Re: Can\'t sleep after heavy drinking
[ QUOTE ]
You dont get a good sleep when drunk because alcohol messes with your REM cycle during sleep, which is when your body really gets its rest. even if you sleep for 9 hours after drinking, you still wake up tired because you werent rested because of lack of REM

this makes sense. i always figured that it was because my body was metabolizing all the alcohol and carbs in beer into sugar and it was preventing me from resting or something. i definitely noticed that if i get drunk and don't go to bed right away, but stop drinking, it tends to make it hard for me to go to sleep.
