I started learning German from my dad’s Jr. Highschool book from the 1960s but had no one around who spoke German. My pronunciation was… interesting (even trying to mimic what the guide was telling me in the front of the book). When I finally tried to speak to people, it was also funny to learn that several things were quite out-of-date (Feder vs Kuli I think was one).
(You do not in fact, go to bed.)
In a couple years you’ll be able to read German fluently… Without knowing how to speak it.
