How much sleep do you need realistically?
A full 8 hours?
Or can you get by on short naps. I'm the latter, a bit cat like lol. It's rare I sleep more than 3 to 4 hours at a time, it's been years on end since I slept properly, occasionally I manage 6 or more but it's unusual. You? |
I have about 12 a night, my meds make me exhausted
|
I range all over the place tbh.
On average it's between 5-7 hours. |
I need 8 hours plus, in fact the more sleep the better

I'd say 6 hours is about right for me

I think most people sleep a few hours, wake briefly, turn over and go back to sleep, its rare to do hours straight
|
Yea I wake up at least twice for the loo :bored:

I have slept in 2 hour chunks since I was a baby ( had to be fed every two hours through the night..they said I probably had a small stomach but I think I was just lactose intolerant)
Anyways it beggared up my sleep pattern forever I reckon I get between 4 and 6 hours each night Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
The best thing for sleep is regularity of time. Go to bed at the same time, wake up at the same time, avoid "naps" and don't drink any caffeine after 5pm.

I get between 5-6 hours a night. Having my son messed me up. He was always up at 5am no matter what time I put him down which was fine when he was tiny as he went to bed at like 6pm- 7pm and I would go up around 9ish but now he sleeps like a teenager and I ping awake at 5 - 5.30am every day and cannot get back to sleep and I don't want to go to bed at 9pm so get around 5-6 hours. Its fine though as I'm not overly tired but would love a lie in once in a while.

I am a morning person, so I usually go to bed around 9:30-10 and am up at about 5am playing Scrandle and drinking coffee. :laugh:
|
you need 4 hours of whats defined as core sleep for your body to recover, so probably 6 hours is a comfortable minimum

Adults who sleep less than 7 hours a night may have more health issues than those who sleep 7 or more hours a night. Sleeping more than 9 hours a night is not necessarily harmful and may be helpful for young adults, people who are recovering from sleep deprivation, and people who are sick. https://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/sle...rs%20a%20night. |
