I never sleep more than six hours and am hardly sleep deprived. How long do you have to rest at night?

Last two weeks - 6

I really try to get 8 though. I end up feeling drained and uncomfortable all day with only 6 hours sleep. I blame this on a mixture of being active and eating unhealthy. If I ate better I could probably get by with less sleep.

I usually get around 6 hours of sleep during the week. During the weekends, I sleep for about 10 hours/night. Whether I dont get enough sleep, or I get plenty of sleep, Im always tired in the morning.

Usually around eight hours. If I'm traveling I get around six but then I have to make up for it later.

I have a newborn at home so my sleep pattern is a mess.
It has gotten better the past couple weeks.
I sleep for about 2 hours, then wake up for a feeding which keeps me up for about an hour. Then back to sleep for about 4-5 hours.

That is on a good night. A bad night has me not falling back to sleep after the feeding.

Somewhere around 6 to 7... I try to keep it in 1.5 hour intervals so I can wake up between sleep cycles, and do allow time to fall asleep.

About 8 but it's usually not restful as I have issues staying asleep and falling asleep.

usually like 6-7, and after my initial struggle to get out of bed, i feel find all day.

weekends can be more/less depending on what I have going on and if I go out and party.

Generally about 5 or so. I only got 4 hours of sleep last night... I'm running on fumes and Viso right now.

I try to get 8. I get pretty close. 7-8 usually on weekdays. 6 or so on Friday night. 7ish Saturday night.

I'm always tired though even when I have those nice 9 hr days.

About 6 or 7 hours on a weekday. I get up at 5 to go to work so I try to be in bed by 10'ish.
