Sleepless Nights: The Aftermath of a Painful Breakup
Post-breakup insomnia, also known as sleep disturbances after the end of a relationship, is a common phenomenon triggered by the stress of a breakup. Sleep is a vulnerable state, and the absence of a bed partner can increase feelings of vulnerability and disrupt sleep patterns. While some people sleep better with a partner, others may experience more disruptions. Dealing with post-breakup insomnia involves self-exploration, trying new sleep routines, practicing relaxation techniques, and building social connections during the day. It's important to remember that experiencing insomnia after a breakup is normal, and with time and self-care, sleep patterns can be restored.
