On average how many hours sleep do you have a night/day?

What is your preffered and what is too much?


Me, if I don't get my 8 hours, 7 minimum, then I'm grumpy and feel like shit the whole day.
I'm not a morning person either.

In saying that anything more than 10 and I wake up with a ****ed back. Used to be a able to sleep for half a day, can't do that anymore

During the week I average 5 - 6 hours per night.

On the weekends I can do 10.

I was recently working two full time jobs which left me about 4 hours to sleep regularly for about 1 year. I had to give it up but the lasting effect of working such long hours is that my brain wakes me up after 5 hours sleep regardless of if i'm tired. Sometimes on the weekend i can snack and go back to sleep for another 5 hours though. I don't really get enough sleep.

The other week when away I was getting about 3 hrs sleep a night.

I normally get to bed around 2am, and get up at 8:30am. I'm not one to sleep in normally, but if I have too little sleep I'll just zonk out and sleep through any alarm.

I have a three alarm system for just such occasions. first two are my phone right next to me, the third is across the room and impervious to damage from thrown objects.

Depends on my morning prayer time. I go to bed between 10.30 & 11.00. Morning prayer can be from 4ish in summer to around 5.30 in winter (this is the time of year now).

But due to Ramadan, have been getting up at 4.30 so currently managing between 5 - 6 hours a night.

I will get about 9 on Sunday.

Btw read an article recently that said its not the length of time you sleep but rather ensuring you wake up at the end of your sleep cycle which they say goes for between 80 - 90mins. I have to agree. If alarm goes off during deep slumber then doesn't matter if you have had 10 hours sleep, you will be bummed.

If I were to score my sleeping routine over the last 20 years out of 0-100 (0 being bad, 100 being perfect) ... it'd get about an "11".

I grab what I can get, when I can get it.

Usually I get between 6-7hrs, but of late only 3-4hrs. Such a cranky f*ck of late, so over not sleeping, even using some help doesn't do nothing. And worst of all I have that god damn restless legs sh*t, so I get even less sleep cause it drives me crazy. Need a mallet maybe that'll help.

I aim to get 7-8 hours a night. But I have serious problems getting to sleep early. On the weekend, I work nights as a bouncer, so I often get to bed at around 5am-6am the following morning after closing up and doing the cleanup etc. But during the week I have uni and most days I start at about 8am or 9am. So I have to either wake up with minimal sleep on Sunday to ensure I'll be tired to get to sleep at night to be up early on Monday, or I have to lie in bed for hours on Sunday trying to fall asleep, failing, and then being exhausted come Monday and generally skipping my 8am Law lecture.

Today I purposely slept in till 12pm because I'm going to be up till around 4-5am Saturday morning with work, and then I'll get home, sleep 5 hours and then have to be up by 10am as I have a powerlifting competition tomorrow.
