There is a short period after the tiredness gets too much where I become totally silly get loads of energy and become difficult to handle...like a child! Many people have noticed this in me. Id love to know why it happens.

I know lol, think it has to do with the body putting in every last bit of energy in you to keep you going until you either go to bed or crash on the floor lol.

I'd hypothesize that the reasoning is because your brain is tired. The frontal lobe is responsible for making wise "executive decisions"; behaving properly and following orders properly falls into this category. As a result, the frontal lobe isn't as active when overly-tired, and one's behavior quickly changes. Acting silly and emotional, poor decisions are made in result.
