Missed prayers & fasts
Many of us have prayers or fasts to make up. Count them calmly, then turn the number into a small daily habit. Nothing here is saved unless you sign in, and nobody else ever sees it.

2Fasts of Ramadan you missed
days
أَيَّامًا مَّعْدُودَٰتٍ فَمَن كَانَ مِنكُم مَّرِيضًا أَوْ عَلَىٰ سَفَرٍ فَعِدَّةٌ مِّنْ أَيَّامٍ أُخَرَ وَعَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ يُطِيقُونَهُۥ فِدْيَةٌ طَعَامُ مِسْكِينٍ فَمَن تَطَوَّعَ خَيْرًا فَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لَّهُۥ وَأَن تَصُومُوا۟ خَيْرٌ لَّكُمْ إِن كُنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ١٨٤
[Fasting for] a limited number of days. So whoever among you is ill or on a journey [during them] - then an equal number of other days [are to be made up]. And upon those who are able [to fast, but with hardship] - a ransom [as substitute] of feeding a poor person [each day]. And whoever volunteers good [i.e., excess] - it is better for him. But to fast is best for you, if you only knew.
Al-Baqara 2:184 · Saheeh International
Count each day you did not fast for a reason such as illness, travel, pregnancy, breastfeeding or menstruation, and any you missed without a reason. If you can never fast because of a lasting illness or old age, the Quran speaks of a ransom (fidya) instead: a teacher can tell you how it applies to you.

A word before the numbers
Whatever the number, the door is open. Start small and keep going: a little that lasts is better than a lot that stops.
قُلْ يَٰعِبَادِىَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَسْرَفُوا۟ عَلَىٰٓ أَنفُسِهِمْ لَا تَقْنَطُوا۟ مِن رَّحْمَةِ ٱللَّهِ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَغْفِرُ ٱلذُّنُوبَ جَمِيعًا إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلْغَفُورُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ٥٣
Say, "O My servants who have transgressed against themselves [by sinning], do not despair of the mercy of Allāh. Indeed, Allāh forgives all sins. Indeed, it is He who is the Forgiving, the Merciful."
Az-Zumar 39:53 · Saheeh International
Where schools differ
Witr
The Hanafi school counts witr as necessary (wajib) and makes it up: 852 witr here. The Shafi‘i, Maliki and Hanbali schools consider it a strong sunnah and do not require it.

Prayers missed on purpose
Most scholars of the four schools say they are made up. Some scholars emphasise sincere repentance and many voluntary prayers instead. Follow your school, or ask.

How to pray them
Order, shortening for travel and the times when praying is disliked differ a little between schools. Your teacher or local imam can guide the details.
