pooping makes me sleepy

Posted 01.19.2008 by Snapper (170)
Why is it that sometimes when I take a poop, I feel really sleepy afterwards? And I don't mean tired -- I mean lay-down-and-take-a-nap sleepy. I've noticed this happens when I take an exceptionally large poop or have to hold my dump for a while before I can get relief.

Now, I know what you are thinking: and no, I do not strain when I take a dump, thanks to discovering both my parents have diverticulosis when I was in high school. I average 20-30 grams of fiber a day, and have done so for the last ten years in an effort to try and stave off their condition. So I never need to strain; and if I did, I would probably shit out an internal organ since my colon is so good at removing anything and everything from my body. But could you give me some insight as to why I feel the need to fall asleep after birthing a big one?

Thanx,
Mudbutt


Dear Mudbutt,

I'm going to guess that you get sleepy after dropping a grande deux because you drop so much volume internally. Your blood pressure probably goes down a bit and your body just needs a bit of time to adjust.

Hope that answers your question!

Happy crappin',

I have never felt the urge to take a nap after I shit, however people near me often appear to be out cold.

I find the exact opposite. When I get up very early in the morning, if all I have to do is pee, I can most likely go right back to sleep. However, if I have to poop, that wakes me right up; no question of returning to bed after that.

I can relate to this.

When I have to take a big shit I am hyper, stressed out, and on edge.

After I drop a good load I am relaxed and calm.

I may not be so relaxed and calm that I want to take a nap, but if I get the urge to blow mud in the middle of the night I can't sleep or rest until I let go.

Sometimes I am wiped out after a leak. Well not just a leak a really venemous piss. Everyone says oh you have diabetes but when I get my sugar and stuff checked its normal GO FIGURE.

What was it that South Park's Eric Cartman said? "You know that feeling you get after taking a huge dump? Awesome!"

prarie doggin (1947) -- 01.19.2008

Didn't the good witch tell Dorothy "poopies, poopies will make you sleep"

prarie doggin (1947) -- 01.20.2008

Well ding dong da dairy oh, it was the wicked witch. I sit corrected.

I don't know. It seems that the guys that always talk about having a big dick are quite small in reality.

It is the same theory with these clowns that drive these huge pickup trucks with the monster tires. Usually the guy that drives the truck is 5 foot 2. And probably has a little dick.

Bilgepump (1640) -- 01.20.2008

Its a fucking joke, Doniker, for christ sake!!!

Some of us have to drive those huge pickups just to haul our hogleg around. Don't hate on my one-ton.

Snapper, if your anything like me then its probably the elevated methane levels making you sleepy and light-headed.

doniker (1535) -- 01.20.2008

what you said may be a joke, Bilge.

but my comment was the truth.

Bilgepump (1640) -- 01.20.2008

yeah, ok...try analyzing your belly button lint, or something more productive....jeezuz.

To explain it in scientific terms, the bacterial mites that inhabit your colon jump into the poop as you plunge it down the canal.

Those mites contain "corbo-mite", a toxic morass of fungi that sap energy modules out of your ass hole. Kinda like klingons throwing themselves in the flux capacitor to protect "Khan" force energy.

It depends on the pooping session's contents. If it's a solid slider that exits easily and effortlessly, then I'm energized and ready to conquer the world. If it's a bowl blasting, hot lava which is propelled by gut heaves, then I need a little rest.
