Poll: How Much Do You Sleep at Night?

[Amberella]

I used to get barely 3-4 hours a night.

But lately, since I went to the UK to visit my boyfriend, I've been having some major jet lag. xD I swear I've been sleeping for like 7-9 hours a night and I'm STILL tired! Also, I get drowsy and exhausted easily since the trip. :S That 5 hour difference screwed me up something awful. Lol.

The days I have to go in to uni I try to be in bed fairly early to get as much sleep as possible as I have great difficulty getting up early in the mornings. Probably around 8 hours though.

On my days off and weekends I'll stay up as late as I can and I just sleep in for like 10-13 hours. Whenever I feel like heaving myself out of bed.

about 7 hours on weekdays, random lots on weekends

I go to bed around 2 and wake up around 9. So 7 hours for me!

12-16 hours... just depends...<.<

8 hours every day or more, it's unhealthy to sleep for less than 8 consistently.

This is going to sound weak without a source, although I having a hunch it may have been in the general book of ignorance.

a test was done on some people (100 or something) half had 8+ hours and the others had 7- of the ones who slept less they lived longest, the ones who slept more 5 or so died during the experiment.

Told you it would sound weak ....

I aim for 8 but usually over do it a tad, then I sometimes go a sleepless bender and not sleep for like 2 or 3 nights ... so I think it evens out.

My sleep intake varies massively every night, but it never seems to be enough as I'm always tired as hell.

 

[Penguinness]

I have a fair bit but it depends on what's happening the next day or the my sleep times. If I have something the next day then I tend to go to sleep later than I should and so only get 6 hours or so. If I don't have anything the next day I could sleep 8-12 hours.

It really depends. Usually anywhere from 5 to 10 hours. Depends on when I get up. I can't fall asleep at night without medication, but will fall asleep during the day if I don't get enough sleep.

 

[Ham_authority95]

On school nights I'm usually asleep by 11 and wake up at 7, so eight hours. It never seems like enough...

On weekends I sleep anywhere from 10 hours to 2 hours

 

[noxymoron19]

I go to bed and fall asleep instantly. Who wants to waste time lying in bed. I get 7-8

 

[Yureina]

Varies wildly. Sometimes less than 5 hours, and sometimes more than 12 hours. I tend to wake up at the same time everyday, so my sleep pattern is mainly due to how late I chose to stay up. XD

And... my bed is snuggly. Sometimes I just wanna stay in it. ^_^

12-16 hours... just depends...<.<

I wish I could get that much. Hell, I would kill for a solid 8 hours.

 

[Raistlinhawke]

Partial insomnia adds a couple of hours of twisting and turning before sleep, so its hard to calculate exact when I fall asleep.

 

[Catalyst6]

I think of when I have to wake up and count backwards by eight to get the recommended amount. However, there's a big difference between going to bed and sleeping, so I can't honestly say.

 

[Outright Villainy]

Somewhere between 5-7 hours, more if I don't have college the next day.

Tonight's an all nighter.

 

[DesiPrinceX09]

I have insomnia, so I hardly sleep at all (less than 4) and not by choice; been like this for almost 9 years. It's not fun at all

 

[Bradd94]

6-7h is about average
less on weekends though
