I get about 4 or 5 hours of sleep each night. Then every once in a while I crash (about once or twice a month) and I sleep for 12 hours. I have a lot of trouble sleeping and I've had trouble for a long time. It's getting a little better though. And when my fiance is home and sleeping next to me, I have no trouble sleeping. So when he's home again, in 5 months, hopefully I won't have as much trouble!

Yeah apparently if you don't get enough sleep it can effect all areas of your life. Especially relationships.

i don't feel deprived when it comes to sleeping. i sleep early at night and wake up early, too. i have lots of pets to take care of and lots of chores to do at home.
after doing my chores, i can go and have a nap again. i am lucky i can sleep anytime i want. but i am always responsible enough to do all my chores. i am not working at the moment. but when i get back to work, i might not have enough sleep again.

Thats good that you are having a relatively chilled out time just now and appreciating it.
Enjoy the rest!!!

8 hours of sleep is enough for me as well. then, if i am tired after my chores, i try to take a nap, too.

well, I don't sleep very much, but I'm really satisfied with even few hours of sleep per night. Anyway I can say I need at least six hours...if seven well this is enough for me...there are nights in which I'm so productive that I can never find the way to my bed...other times I can fall asleep very early according to my standars...Of course it depends on the amoung of work I had to do during the day, on how much I slept the night before or two nights before and so on. But I can say I'm lucky because I can sleep few hours and stay well...I'm always meeting people complaining of how tired they are, how they wish they could sleep a bit more...I think this is very tiring and depressing for them.

Just think of what your achieving though by doing all this.
get some cucumber on your eyes and once you've worked enough you should try and get a free couple of days.

If I don't get 8 hours a night, I know I am unbearable! I snap and shout at everyone in earshot, I make istakes at work, lose my concentration, and burst into tears all the time! If left to my own devices, at weekends or holidays, I naturally sleep for 10 hours, and wake up fresh as a daisy. Sadly, I rarely get that much, so just scrape by on 8, but anything else, and I am another zombie!

It is such a shame so many people do feel deprived and I think it might be the root of alot of peoples problems.
I try to conquer it by having naps whenever I can.
Even if its just a wee 10 minute nap./

I only do office work so it's more of sitting and typing. It makes me dizzy if I don't get enough sleep that is usually 7 hrs. I can't imagine those who work in construction, factory labours or mines, they must be in real danger if losing concentration because lack of sleep !
