[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 187167, member: 3444"] What I understand about the body when we we are raging is that there is a huge amount of cortisol being released as part of the "flight or fight" response. This causes our liver to dump glucose/glycogen into the bloodstream so that our muscles have quick acess to energy. Once the glucose has been used up, we crash. Think of it as the intense sugar high of a candy bar that eventually leaves us feeling depeleted and worse than before we ate it. Maybe that's why he's sleeping? But then, I'm not a doctor :) [/QUOTE]
