How Many Hours Of Sleep Do You Need?

[Qin Shi Huang]

I really don't know what time to sleep or how many hour of sleep is enough? Please advise.

[Toro]

That depends on individual... I only need 5hrs.

[MonstaInYoMind]

Depends on the type of sleep you get to, is it quality sleep?

Different ppl have different hours of sleep required. Average is 8hours.

You should have a proper body clock (like what time you sleep usually) instead of always sleeping at odd hours. Like one day you sleep at 9pm then the next you sleep @ 4am.

To get even more satisfied sleep, have someone to sleep with you. You can also find out how many hours of sleep that person needs and the favorite position! ;D

[willo]

Doc says 7 is enough for average

[scorpiox]

mostly i need 7 hours.. If more will be good..

[sean_sean]

i need as much as possible!

[Zackling]

I sleep at abt 3am & I am up by 8am.. so yea.. plus minus 5hrs only

[rr0879]

I dunno when is enough...sometimes sleep for 7hrs also not enuff

[JordanEez]

the hours of my sleep is depends to how tired my body is

[Boro]

I sleep est. 9Hrs per day. Anything less than this I will feel giddy for that day.

[lonely57]

[JordanEez]

at least 7 hours of uninterrupted rest..

hahas this is what army always said when we are in tekong

[fab]

Recommend 8 hrs between 11 pm to 7 am.

[Guest faynic]

Weekdays abt 6-7hrs, weekend abt 3-5hrs

[aaa199]

7 - 8 hrs :-)

[Bumfuzzled]

Humans do not need to sleep.

God created coffee for that.

[Guest HoodlumX]

But from all the sleep you've experienced, how many times have you truly woken up fully rested and energetic?

Too much sleep and it becomes a bad thing as well.

[wahwahboi]

Yea, I need to sleep for around 7 to 8 hours, and if possible, I'll be on the bed at 11pm (and turn and toss on the bed) and wake up at around 8am in the morning.

Too much sleep and it becomes a bad thing as well.

Yep, I agree. I can't sleep more than what I can sleep (more than 9 hours) as I will get listless after that...

[SeannyShortcake]

I like a good 8 hours usually.

I'd usually get my fill in camp but a good nice bed at home is always ideal.

[fiction]

8hrs is barely enough for me. i have tons of sleep debt i'm currently paying back

[fizzy]

7-8 hrs.

There is a research done on this as well.

1) If you do not get enough sleep, you accumulate a sleep debt.

2) If you over sleep, well, that has yet to be explored

To avoid having sleep debt, sleep the correct amount of time. If for some reason, you are unable to, pay up the sleep time on another day and make sure it balances back.

[Gray]

Normally 7-9 hours of sleep. Exam period? 0 - 3 hours. I haven't slept from yesterday until this afternoon and going to ton tonight also. It's bad though, I'm losing weight and my skin is getting bad.

[Torrent]

5-6 hours, sometimes my body clock just wakes me up in the hours of 5-7am, annoying on days when you want to sleep-in.

[koolkai]

I sleep at abt 3am & I am up by 8am.. so yea.. plus minus 5hrs only

Why do you sleep so late?

[Guest Guest sleep]

Bought this App call Sleep Cycle. Put it beside you when you sleep and it will wake you up when you are not in deep sleep. Quite good. Wake up not groggy!

生理时钟子时（23：00~01：00）此时胆经最旺。胆汁需要新陈代谢。人在子时前入睡，胆方能完成代谢。应避免熬夜。 丑时（01：00~03：00）此时肝经最旺。“肝藏血，人卧则血归于肝。”如果丑时不入睡，肝还在输出能量，就无法完成新陈代谢。人要能完全放松休息，才能达到肝的排毒与滋养细胞的效果。 寅时（03：00~05：00）此时肺经最旺。“肺朝百脉”。肝于丑时推陈出新，将新鲜血液提供给肺，通过肺送往全身。此时最好起床，呼吸新鲜空气，能使血液中饱含氧气。对身体健康有重大帮助。 卯时（05：00~07：00）此时大肠经最旺。此时段最容易排便，如无法在此时段排便，表示肠胃不佳。这是用注意饮食调理，帮助大便畅通。务必养成每日排便的习惯。 辰时（07：00~09：00）此时胃经最旺。早餐要吃的好，而且要营养均衡，建议此时吃要咀嚼的食物，如饭、粟米、番薯（连皮吃最营养），可帮助唾液的分泌，中和胃酸，有益消化。 巳时（09：00~11：00）此时脾经最旺。“脾主运化、统血。”脾是消化吸收、排泄的总调度。脾的功能好，表现为消化吸收好。早餐的食物经过胃的消化，再由脾脏将营养分配到全身的器官，达到滋养全身。 午时（11：00~13：00）此时心经最旺。人在午时能睡片刻，对于养心大有好处。心属火，又水火不相容，所以中午不要喝冰冷的饮料，否则易导致心悸、猝死。 未时（13：00~15：00）此时小肠经最旺。此时可喝糙米茶补气，帮助小肠吸收并排除对于的水份及废物。 申时（15：00~17：00）此时膀胱经最旺。可喝糙米茶帮助膀胱产生张力、有利尿作用。 酉时（17：00~19：00）此时肾经最旺。肾主全身之精气，人体经过申时泻火排毒，肾在此时进入贮藏精华的阶段。 戌时（19：00~21：00）此时心包经最旺。心包是心的保护组织，又是气血运行的通道，心包经此时最旺，因此是滋养心脏、增加循环的时刻，心属火，因此避免在此时喝糙米茶。 亥时（21：00~23：00）此时三焦经最旺（上焦、中焦、下焦）。三焦通百脉。是人体细胞休养生息、推陈出新的时间。因此人在此时睡眠对身体十分有益。

weekdays ard 5 hrs, weekends ard 7 hrs.

trying to regular my sleeping hrs, but guess my believe is, Daytime always seems shorter cause many of us like to wake up late..

so i always force myself to wake up early, like 8 plus 9.(if working, 5:30)

but then as my work requires me to work at home after office hr, I sleep ard 12 plus every day and even later on weekends..

guess my body will age faster than i think

[darkflame]

About 7 hours is optimal for me. But I always sleep 5 hours only...

[Guest Sleep Tech]

Normal People averagely need around 6-8 hours of sleeping time.

But, as most of the people said in here, quality of sleep is the matter.

most importantly, N3 sleep, vital for physical replenishment.

REM sleep for learning and memory development.

I work as Sleep technician, help to provide "quality sleep"

[Guest Shoot to sleep]

If you masturbate on that day, you need longer rest. Otherwise shorter sleep is ok de.

4 HOURS LIKE A BAWSE*

(10 on weekends. bleh)

Same.

[Manbane]

8-10hrs for me

[Revolutionary]

follow the directives, if you're 15-18 (4hrs would suffice). 19-21 (6hrs would suffice). 22-26 (7hrs would suffice), 27-32 (8hrs would suffice) 33-40 (9hrs would suffice). Anything above 41, just 5-6 hrs would do. Some would probably be sleeping forever after 50.

[Guest]

I definitely need 8 hours. But I sleep around 5~6 hours every day

[XiaoMessy]

12 hours.

[merlinkun]
