VIDEO: Falling asleep when you are lovesick

Lovesickness is just terrible! No matter what you try to distract yourself with, somehow you always think of the lost one love. During the day it is often easier to distract yourself or to do things that change your mind. In the evening, and especially before going to sleep, this is difficult.

Falling asleep with lovesickness - this is how it works

• The top priority: your bed is only there to sleep and not to ponder! Don't even get used to thinking about your lovesickness in bed! If this becomes a habit, sooner or later you will tend to think through your worries before going to sleep, even after you have overcome lovelorns. This is a vicious circle and affects your sleep rhythm.
• Another thing to avoid is nap time. In phases of acute grief you often feel exhausted, tired and drained, even during the day. Even if it's difficult, don't give in to the impulse to take a nap.

How to distract yourself from lovesickness

• With lovesickness, thoughts revolve around the same thing over and over again: Why is it over? It was a terrible state. Your thoughts are full of memories, open questions, and things that you may not have been able to express. Before you go to bed, sit down at a table and write down everything that is in your head. You put all questions, moods and emotions on paper just as they come to mind. It doesn't have to be neatly written down, just write down everything that is in you. Then fold the paper in half and tell yourself that your thoughts are now all on Have brought paper that they will not run away and that you will think about it again tomorrow by day can.

• Then make yourself a cup of tea or a hot water bottle and go to bed. Whenever thoughts arise, tell yourself that you have put them on paper and don't think about them until the next day.
