Poll: How much sleep do you get..

[Admiral Huddy]

.. on average?

Kind of a no **** Sherlock article but wondered just how sleepy OcUK are.

researchers at the University of Surrey analysed the blood of 26 people after they had had plenty of sleep, up to 10 hours each night for a week, and compared the results with samples after a week of fewer than six hours a night.

I can only dream of 10 hours sleep but I'm pretty sure I'd be more lazy and lethargic.

 

[rishy]

need a minimum of 8 hours otherwise i feel like ****

 

[HecFam]

I usually try for a solid 8 hours but more often than not it will get closer to 7. A late one i consider to be 12.

I try to make up for it on the weekends.

 

[iP0werSav3]

On average about 8 hours a night give or take.

 

[Hyburnate]

I had 9 hours last night, but I'm still a teenager, does this make me null?

 

[teenwolf]

now i get around 7-8 hours.
when i worked on the vans i used to have around 4 hours a night.

 

[RomanNose]

Need at least 10 hours or I feel awful.
Usually get about 6-7.

 

[R.P.L]

I seem to be alright on 6-7 hours, with a good 10 hours per night over the weekend to catch up. As I haven't been working recently though, I've been getting 9-10 hours each night

Sometimes I am up all night, sleep is not very good with me, been like that since my student days.

8/9.

I did however sleep for 15hrs this weekend just gone.

 

[Theophany]

I aim for no more than 7 and as long as I force myself up in the mornings I'm good for the day without feeling overly tired in the evenings. More sleep than that makes me feel tired, less makes me drink too much coffee.

Heavy weekends seem to be where most of the damage is done though. Excessive drinking seems to result in 8 hours of being out cold rather than sleeping, which is troublesome.

5/6, That's what shift work does to you.

 

[valkia]

I aim for 7 - 8 hours but end up normally getting 6 - 7

Generally I don't like sleep as it feels like a waste of time, but I understand the consequences.

 

[NotAGolf]

About 8 at the minute. Will drop to 7 every other day when I start going to the gym again.

 

[The Dread Pirate]

I have about 6 hours a day... and at least 10 at night

 

[teenwolf]

Ok ?

[Amos91]

With work around 7 hours. Weekends a bit more at like 8-9.

Back in my student days (last year ha) I used to go for like 10 hours+. Maybe go to bed around 3-4am and get up at some point in the afternoon. I miss that...
