Me and my boyfriend just broke up a few hours ago and it wasn’t a rough one but it did have a not so great lead up to her but it was a good breakup but it hurt like hell so now I have no clue how to sleep, if you could, could you spare some tips on how to sleep after a breakup or just really how to relax after break up cuz I need to sleep but I just can’t.
So how does one sleep after a break up?

Need to find an outlet and a distraction
Not sleeping after a breakup feels brutal but staying awake only deepens the hurt. Breathe deep and embrace the silence because healing starts when you face the quiet.
Sleep after a breakup feels impossible because your heart is wide awake screaming into the silence. Let yourself cry breathe slow and wrap your body in calm until your mind finally follows.
Definitely find a distraction. Go on social media, read a book, beat your meat if you have to, but do something to get your mind off him and get some rest!! Try to sleep as soon as you can as staying awake will only hurt.
Quite nicely.
I always take a long soak in a hot bath.
Exercise during the day. If you don’t, sleeping pills.
I usually get super drunk and black out, but doesn’t help the next morning when I remember why I drank and I feel extra horrible.
Thanks everyone! I’m gonna make myself some good grub buy a game I was looking forward to buying but wasn’t gonna get because I was saving money for a date for me and him. Im also probably gonna just call my friends for comfort. Again thank you all!
I usually get drunk and forget about it lol
