I try to get 8 whenever I can. I can function ok on 6 which is what I usually get not only because I have things to do but I always seem to wake up after 6 hours of shut eye. I try to get a short nap during the day, it does wonders making you feel completely rejuvenated.
The average human requires 8 hours of sleep to function optimally. I wish I was one of the odd balls that only need 4 or so hours. There is one person documented that only needed 1 hour of sleep and would usually spend the night hours reading. Her REM sleep patterns were eccelerated. In other words her brain wave patterns would go thru all the things yours and mine do but within 1 hour instead of 8. Just incredible.
