Seeking advice from fellow menstruators

The week of my period absolutely obliterates me. I am working full time and studying when not working. Which is working fine for me, except the first couple of days of my period. My periods are heavy, so I have been to the doctor and got some meds to help with that. Is there any advice anyone can give for getting at least some studying done after work, the first few days of my period?

It's not working

LDR of over 2 years. He broke up with me, I initiated no contact. He came crawling back a month later, I took him back. Six months down the line he dumped me again. I again initiated no contact. When a month hit recently, and he didn't message me this time, it's like my brain grasped it is really over. I had been doing okay for a while, but I've cried every day this week. I don't even want the relationship back. I just wanted to feel loved and I don't. I feel sad and not good enough. I've been trying to focus on myself by taking up new hobbies, and I've also started studying again. But this spell of crying daily over him has sapped all my energy to do things and all the enjoyment out of things. I don't feel I can open up to my friends and family about all this, because I already did this six months ago over the same guy and I don't want to drive them nuts. Sorry for the wall of text. I don't even know what I hope to get out of this. I just needed to talk :(
