I'm the opposite, most of the time sex makes me drowsy. Though sometimes it has served as a mind-clearing respite that enables me to approach my work with new vigor. I usually appreciate these times.

Though my current pain reliever keeps me incredibly alert if I take it at night. It is nice at first to have that boost of clarity along with an absence of pain, but sometimes I just plain want sleep. I usually write a page or so of whatever is on my mind and try to go to sleep. I slow down my breathing to as slow as possible. It's like a game to see how slowly I can breathe. Between that and surrounding myself with cushy pillows and cuddling with my warm hubby, I usually can get myself to fall asleep.


Sorry I can't offer any monumental words of wisdom.
