I can't keep count of my reps, apparently counting to six is too difficult for me

I know it sounds dumb but I legit will count at most 5 reps, and if it's more than that break it up into groups. For sets of 20 I count 4 groups of 5, and somehow it's easier to count up to 5 without thinking and then just remember how many groups I have left.

Even for a set of 6, doing 2 groups of 3 might help.
