How Much Sleep Do You Need A Night?

[HeHasRisen]

Interesting question. Some people clearly are lazy and stay in bed for ages, but some of us, like myself, like to be up with the lark.

 

6 hours usually suffices for me, how about the rest of you?

I need all the sleep I can get. I'm old.

I try to get between 7 and 8 hours sleep per night. Anything less I'm hopeless the next day.

Go to bed around 10pm.  Up at around 2am

My routine is odd, but works for me.

 

in bed usually by 8, then up at 2 looking for coffee! Do a little work on business email and here til 4 then back to bed for another hour or so then breakfast 

 

Do my socializing at around noon til 4 then dinner!

 

listen to your body, don’t follow the government “guidelines” and their “one size fits all” advice!

 

They really don’t care about you, personally.

 

How could they?!

I never go to bed before  2:30  /  3:00 am  ........   and I'm usually up at  8:30  /  9:00am.      So 6 hours for me.

I am an insomniac. It's my main issue in life and it creates a massive problem for me, especially with work and my personal life.

 

I've tried everything, but I've just now accepted that it's something I have to deal with

 

I have on average about 4-5 hours sleep per night. 

Once my head hits my pillow, I start worrying about work, money, health and dying.

 

I hate it.

I feel your pain on that.

I've been sleeping better recently but I still do worry an awful lot about some things.

It's horrendous mate.

 

I actually believe that lack of sleep will finish me off.

 

I look forward to going to bed, like now, I can't wait to lock up and take my cat and hot water bottle to bed, but once I am tucked up, I get restless and anxious.

 

Most nights I get off but usually wake up around 2-3am, then that's me done, can't get back to sleep.

 

Feel like crap all day.....and repeat.

 

Absolutely hate it.
