Taurine has shown to be energizing for me bc when i took it at night i couldn't sleep the whole night. if i take in afternoon will i sleep at night?

Most likely: That is an unusual response. Taurine is calming to most, in fact it is included in many natural sleep aids. If you take it in the afternoon any stimulating effect will likely dissipate by bedtime, but the only way you will know for sure is to try it. To be extra safe try it in the early afternoon. See http://www.lifeextension.com/magazine/2015/9/grow-new-brain-cells/page-01 for more on taurine.
