Answer 1

Hi, I'm almost seventeen years old; don't judge me.

I can honestly say that I just had a similar circumstance to yours two or three weeks ago. However, I was the inverse, in terms that I could never go to sleep!!!! I had an issue with my long term Ex-Boyfriend and I know how you feel. We were together for over a year and I found out that he was using me for physical things. I still love him so much and that broke my heart so much. Then, for a whole month our communication was poor and I was heart broken. We are still on speaking terms, but before then I couldn't go to bed because my emotions kept me up all night.

I do believe that you have a similar situation like I had two or three weeks ago. I believe that your emotions and your rest are interconnected. Your emotions and your heart is hurting, so that's why your body doesn't see the need to get up because you are heart broken. I am so sorry that you are going through this and I know how you feel.

It wasn't easier for myself as well and I can't tell you that you should get over it and you shouldn't feel that way. It's not as easy people think when they go through a sever with the one that they love. It took me about two weeks to get out of my "pretend insomnia issue." All I can tell you that it will past and the hurt in your heart will mend. I am truly sorry to hear what you are going through. Your body did get enough rest, however it doesn't want to wake up or it feels that you should go back to bed because you are still hurting.

The best thing to do is honestly wait for your heart to connect and you deserve all the best. Try your best to be occupied with people who care about you and that might help you get through this a little bit easier. I wish you all the best and it will past; you're not alone in this.

Best Of Luck Always!!

Answer 2

Yes. You are having situational depression. You should feel better and more alert as time passes and you start to heal. good luck.

Answer 3

You are depressed..get a new boy-friend.  Get out and party with your friends, socialize and forget about him. Start a new life that doesn't include even thoughts of him...HUGS!!

Answer 4

yes it seems that you're not over it yet...it's normal, two weeks is not a long time and if the ex- bf meant a lot to you then it will take you much longer than two weeks to get over him. Do some exercise, listen to your fave music, talk it out with a friend.  take care of yourself.

Answer 5

yes depression makes you probably lay awake late at night and you feel emotionally drained.. You have to move on.. I know this hurts..but life does go on.. Most of us have been through this and it seems like the end of the world right now.. but hearts don't really break.. yours is bruised right now.. think about yourself now..  and believe in yourself..  Relationships do end sometimes... that doesn't mean you are a failure.. it only means that he was not the right guy for you for a long term relationship.. you need to get some good rest  at night and stay active during the day.. do something that distracts you from feeling depressed and meet some friends.. and sometime when you are over it you will meet someone new.. and it will last because it's meant to be!
