How many hours you sleep in a day?

I read on a science book that we should sleep at least 6-8 hours a day. But there is also this book that says that as we get older, the time we sleep decreases as well. How many hours do you sleep? I sleep 5-6 hours a day. It is fine with me. I can still function without feeling tired easily.

generally i sleep for 7 hrs a day but during my exams i hardly sleep for 4 hrs a day more over when i have some pending office file then sometimes i even go without sleep. i dont feel any problem with it but it depends on the mindset u have if u think u can control it then u can be sleepless otherwise u will be snoring whole day

It is really hard when we have so many work to do. It deters our sleeping and even eating sometimes.

i sleep anywhere from 5-9 hours a day. it depends on what time i go to bed and how tired i am and if or not i have to get up for something. i love it when i can get more sleep. sleeping is good. one of the best things ever. its funny tho, i love to sleep but i hate being a asleep sometimes because i feel like i might be missing something.

It is sad to know. Sleeping is almost like eating. And really one of the best good thing in life.
