What exactly did it make you feel like? What side effects did you have? Did it make you more C? Since it is suppose to relax the body, I'm afraid it is relaxing my bowels to, prohibiting me from going and increasing the constipation, and therefore, the pain, gas, and bloat that go along with it. 
I am just like you...feel "wired" all the time and cannot get a decent night's sleep. I never feel rested. Wide awake hours before I need to be and this always makes my C worse. The best thing to help me "go" and have a BM is sleeping until 9 am! A good 10 hours of sleep!
Do you take any meds? I take Klonopin and Valerian at night, but worry that both may be increasing the Constipation and neither seems to be working lately. They used to work for sleep...but recently stopped.
I am at the end of my tether! (A saying I picked up from my Aussie friend Amy)!
