How many hours of sleep do you get per night? How many SHOULD you get?

Me? I like a nice solid 14 but that only happens on Saturdays. I usually get about 5 - 6.
«134

    As much as I can! I figure the more I sleep, the less I have to deal with reality and the temptation to EAT! Honestly, I try to get at least 8 hours.

    It depends on your age but, personally, I find that 7-8 hours of sleep is plenty for me.
    I'm guessing one should sleep for about 7-9 hours in order to go through all cycles completely.

    Typically, I get 5-6 hours of sleep per night which is not enough.

    Depends on whether I have a migraine or not. Some nights I get no sleep, and sometimes I sleep for a couple days straight.

    14? I'm so so so so jealous! It really varies, but probably around 4-5 hours usually.

    It is pretty inconsistent. Frequently 2-3, usually 4-6, rarely 8-10.

    I would get about 8 hours a night, but I always wake up in the middle of the night, and then have trouble going back to sleep. It's very frustrating.

    Lately I feel like I can sleep for hours. I literally slept for 22hours yesterday. When I'm feeling normal at least 10-7hrs makes me feel happy. I usually get 6-4. Not a morning person!

    I hate when that happens. I always tried to find away to go back to sleep. Counting sheep... whatever doesn't work. But I just get up and do as many pullups and pushups until I can't do anymore. That usually knocks me out.

    I'm not a good sleeper. I need at about 9 to feel right. If I am only up once I consider it a GOOD night. Usually I try for 9 but end up getting about 7
  • Usually about 5 - 7 hours depending on the night....I do, however, really wish I could nap more.

    I am completely everywhere with how long I sleep, I think it is from 12 hour shift work. I go from 2-6 usually but when I get more than that I am still up about 4-5 times anyways.

    I have actually gone once with 10 minutes of sleep.

    FOURTEEN HOURS OF SLEEP?

    That only leaves you 10 hours in your day!

    About 7 on weekdays. Should get 8-9, but life is busy. Usually about 9-10 on weekends.

    I usually get into bed around 8 for an episode or two of Mad Men (or whatever the flavor of the month show is). Fall asleep by 10, up at 4:45ish without an alarm to make it to yoga by 5:45.

    I spent YEARS - truly - almost four full years never sleeping. I worked the overnight shift at the hospital and truly never adjusted.

    I cherish these nights more than I can ever articulate now. I feel like an entirely new person.

    I am fully functioning on 6, but anywhere between 6-8 is wonderful to me.
