    I find that I get dozy for anywhere between 5 and 30 minutes afterwards, and then wake up and find myself wide awake. And the sleepiness can affect girls too, although it's less predictable. Depends on how energetic you were I guess.

    Yeah I agree on the yoga. SO basically have tantric sex and you will sleep like a baby.

    Waking up every 2 hours in your own urine and excrement and vomit.

Sex as has been mentioned is usually good for sleepless nights, I think for male and females too, women seriously get cranky and restless if they haven't got some right?
    I had been doing a class similar to yoga (flex and tone) but didnt sleep much better after it. Must dig out some meditation cds and give them a spin.

    Sex is great but I am just a greedy 'ho who doesnt want it to end!

    There's a chemical released when guys orgasm. The ladies are not blessed with this chemical.

    Interestingly, far more of it is released after sex with a person than after killing kittens - about four times as much, I think.

    I can see why you'd have difficulty nodding off alright, worrying about the knock on the door.

    Sex with girls!, must be your conscience

    I tried my hardest last nite to get a good sleep. I tried to remove all stress, got a can of cider out of the fridge, went to bed and watched tv (I often find myself falling asleep in sitting room in front of tv and then when get up and get ready for bed am wide awake again) and was all snuggled down and dozing off when a "friend" text me. That was fine, text him for a while and fell asleep easily enough. Then another "friend" text me at almost half 12 and woke me. God I hate my friends.

    Had another broken night's sleep then. Grrrrr

    I read yesterday that brazil nuts and almonds can help as often people who cant sleep are lacking in Calcium and cant remember what other thing is coz am too tired.

    That would depend on whether or not you understood the euphamism. If you took it literally, it would be a very weird sentence.

    I throw mine in a bucket of water every night, and unwrap a fresh one every morning. They'll never track me down, ha ha!
