Sleep... Is it a requirement for you?

asdexander - 2008-06-21 02:49

Since the poll named "Caffeine consumption...Is it a requirement for you?" sprung up the other day i decided to start this poll. Nod Yes

So how many hours a day do you sleep? (average weekday)

Besides, i need to Justify my caffeine consumption. Leaving



I usually sleep about 4 hours a day when i study. And yes, then i rely on the marvelous drug called caffeine!

Usually 6 or 7 hours or so, does depend if I
had evening shift, when I did have that it is
difficult to get sleep

i need the minimum of 7 hours, optimum of 9 1/2 hours to be useful. Have pulled runs of 2 hours of sleep in my youth when I was building my KITT car.....and I'm sure that was not good......but what a rush and also very dangerous.....

i try and get at least 7hrs but usually wind up with more like 5-6. Sleep deprivation is pretty serious 60 minutes just had a study on it last week. Sleepy drivers are as Dangerous as drunk or drugged out drivers. Not getting enough sleep def adversly affects your job perf as well as has adverse effects on your health,diabetes,has been linked to sleep deprived people. So when your mom told you Go to sleep,she really was doing u a favor! Laugh Out Loud

7-8 is my target during the week, 5-6 at weekends generally speaking.

I can 'get by' on 4-5 but it's just wrong.

no problems sleeping long hours especially when listening to space ambient or drone ambient music.Arthur Dent and Deeper than Space-Ur/Drift is particularly effective.Don't play this or something similar in an endless loop if you don't have the time.

I average 5-6 hrs all the time. I have children that think they're Roosters and start crowing before sunrise. Leaving

last year i got by on three - fours hours at night then an hour siesta during the day, but lately my self just refuses to get up without 8 hours. ill wake up on the button at 8 hours. i think its linked to age. im about to hit 30.
