    How much sleep should someone be getting? Female, 27 years old, very active.

    I am constantly tired. By noon, I am going downhill. By two, I barely have energy to go up and down the stairs.

    I get about 6 1/2 hours of sleep, Sun - Thurs, and about 10 - 12 hours Fri and Sat.

    How much sleep a person does best with will vary. Personally, I feel miserable if I sleep for more than 8 hours. I aim for 7 to 8 hours a night. However, feeling tired all the time can be cause by things other than lack of sleep, such as vitamin and mineral deficiencies, depression, and adrenal fatigue. It would probably be a good idea to discuss this with your doctor, in case it's more that just needing more sleep.
