I took it once in the afternoon and I got really sleepy and slept for about 30 min and then got up and was fine. has anyone else have this happen tot hem? and if i took it at night does it mess with the difference to work.,sry if i just sounded crazy. but not sure how to put it. and I get little headache when i take it..is this normal?

Oh I hear you! Sometimes I take them and end up not going to bed when I think I will (like I'll read or play on the computer) and then I started to feel REALLY sick. I'm taking 2000mg so that's probably why it's so intense. How much are you taking now?

Headaches are normal.

I take mine before bed to reduce the side effects. It is still absorbed into your body no matter when you take it.
