Post Tantrum Sleep	comment	Throwing a tantrum for whatever reason sure can take a lot out of you. After all, your body will need some way to regain all the energy spent on anger and tears, so don't be surprised if you somehow end up feeling drowsy and/or wanting to fall asleep. That's why toddlers are often put down for a nap after they're done with all the kicking and screaming. This trope happening is obviously more commonly seen in younger characters, though it can happen to (childish) adults as well. It's often used to imply a character's anger is temporary, and they just needed to sleep it off. Narratively, it also helps that their emotional tantrum can be immediately juxtaposed with them being peacefully asleep shortly thereafter (sometimes it can be justified if they were angry because of Sleep Deprivation). Compare Fell Asleep Crying, when a character literally cries themself to sleep.

Post Tantrum Sleep / int_227431b6	comment	This has occurred in two different Runaways stories, both of them written by Kathryn Immonen: In "Homeschooling", Klara's chloropathy powers go haywire after she is injured in an accident. During this time, her plants inform her that the house is about to be invaded, and she tries to warn her friends, but they assume that she's delusional and refuse to listen to her. Unable to get them to listen, she throws a tantrum and ends up being magically tranquilized by Nico, at which point she falls into a deep sleep. In "It's Not Lupus", Nico accidentally casts a spell on Molly that causes her to throw a superpowered tantrum. When the spell finally wears off, Molly very quickly falls asleep.

Post Tantrum Sleep / int_2a3d5aca	comment	Classic Singapore Horror Stories: In one of the featured stories, Stepchild, protagonist Katherine ends up going to bed upset because of her 13th Birthday being ruined by the titular stepchild inexplicably deciding to show off his piano-playing skills even though she is supposed to perform in front of guests. The fact that her dad, rather than consoling her, instead tells Katherine, "Aren't you a bit too old to be playing Three Blind Mice?" doesn't help. Although said stepchild decides to apologize to her before she goes to sleep and give her a small present to make up for being a showoff.

When he lashes out at Piggie, this makes her cranky too, so Gerald jokes, "Maybe you need a nap." Piggie angrily shouts, "Maybe I DO need a nap!" and then falls asleep.

Aang is calmed down by Katara, and he immediately falls unconscious into her arms. Overlaps with Fell Asleep Crying.

Post Tantrum Sleep / int_746814ae	comment	Arthur: Defied in "Mei Lin Takes a Stand", in which one-year-old Mei Lin Barnes complains (in Baby Language) that so few characters in her show are babies. When she starts getting angry about it, Pal the dog suggests that she needs a nap. However, she then gets angry at him, as she thinks that the assumption that a baby being angry automatically means tiredness is a stereotype.

After Summer Penguin manages to calm Animal down and get him back to his normal self, the episode ends with quiet time being over and Nanny giving Animal his drumsticks back. Animal beats his drums once, then falls asleep.

He resonated with a character collapsing with emotion in a movie because he had done it once himself, after being kicked out from camp. As soon as he got away from people being upset at him, he remembers passing out from the sheer emotion of the day.
