I had to learn counting through repetition. I had thought I could play by feel but that became problematic when I started playing with other people.

I had to slow stuff down and I would exaggerate my foot tap. I would also use dynamics to remind myself of where I am. Playing the first beat of the measure more loudly also reminded me where I was.

Keep at it. I remember being pretty frustrated at times but that was not helpful. Dogged determination was the key for me.
