How much sleep do you get?

And how often do you get it?

I live on the west coast US and I know I am a world away from many people on this site. I see posts at all hours and wonder, does anyone sleep?

Varies since retirement-my own schedule-

I get 4-6 hours sleep during the week and 6-8 on the weekends. I always have trouble falling asleep. I never seem to get enough.

I fit in 2 categories there. As long as my meds are working and I'm not recovering from an injury or infection, I get right around 6 hours. Without meds, it is zero. When my meds stop working so well, it's under 6 and often broken if I get more than 2 hours. After my concussion, I was out a good 10-11 hours a day for months. Most injuries or general infections give me between 8-9 hours. Last night I got 6 hours and 15 minutes.

I try to at least get 6 on my work days, on my days off I snooze until I'm ready to get up.

I lay down in plenty of time to get of sleep 7-8 hours, but I can't get my brain to shut down, so it's usually more like 5-6.

I usually sleep 6-7 hours but prefer to sleep 8-9 hours when I can.

I have issues sleeping. I find it's better for me to get either 6 or 10 hours. Anything in between sucks

I suffer from a mild form of bipolar and its important that I get the right amount of sleep. Not too much and certainly not too little as it leaves me vulnerable to 'episodes'

Try to get 8-9hrs. but hasn't been happening lately with all the drama and stress.

@Akfishlady Yeah, that's something I try too. What really helps is if got back into daily meditation and put the phone down too. 😉

"Sleep, those little slices of death - oh how I loathe them." Prolly the only place where Poe and I share ground. Left to my own devices, I would sleep when exhausted as I eat when starving.

Not enough M-F.

I have dogs. They bark for entertainment at random times. The excuses vary from the postman to plastic bags blowing down the street. I sleep between dog barking parties.

What is sleep?

Okay, normally I sleep 3 - 4 hours, but once a week I sleep for 8-10 to catch up.
