Commentary states: The reason for excessive sleepiness due to Gallbladder Heat lies in the fact that the Gallbladder organ is inherently pure and clear, serving as the source of decision-making. Currently, both the Liver and Gallbladder present with Excess patterns, causing the circulation of Ying (Nutritive Qi) and Wei (Defensive Qi) to become obstructed and stagnant. Consequently, what was originally pure becomes turbid and disturbed, leading to mental confusion and drowsiness, resulting in a constant desire to sleep or lie down.
