constantly with them).

since I'm pretty old now it's not easy to mimic accents of new languages to larp native, especially with accents I am naturally bad with such as polish or russian, would a speech therapist be useful for them to train my accent?
