How much sleep do you average a night?

[WahKeen]

I don't have narcolepsy but can manage to work up a sleep anyt...zzzzzzzz

[sparky scott 29]

I guess I follow the avg.

Usually 6 hours a night is fine with me.

[Mr. Natural]

Five hours a night is typical for me. I'm off work every Sat. and Sun. and every other Fri., but I get up at the same time every morning. I usually catch a nap on Sat. and Sun. afternoons.

[MrNylon]

Five to five and a half is about it on average.

This depends for me. During the school year the average is 6 hours for me. Going to bed at 1:00AM getting up at 7. During summer it ranges from 10-14 hours. Usually going to bed somewhere in the 3-5AM time frame and getting up somewhere between 11AM and 3PM.

Ahhhh...I remember those days. I pretty much followed that exact same schedule throughout high school, as a matter of fact.

 

Word to the wise: predictable sleep habits go to sh*t once you reach college.

Yeah I remember doing that too. Now the only time I do that is if something keeps me awake during the night on and off.

For 18 yrs I worked a 12 hr "rotating swing" shift, worked 4days one week, 3 the next, 6 weeks on days 6 on nights.......averaged 4 hrs sleep on workdays/nights, & 8-10 hrs on off days.

 

The last 4 yrs i've been on fulltime nightshift, 6:pm- at least 2:30am,with every weekend off...... I remain noctural when i'm off so my "body rythym" isn't upset.....sleep 4-6 hrs a day during the week, 8-12 hrs Saturday daytime, and usually 5 Sunday daytime.

I try for about 7 hrs but wake frequently.

I'm usually up by 5 am during the week and hit the rack around 10 pm.

Sunday nights are notorious for poor sleep for me. Monday morning back to work stress I guess.

An afternoon nap on weekends is pure luxury.

Once in a while, if I can I'll take a day off work mid week and sleep most of it.

I have a generous alotment of paid vacation ( 7 weeks) so the odd day off doesn't screw up scheduled vacation time.

I would love to get more, but about midnightish to 5:15am is normal night for me. I have learned over the years that a 20 minute power nap in my car at lunch time is a big help.

[jnastynebr]

I like to be up by noon so the day doesn't get away from me.

[Jon S.]

On avg, less than 4hrs. On the weekend, I crash and burn, sleep most of the day to recover from the week.
