How much sleep do you get?

And how often do you get it?

I live on the west coast US and I know I am a world away from many people on this site. I see posts at all hours and wonder, does anyone sleep?

I lay down in plenty of time to get of sleep 7-8 hours, but I can't get my brain to shut down, so it's usually more like 5-6.

I usually sleep 6-7 hours but prefer to sleep 8-9 hours when I can.

Always been a good sleeper...well until the last few months anyway. Funny how I usually get up within 10 minutes of 9:34a which was when I was born.

I have issues sleeping. I find it's better for me to get either 6 or 10 hours. Anything in between sucks

My sleep has always been all over the place. I usually seem to sleep in shifts. It would be nice to have a regular schedule.

Not enough I get about 4 or 5 hours.

Have you ever heard the phrase "I will get sleep when I die" I think most of my life my body and mind have been riding that wave.

I push the envelope way too often between this site, FB, my books, crafts, and kitties. I was doing good for a while, but then this site became my addiction. And then there is my insomnia. Once in a while I will get 8 hours or more. Ain't gonna happen tonight. Ah heck, I can sleep when I'm dead, which may be sooner than later....

Not enough

I recently found out I have sleep apnea, eventhough I'm fairly thin, lots of folks have it too without knowing it, if you wake up to urinate during the night, please get checked for apnea.

Not nearly enough. 6 - 7 hours but it's "segmented sleep": 2 or 3 hours, then wake up for a hour or so, then back to sleep for a few more hours. Difficult when you have a full time job!

Planning to retire in a year or two and can't wait

I'm east coast. Stay up late and get up early. 3 hours is my usual.

Voted 4 to 6 hours, but there are times when I have to get a nap during the day when I get stressed for lack of sleep or am feeling a bit sick. Said naps will last between 1 and 3 hours, depending....

Never feels like enough when the bed is too comfortable. The winter layoff from work acts as a means for me to catch up on any sleep debt though, so I'll get more than enough sleep through the day. During work days, it's probably 6-7 given I gotta wake up pretty early and have a bad habit of going to bed at like midnight at the earliest.

I mostyl get enough, though past few nights dogs has been restless with the weather, and bloody chooks before the sun is up

I am Retired and with no boss of me... so I can get as much I want and when I want to for as long I want to.

Usually about 6-8 hours.

7 to 7 and a half hours typically sees me ready for what's ahead. If I've been working hard, it turns into 8.

Varies since retirement-my own schedule-

4 to 6 on a really good night.

0

Some days I sleep 20 hours some weeks I sleep 5 shitty hours

0

I need a minimum of 6, but never more than 8.

I suffer from a mild form of bipolar and its important that I get the right amount of sleep. Not too much and certainly not too little as it leaves me vulnerable to 'episodes'

It's entirely random and determined by my neurochemistry, which means I don't have a circadian rhythm, I have a circadian drum solo. Narcolepsy sucks.
