    Default poll: sleep

    How many hours of sleep do you need per night to feel well rested? I prefer to get 8-9 hours of sleep per night. I can deal with 7 hours, but anything less and you don't want to be around me. If I get 10 hours of sleep per night I feel too lazy the rest of the day.

    I said 'Other' because due to mental health issues, nothing seems to work.

    I said 9. Its what makes me feel good. 8 is ok, but with 9 hours I wake up feeling good and enthusiastic. It sucks that life basically always gets in the way of that kind of sleep.

    I read somewhere that women need 9 1/2 hours every night... seems a bit much. I'm fine with 7. It takes me an hour or 2 to fall asleep though (even with sleeping pills) because I hate sharing the bed with my boyfriend-or anyone. When I sleep alone it's soo much better.

    As a chronic insomniac AND a light sleeper(even with my sleeping pills any noise will wake me..birds screaming, construction down the street, cats meowing,hubby getting ready for work in the morning..really anything)..if I get 6 solid hours it was a GREAT night. Rare,but great

    Sleep? I remember sleep.

    I said 10+ - I can sleep all day if I get the chance. It's like I never get enough.

    Sometimes I'm okay with 6 hours of sleep and sometimes I need 10. Sometimes I feel like I could sleep all day. Something must be wrong with me.

    I am lucky if I get 4/5 hrs a night, but I can manage on that. It doesn't matter how tired I am I still find it hard to go to bed early, even if I get up at 5am (usual time I get up).

    Yup me too. Since I'm a troubled sleeper, any sleep that I can get is much appreciated.

    I said 9. It used to be that I could function on 5 hours of sleep, or 8+, but nothing in between. Now I just really need at least 9 to be fully functional. More is ok too.

    Me too. I've been working nights so long I have real issues with going to bed early. Even if I'm shattered I just lie there. This job has ruined my ability to sleep like a normal person forever.

    Glad to see I am not the only one who needs a good 9 hours. I used to be fine on 4-5.

    Ditto. If I get less than 7 hours I am non-functional.

    It depends on how long I've been up and whether or not I have to work the next day. Sometimes I'm ok with 7, others I can sleep 12 and still feel exhausted.

    6 hours at the very LEAST. That sounds nice right about now. I like to have 9-10 hours of sleep. I remember those days. I don't know how women with children do it. I'm dogsitting and OMFG. I know I keep whining about it, but lack of sleep will do that to ya.

    It totally depends on the day.

    On a day I'm not doing anything I can get 5 hours and be fine. I can also occasionally wake up with little sleep and be fine if I have a good enough cause, like waking up for a road trip. Any other time I need 10.

    I wake up at 8:30ish by myself no matter even if I just went to bed at 4am. Also I wake up a lot because I always get sick during the night and have to throw up a few times so the nausea will subside enough to let me fall asleep. I also thrash, talk, sit up and have night terrors so...I don't think I'm ever really getting truly rested.

    If I could just get a solids night rest I'd probably be fine with less.
