How do you sleep?

Depends. I'll stay in bed anywhere from four hours to twelve hours. However, it takes me a long time to fall asleep, and I wake up plenty of times throughout the night, and it could take me up to thirty minutes to fall back asleep. So overall, I probably get between 3-9 hours of sleep depending on how long I'm in bed.
Edit: And as for position and such, I'm generally wearing light clothes and sleeping on my side. I generally go to sleep with a light comforter, but I have a tendency to throw it off while sleeping.

Pretty poorly.
As a general rule, if I can afford to sleep in I fall asleep shortly after my head hits the pillow. If I need to wake up early I will lie in bed restlessly for 2 or more hours before it finally comes. This happens regardless of what time I actually go to sleep. In fact, it's generally worse the later I go to sleep (up to a point). I am pretty sure this has to do with the fact that when I need to get up early, I am aware that I need to fall asleep soon to get a decent rest, and trying to fall asleep seems to be the least conducive state of mind to actually fall asleep in.

I get 4-5 hours per night, except on weekends. On weekends it's closer to 8-10. Been keeping that schedule for a decade or so now.
As far as quality, I sleep the sleep of the dead. Current gf got worried one night because she couldn't wake me, because she underestimated what it takes to rouse me. I need to switch alarms every couple of years as I become resistant to them.

Ive been getting a lot better, recently. Ive been going to sleep at around 10am-12am, and then waking up at some point around 8am or 9am.
If you had asked me this question a few weeks ago, I wouls have said I was going to sleep from around 2am-5am, and then waking up at around 11am-2pm, which was horrible.

10.5 hours of sleep per day (on average)
14.5 hours awake
If I lose minutes or hours of sleep, once it catches up with me, I end up napping several hours or remain exhausted and low energy until I do.
Sleep hours are "When I'm tired." and wake up "When I wake up."

I sleep nekked, with a body pillow, due to some lower back/hip pain if my knees pull together from gravity while sleeping. Usually sleep on my side, as on my back just isn't comfortable for me. My wife and I alternate spooning against each other as we toss and turn. I usually get about, 5-6 hours a night on average, waking up multiple times during that window due to pain or cats nuzzling my face for early morning pettin's.VG_Addict said:
If I'm lucky, I actually take effort to take a tylenol PM early enough to fall asleep and get 8ish hours, but that's rare.
My partner punted me out of bed the other night -_-Dreph said:
OT: Pretty badly, have a lot of trouble getting to sleep lately, once I'm there I sleep for a while but I don't get what I'd call good sleep, I don't wake up feeling good or rested.
Very poorly.
I average around 4 hours total of sleep within 9 hours of trying. I have a lot of trouble falling asleep, and when I do finally fall asleep I wake up frequently.
I mostly fall asleep while I'm on my side. That's the most comfortable position for me usually.
I'm always so damn tired.

I sleep with my Wii U on, my sleepphones on, and I'm listening to hypnotic audio before falling asleep in whichever position the cum rolling off my leg landed on directional-wise...
Other than that, I switch between my floor and my bed with one not being better than the other in the long run...

Honestly not enough if I have to be up in the morning. I stay up later than I should. Then on the weekends I sleep in a ton.
Average? Maybe 4-5 hours a night. Insomnia = unstable sleep schedule and napping because of exhaustion. I made an educated guess because sometimes its 8 hours, some 2 with random periods of unconsciousness in between.
I have a tendency to hit REM nearly immediately (polyphasic sleep) so I wonder if I've just trained myself to skip most of the useless parts of sleep.

On top of a pile of money, with many beautiful ladies.
I sleep fine, I suppose. I've started taking my laptop to bed and playing ASMR videos; they help me drop off faster. I stopped waking up in the middle of the night when I shut off my humidifier, so I guess the shitty water I put in it was choking me or something. I change the linens and vacuum the bed regularly, and that seems to help too.

Normally pretty well. I would get about 7 hours of sleep, and I would be fine with that.
As of late? About 5, if I'm lucky. So, not really the best at the moment. I'm typing this after having about four and a half hours of sleep for the past three days and working a shit load, and finished drinking cold brew. I'm so over caffeinated right now that I'm surprised that I can't see the matrix.

At my desk, in my office. Usually a couple hours after lunchtime.
Haha, I wish. I sleep ok I guess. Always reluctant but know I'll pay for it because I have to get up pretty early (before 6). But I'm always playing games or screwing around 'till after 11, which needs to stop. I get enough exercise though, maybe that's what helps me knock off. I usually try to read or watch a clip or something but I usually pass out during, which I can't complain about unless the tablet whacks me in the face.
I sleep on my stomach, with my hands under the pillow my head rests on. Which seems kinda rare, but I'm assuming I've been doing that since a baby considering the shape of my long-ish skull.

I believe in the cat theory of sleep. I need at least 8 hours of sleep every day.
And another 9 every night *ba dum tish*
Seriously though, I suffer from acid reflux, so half of my night is spent sleeping in a recliner to remain fairly upright. I switch back and forth between the chair and the bed, averaging about 2 hours at a strentch in one then waking up and going to the other.

I've got Fibromyalgia, so I rarely get a good nights sleep.
I get maybe 2-3 hours of sleep every night, unless I've taken sleeping pills.
I'm a light sleeper and toss and turn a lot, so coupling that with general pain makes sleeping quite hard.
Around the 4th or 5th night I usually get a good night sleep simply from the exhaustion.
Still, it's not that bad when you get used to it.
Oh, and I have to sleep on my side, back and front doesn't really work out for me.
