It seems the amount of sleep I get has lessened as I grow older. It used to be about 7 and now it is about 6.

Nice post my friend, Its healthy to sleep 7 to 8 hours a day but in our generation its impossible to happen. in my own experience, I am too busy with my work and sometimes I don't sleep at all. Also I beleive others also do the same specially those people who loves night life. Many says that only the young people needs to sleep 7 to 8 hours a day.

I normally get about 6 hours of sleep per night. If I am really tired the next day I will take a nap with my daughter when she goes down for her nap.

I sleep for about 6 to 7 hours. Sometime I also do take power nap of about 10 minutes after I get back from work. For adults I feel its enough to get refreshed provided one gets good sleep.

I sleep usually about 5 hours a night. Sometimes less and sometimes more. If I have a week of less than 5 hours of sleep a night I might actually sleep for 7 hours.

I normally sleep for six or seven hours in normal day (without any additional works to do). If I have to stay very late at night, I sleep for two or three hours. It's sad that the two or three hours sleep is now my habbits because of income restrain...

Hi ramaditya, life is so hard now, so inorder to earn a little bit money now, we sacrificed the hour of our sleep. we need to have extra income in order for us to survive. thank you and have a wonderful day.

well the medications i am on are really strong, usually they keep me asleep for about 10 - 12 hours if i just wait to wake up naturally, which is what i usually do unless i need to be up early, so i usually sleep about 10-12 hours

Thats a very interesting question. you know what, sometimes i sleep more than 8 hours and sometimes less. Its tricky because we're not always in control of the time we wake up. On the days that I dont work early, I get up anytime. Then theres times when I have to use an alarm clock to wake me up, and it result in 8 hour less of sleep...so ya, its tricky.

Not enough most nights. I'd say I average about 1/2 of that. Which isn't enough. But there are some nights I get more than that. I maybe catch a nap once a week.

Hi, thanks for the response, yes if we have small amount of sleep at night, it think we should nap even in a small amount of time just to cope up or to relax our body.

I sleep about 7 hours a night. I usually need a bit more, though. I feel best when I get 9 to 10 hours depending on how active I am during the day. in college I got only 6 and I had to take frequent naps to stay alert in class.

I am a night owl so I only get cat nap here and there. The kids are up in durning the day so no time for sleep. I became this way because I have nightmares at night and have grown acustom to it.
