Bad break up?

So sorry you are having a hard time. I have been there, so I know exactly how you feel. Benadryl and valerian root tea usually do the trick for me. Or smoking a bowl.

wine?

sorry that happened to you.. I know you don't want to hear it.. but time will help.. ;( its still fresh which is super hard.

good luck

So so sorry about that.

You can try melatonin. Natural supplement tricks your body into thinking it wants to sleep. Don't know if it's strong enough for what you're going through, though.

Other than that, I'd try relaxation and/or meditation. Sounds like hippie crap, but sometimes actually works.

So sorry honey. You will get over this. It is hard but it will get better. No alcohol, that is just empty calories. And with drinking of alcohol you are just taking your emotions and hiding them. Its is best to deal with them without the clouded mind of alcohol. The supplements, up there, are a great idea and buy some lavender bath salts and spray. Take a bath in the salts and spray your pillow. Chamomile tea helps a lot too. This is all to relax yourself so hopefully the sleep will get better. Then if you want the sleep aid use it just before you lay down. NEVER MIX the Sleeping aid with the Alcohol. These kinds of break ups can feel much like a death of a loved one. Again I am truly sorry for your pain.

sorry about the break up theres a sleepy time tea you can get

How tragic!! But don't be frustrate. I also suffered from this problem because of my breakup with my girlfriend. But after some time I urged myself. According to me you should try be busy in something such as listening music, with friend that would give better advice walking and so on.

i had the same problem a few yrs ago i found leaving the t.v on helped alot, i just needed the noise i guess

Take the hurt to the gym

This motivated me through my first month of going to the gym until I became accustomed to it.

Other than that, I'd try relaxation and/or meditation. Sounds like hippie crap, but sometimes actually works.

So sorry you're going through this. I hope you come out of it a stronger person.

Here's a relaxation exercise that really works to make you fall asleep. An elderly friend told me about it. He said when he was a student at the London School of Economics during WWII and London was being bombed by the Germans, he would do this exercise to fall asleep. I've gone through it a number of times and it knocked me out, too.

Lie in bed on your back. Put your arms flat down at your side.
Start with your feet and work your way up to your head. I like to think of this as wringing tension out of my body the way you would wring water from a towel.
Make your left foot as tense as possible and lift a few inches off the bed. Count ten breaths, inhaling and exhaling, Then drop your foot like a bag of cement.
Do the same thing with the right foot, tense it, lift a few inches, count ten breaths, and drop it.
Work your way up your body one limb at a time: one foot, then the other, then each leg, butt, torso, arms, shoulders, face and scalp.

Have you tried masterbating?? It helps me sleep when I am alone.......LOL

I'm just out of one after almost 2 and a half years, not much banter! One thing that always helps me sleep is watching ASMR videos Although I don't get it myself, they are always really relaxing and I nod off quickly.

I love these too but you have to find the right one for you because otherwise some do seem rather odd. Just take a deep breath and let yourself relax while watching/listening. Just google it.

I became conscious while watching a video with someone calling me a pizza, I was like wtf haha!
