    How Little Sleep Can You Get Away With?

    Personally 5.5 hours here but if I get less than that I'm a bit cranky.

                  "pressing a key as soon as they saw something on screen" - this is sure a popular way to test quick reflexes. Another way to test quick reflexes is through sports. People should sleep about 8 hours a day.

                      4 hours and one 45 min nap a day.

                      Works fine for me and has for years.

                          When working with an overseas client, I get 8 during the day. If I am on normal sleeping hours, about 10 a night.

                                I wish you would go to sleep and stay that way.

                                    I typically go to bed around 2 am and get up shortly after 6 am. Most of the day is spent catering to three little ones under 3 years old. I get all my work done at night.

                                    I consider myself an insomniac. I often feel like I'm missing out on something by going to sleep and that doesn't make sleeping easy, and I've never been one to use prescribed sleeping aids.

                                    On Sundays, I get to sleep in and usually log a good nine hours. Once a week, usually around Wednesday...I take a nice afternoon nap.

                                    Spend you some brain.

                                      I need to sleep about 8 hours to feel myself well, it depends on different factors though...

                                        7 hours is best for me. I prefer less then 7 above more then 7.

                                            i can live with 5-6 hours for a couple of days, but i try to avoid that. one perk of being self employed is having no fix schedules

                                                I can go 2 days without being tired. I do it on a regular basis. During my week in Arizona for the Phoenix Forum. I slept 2-3 hours a night for 6 straight nights.

                                                For long term, I used to sleep 5 hours and do 15-16 hour days (ft post secondary+ft work) for about a year. Work is easy, being able to take in knowledge and read giant text books wasn't quite as easy. Hence why I only balanced the two for a year.

                                                Ive never been big on sleep, I feel there is a thousand better things I can be doing so I go as long as I can without it. I also workout and eat healthy, try to balance it out a bit because I know my body does need the sleep, even if I dont get tired. But I just freakin' hate sleeping. So now, I go about 20 hours, sleep for 8, 20 hours, sleep for 8, so my wake up time and sleep time is always different. i end up being backwards and being up all night and sleeping all night for a bit

                                                    I would say 5, but you should be getting 8-10 to be happy. lol Basically you should need coffee or caffeine to get through the day.

                                                        Because of the pain I suffer with 24/7 I can only sleep about 2 hours at a time and then I am up for about 8 hours...then will get another couple of hours of sleep. That is my normal routine.

                                                          Probably 5 - 6 hours at night, with a 2 hour nap in the afternoon. Once every week or two I'll crash for about 12 hours, which is always revitalizing.

                                                            whoa I thought I slept a lot all the time
                                                            i sleep between 8-10hrs
                                                            I can function on 5-7hrs okay but I am a bitch to be around

                                                            Problem is, my dreams are very intense almost every night. It's like I go somewhere, and do all these things and if I sleep less than 8hrs I wake up exhausted like I haven't slept the whole night.

                                                                                    I'll go 4 days without more than 2 hours sleep on a bad streak.. and then crash for like 12-13 hours after that so it always catches up with me eventually. Lately it's only been 2 or 3 day streaks so that's not quite as bad. If i feel that my concentration is going eg. can't read and retain anymore I'll will myself to sleep because I know it is time to recharge.

                                                                                    Am I asleep? Have I slept?
