Never had insomnia in my life, my oneitis rejected me and now I occasionally cry lying in bed and can't sleep. What do?

I just decided to try and turn my heartache into hate and self loathing and focus on studying and fitness. Don't think it will help but fuck me if I'm gonna give up and do nothing.

have the ocassional glass of red whine before bed. make sure you got good exercise during the day (etiher lifting or cardio not 'well i went for a walk'). listen to an audio play, audio book, creepy pasta narration, or sleep hypnosis video before bed. maybe a TV show like a sitcom if its calm enough (i find that 70s show is good to fall asleep to but not scrubs).
once a week feel free to take a melatonin. dont use prescription sleep aids or anything like nyquil

Already am training, nearly everyday. It's emotional pain that keeps me awake, can't get her out of my head.

>its emotional pain that keeps me awake
yeah, i got that, but exhausting other facets of yourself can overcome that.
>cant get her out of my head
which is why i suggested listening to something before bed. its the oldest trick in the book. its the reason we read our kids stories before bed. it distracts your brain from whats actually going on in the waking world and focuses on a written 'dream' if you will. its the easiest way to transition into sleep.
on top of that listening to a story forces you to think of that story as opposed to your gf. sleep hypnosis is similar.

>your gf
She isn't, that's the source of everything. Anyways, thanks, will go running in the night and then read until I'm sleepy.
