Hi guys,
Please check "I didn't feel sleepy yesterday" or "I feel sleepy everyday". I know it is not acceptable to say "I feel sleepy".

According to it, 'I feel drowsy' should also be correct.
Not a teacher.
But not exclusively.'Drowsy' is the word used when you read the instructions for taking drugs e.g. cough syrups.
(EStjarn, WR forums)Drowsy carries (I don't dare say always) the implication that something is making you feel sleepy. It could be, for example, a drug, soft music, the sound of rain against the window, a monotonous ride. Whenever you don't feel the need to imply that something is making you feel sleepy, then plain sleepy is the one to choose.Sleepy can always substitute for drowsy, but the opposite is not true. This means that sleepy is more common but less specific than drowsy.
