Well...I need 6-7 hours to feel myself great!!! But I know a person who need to sleep more than 12 hours!!! That's why he always feel bad)))))))))

I can't sleep more than 11 hours, even after 1,5 days being awake.

That depends on various factors))) During the weekdays I usually sleep about 3-4 hours per day. On Saturdays I sometimes allow myself to spend about 8-9 hours in bed. As a matter of fact I hate sleeping as I feel I waste my time while I am in bed)))))

I am like you, eksena. But I usually go to bed pretty early, and stand up early as well. 7...8 hours are enough for me to get myself restored.

How can you sleep 3 hours :)! I can't understand :)! I also want to sleep for 4-5 hours

It's as easy as that: I uaually get home at about 9 p.m.
Because of some household chores I can't sit down to work and some preparation untill 11p.m.
It usually takes me about 2-3 hourd to get prepared for the next day.
Then I have to spend an hour or two on self-education.
So it's almost 4 a.m. when I finally can get to bed.
I get up at about 7 a.m.
As you see, there are no two ways about it.

To be honest, I should add that quite often I want to enjoy a 6-hour sleep, but that's OK.

Honestly I sleep 7-8 hours, My activity starts after midday, it's only my body, I can't do things so early. And my job starts at 11-12 a.m. so that's feels good for me. I'm happy))))

I usually try to sleep 7-8 hours. If I slept less than that for more than one night, I would feel totally exhausted by the end of the week. Now I strive not to stay late at night and to get up early in the morning as I bet it gives more opportunity to do lots of necessary stuff. =)

I realize that sleep is like charging a battery. How much I need or desire depends on the state of my mind and body: last night I required 6 hours only; the night before was 8 hours! I find that my body feeds back to me information on the amount required at any given time!

It depends on some reasons... Usually I sleep 7-8 hours, but I can sleep 4-5 hours and feel myself good, but it can't be repeated more than 3 - 4 days at a time, you know. People should sleep 7-8 hours per day, no more and no less, cause condition of your skin, health, and body depends on your sleeping time. So we should try to sleep 7-8 h.

I think ecology also influence on the duration. BEcause, when I was in mountains I coold sleep less than 7 hours and ride snowboard all day long.

well.....I need 8 hours to feel great.....but i usually sleep less than six hours, cause i have many staff to do......:)
I usually sleep at 01:00am except of Friday and Santurday.....cause I do not sleep at all...:) and I wake up at 06:00am or 07:00am cause i have to go to the university and after that, I have staff that I like to do.....and I do not wanna loose my day by doing nothing...

You Michelle are busy like a hardworking bee. But the time comes when you’ll enjoy the sweet fruits of your hard work, I am sure!

i really enjoy my life.....it's interesting....I don't like the daily routine:)

5-6 hours enough for me. But sometimes I keep awake for more than 24 hours.

It's hard to believe that just looking at your avatar=)
Is it true that the long sleep leads to gaining the weight?

I don't kno about dependence between long a sleep and gaining the weight, but i know for certain, it is impossible to lay down right after eating-it will precisely lead to get fat )))

And what if you had a very heavy training before eating :)?

it´s so good, But! If you only are not going guzzle like a pig =))) Some food - the best variant - to eat regular but not too much food. =)) any questions ;))

No :) Food question we'll discuss in another topic :)

As for me I sleep about 9 hours I could and more)

Every day :)?

9 hours???? I could never understand people who can sleep for so long. It's waste of time, I think.

i agree with you Olivia_ko......but if she like to sleep so much.....then it's cool....

No, not every day)

everyone should have their opinion))

I want to say my opinion ))))
I CAN sleep about 9 hours and when i'm liying in the bed - is so good for me to sleep for a long time.. But when i woke up I already feel panic! And try to understand - why I sleep so long??? Why why??? Because, it was so good))) Amazing feeling)))) Just lie and sleep in your lovely bed))))
Do you know this feeling? Do you feel it??

Yep :) I feel it too :) But I know that it's time to wake up and that there are a lot useful and interesting things to do :)

... usually 8 hours, but during my mid-term exams 5-6 hrs ... times of stress...

i sleeps 7 hours so how i many hourse on the works!

I usually sleep about 6-7 hours, but I need more time to be relaxed.

I`m very strange person. I always sleeping 6 hours(maybe little more) and when I waking up, i think: when I`ll return from school back in home, I`ll take a brake - one or two hours of sleep. But when I`m сrossing threshold of my flat, I absolutely don`t wanna sleep. It`s a paradox)))

:))) when I get home from job, I've got the same feelings that I don't want to sleep, even if I wanted to sleep much in the undeground

Hey everyone! I'm new here, so I want to make some friends)
About sleeping: I sleep 8-9 hours)

I usually to stand up with bed, because me need to stand up. I want to sleep then all dey. My need of sleep is 8-9 hours.

usually 8 hours

Good question) I
I like to have a sleep, and I sleep about 11-12 hours!
It will seem to someone awful, but I here does not have anything terrible)
By the way, a long dream - beauty and longevity pledge!!) (it is proved by scientists)

See to it that you don’t oversleep your life, Ksunya_14!

Due to my university schedule I can sleep as much as I want) But when I worked I had to get up very early in order not to be late. Maybe it will sound strange but I miss that time! When you wake up at 12 or even later you don't feel like doing something, and then you become more and more lazy...

I sleep about 5-6 hours, but I can sleep any more when I allow it to myself!

Recently I've watched a great film about Nikola Tesla, a brilliant physicist and the most mysterious person of the XX century. He worked so hard that he slept only 2 hours a day, and for him that was enough. So do extraordinary people need less time for sleeping? What do you think on this subject?

Nikola Tesla was a person possessed by science, and probably his possession didn’t allow him to sleep more. He might hold an electric lamp in hand and lamp shone! Unfortunately, many of his mysteries have gone together with him!

mmm how interesting ...)))

Very painful topic for me(((((( I feel awful when I have to wake up at 6-7 am. From the other hand occasionally Mrs. Insomnia visits me at night. From the scientific point of view 7-8 hours are good for young persons. Seniors need less than that.
