Can regular exercise make us not so sleepy during the afternoon, I always felt sleepy after school. Help?

Answer 1

Maybe it would help if you did not pleasure yourself after school everyday.

Answer 2

Do you get sleepy right after lunch? or maybe an hour or two later? You may want to consider food allergies, esp if you have problems with major acne.

Exercise will help some with waking you back up, but if you're sleepy from an allergic reaction, when you're done exercising you'll feel even more like having naptime.

Try taking a 20 minute power nap.
