How to avoid getting burnt out when learning Javascript?
I've been studying and learning javascript for about 4 weeks now but my brain is no longer holding any information that's related to js.... yesterday was the first time that I felt like this. Like a didn't want to learn it. I still kind of feel like this today. Last week I was finally able to create functions with parameters and i was able to make sense of them but now I can barely form a basic var... Should I take a break?

Make small projects. That's the only way to keep js in mind...

No, burn it.
You got a spree.
Focus on applying what you learnt on a project.

When you feel what you did before stops to work, switch gears for a while.
If it was all studying, write code now. If you have no idea, for example pick an easy task from 'Coding Challenges'.
Also there is usually something you could learn that is not as hard, for example a bit more html or css.
Also, often just remembering is problematic. People seem to believe they won't forget what they understood, but unfortunately that's not always true - the brain tends to throw out what you haven't been using regularly for a sufficiently long time.
