    How many hours of sleep do you need a night.

    I was watching the news last night and there was a story on this. They were highlighting a study that 3% of Americans seem to get by on must 4 hours a sleep a night. No naps, or anything similar. Other traits associated with this 3 percent were your typical type A personality traits. Success driven, outgoing, blah blah blah.

    How many hours of sleep do you get/need a night.

    I need only 6 hours a night, and on weekends I'll take naps to make up for those times when it's less than 6

    I don't have a regular sleeping pattern, but if it is less than four hrs for more than 2-3 consecutive days - I find that tiring... 6 hrs, I can get by forever, and if I have plenty of time and the weather is bad I can sleep more than 10 easily. All in all, I like to sleep.

          How many I need or how many I want?

          I think I am functional at 5-6 every night.

          I would prefer to get 6-8.

            Similar to Jon.

            I need 6 but prefer 8.

              I really do need eight, and cannot operate effectively below five -- and five is really pushing it.

                If a person sleeps too little over a long period of time for a good part of their life, it can create serious health problems.

                I think I need about seven hours of sleep.

                  Usually 5-6 hours / night.
                  Unless I have taken Antihistminics (against my allergy) the evening before,
                  then I usually need around 6-8 hours

                      6 is doable; 7 to be fully productive; 8 to feel fully rested.

                          Well, it is the uninterrupted sleep that is my problem. I wake up every three hours.

                              Sleep is for wimps.

                              Actually I like to get about 8 hours sleep.
