Do You Get As Much Sleep As You Should?

Once I had to pull an all-nighter for the activities that my organization had to do, so I went for almost 48 hours straight without sleeping. The side-effect of that was getting sick for two weeks, plus napping for at least 2 hours everyday in the week followed.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Usually during the week (during school), I go to bed at 1am and wake up at 6am. It always catches up too me on the weekends so I sleep in till 1 or 2 in the afternoon.

Well, sometimes I get enough sleep, but usually I don't get enough sleep, especially on school nights. School nights, the usual maximum amount of sleep that I get is 7 hours. But, most of the time, I get about 5 to 6 hours of sleep on school nights, and of course, as everyone probably is quite familiar with, the all-nighters that I have pulled for homework assignments, meaning I definitely don't get enough sleep. However, on weekends, I usually at least manage to scavenge about 9 hours of sleep.

I was speaking idiomatically.

haha... that would be a no... 5 hrs a night if im lucky...which isnt horrible, but i kno its not enough... from school... crafting... (Trituration!~.^) and a girlfriend... no sleep is expected... lol

6-7 hours on average, depends on assignments and stuff as well since finals are approaching

FELIPE NO

I always try to get a few hours of sleep. Even during finals time, when I should be studying, I just have to sleep because I always hit that wall where I can't even concentrate. It refreshes my brain.

When academics aren't concerned, I usually can go without sleep for about a day. But I turn into a zombie and feels like I'm dreaming, even though I'm awake. Bottom line is, I need sleep every day,even though it may be just for a couple hours.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

recently i've been getting 9-11 hours of sleep, WAY too much. There's the perfect amount for people my age and that's 8 hours. I've been oversleep so I feel tired the whole day.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I thought I posted here already.


Well, considering how it's 12:53 a.m. now, I think I'm not getting enough sleep. I usually sleep at 1 a.m. or 2 a.m. but in order to make up for that, I sleep till noon usually. 8 hours should cut it, but 10 would probably be healthier.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I feel worse when I oversleep than when I sleep too little. When's school's in I usually have the biggest case of sleep deprivation since I usually went to bed at around 12-1AM and got up at 6-7AM. [depending on whether or not I had a before-school class] It was fucking hell because it is ALWAYS hard for me to get up in the morning, no matter how much sleep I get.

Now it's summer, and in the past summers I'd always go to bed at liek 4AM and get up at ridiculous times like 1PM and shit, but that's just horrible so I'm trying to make an effort at fixing my sleep schedule. Right now it's 1AM, and I'll probably go to bed in an hour but I have to get up at 8AM for work tomorrow. That's 6 hours, I can function pretty normally on 6 hours though.

Ideally, I'd sleep at 2AM and get up at 10AM. That's ideal. Anything later and I hate myself for it.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I always get anywhere between six and eight hours. My problem is sometimes I´ll get six between 2am and 8am, and sometimes eight between 10pm and 6am. The amount isn´t the problem, just my lack of letting my body get used to a regular schedule. Last night I walked my niece to her grandmother´s and shit like that tends to set you back.

I dont go into work until 2:00 now, so I get more sleep then I should. If I worked a normal 9-5 I would proably only get about 4 hours.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I think there was a thread like this before.

Anyway, I'm quite sure I get enough sleep. I go to bed around 9:30pm every night (10:30 or 11:00 on weekends) and I wake up at 6:00am (usually 8:00 or 9:00 on weekends). So what is that, like 8 or 9 hours?

Sleep is pretty much the best thing in the world, if you ask me.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

3 to 4 hrs for me :S due to my ambition. Do think it abit sad dol :S so less sleep life crap for me :O

FELIPE NO

Now that I'm on summer vacation, it's anywhere from 12-14 hours. I actually wish I could curb it down so that by the time I wake up most of the morning isn't already gone.

I wonder what it's like for i-banking analysts. Regularly working 16-24 hour days, even on weekends, must be brutal.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Now that it is summer, up to 12 hours if I feel like it, although normally it would be more around 8.

Otherwise I'd be lucky to get 7 hours in on non-leisure days.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Depends on when I work, but I can usually get a solid 6 hours if I'm working in the morning, and 8-9 if I work in the afternoon.

Hey, I haven't slept for 20 years because that would be too long. =(

Seriously, during this summer when I have been lazy to get up and jog I would get nearer 10 hours sleep. During the University period however, I would be lucky to get in 8 hours. In my mindset if I don't get around 10 hours sleep I could find myself tired, particularly when I am in University. When I return home I usually fall asleep because I am too tired. So yes I definitely get enough sleep during the summer, and often enough during University time.

How ya doing, buddy?

I suffer insomnia, so I get to sleep 3 hours per night. In the past 3 days I've slept around 4 hours. The thing is, somedays I come home early and I get sleepy... and those are the days where I sleep around 6 hours. It's not too often, but it happens.

Lately I've found a way of sleeping more (I was beginning to get way too tired). I sleep for 1 hour, then wake up (alarm). Eat something and then go again and sleep another hour. This way I've been able to sleep around 7 hours a night (which is like a record to me).

Anyway... sleeping is for the weak. ^^

I'm starting to get more sleep than I originally had being in school and all. Now, I go to bed anywhere between 12:30am and 2am, which is much better than the 3am and 4am I was doing all the time.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Since I'm inbetween jobs, I'm staying up later than normal, so my schedule's a little out of sync... But normally I sleep somewhere around midnight - 6 A.M. Supposedly 6-7 hours of sleep is a good amount (Though you growing kids out there need more), so I just go with 6'ish.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

About six hours a night I guess. Except weekends, they're a mystery grab bag of sleeping time! I really should get more sleep whenever I have class the next day though, because there's like forty minutes of walking involved to get there and I'll pretty much be shuffling along like a zombie with broken rollerskates.

How ya doing, buddy?

As of late I've been getting somewhere near < 6 hours a night, as my friend put it ''feeling like I've been started up in safe mode''.

Just havent had the same ammount of energy in days -,-.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

On weekdays, i go to bed around 2300 and wake up around 0700. so that's 8 ours, exactly what a persoon needs. although i am really sleeping around 2400. But i can get some extra at school :-P

Jam it back in, in the dark.

It jumps around depending on schedule and previous night's sleep. For instance, I slept fourteen hours yesterday. I've now been up for almost 24 hours, meaning I'll get little to no sleep tonight. My sleep cycle has been pretty messed up since I quit my job.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Well, I try to get 8 hours minimum. I have to get up at 8 in the morning to get ready for school but I try to get to bed for 11pm. On most wednesdays and saturdays I can sleep for about 10 hours on average. Even if I get my minimum of 8 hours I'm still pretty fucking knackered. If I get less than that I just shut down.
