Is 6 hours of sleep enough??

For most adults, yes.  I think a lot of people sleep too much, either because they are avoiding life, or because they are wearing themselves out in the daytime.  Did you know, by the way, that if you nap in short segments, you need less total sleep time?  Try taking a nap soon after dinner, for an hour or two, and then stay up until you are really sleepy.  Even if you have to get up to an alarm clock in the wee small hours of the morning, you will probably be more refreshed than if you went to bed approximately 7 to 8 hours before the alarm is due to go off.\n\nRemember, too, that wake/sleep cycles are as individual as everything else about human beings.  We can learn something from the ways of others, but ultimately we must each find what makes us feel the best.  Life is an experiment, and you are your own guinea pig.

Sleep when you're tired, but the most crucial sleeping hours are considered to be 2-6am (you should sleep more than 4 hours though, at least 6 at a MINIMUM).  Happy sleeping.

No, whether you oversleep or undersleep, it doesn't change the next days sleep. You should get different amounts of sleep at different stages in your life but as a rule of thumb, get your 6-8 hours....whether or not you over/underslept the night prior.

For healthy adults, 5-7 hours of sleep per day is what is required.\n\nIf however, you are not a healthy adult, and you sleep for less than 4 hours per day, then your chances for medical problems dramatically increases.

Ideally if you could take a nap would be the best.\nget off at 6pm, I would stay awake till like 12 or 1 am then get up at 7 or 8 then try an take a 2 hr or so nap at 3. \nLearn to take naps, get up earlier and then take a 1 to 2 hr nap before you have to go in to work.

Normal human being have 6-8 hours sleep in 24 hours and its better if one have this duration in a stretch. If your required quta is fulfilled then its psychological factor that you feel asleep all the time. Try to remain busy and have some productive and positive hubbies. By the way, why you laydown so many times?

Eight hours is plenty of sleep.  Most teenagers get MUCH less than that, but for most adults and teenagers, the recommended amount is 8-10, I think, and it varies from person to person.\n\nGetting too little sleep, of course, leaves you tired through the day.  However, it is possible to get too much sleep (although that seems IMPOSSIBLE to those of us who are sleep deprived), and that can leave you feeling groggy and wishing you had more.\n\nIf you're waking up feeling rested, you're probably just fine.  You may want to talk to your doctor (or a trainer, if you have one) to make sure, or if you are waking up still feeling tired.

It sounds like you might not be getting quality sleep...see below....\n\nAccording to a poll conducted by the National Sleep Foundation, adults in America average 6.9 hours of sleep each night, which is slightly less than the recommended range of 7-9 hours. Sleeping gives the mind and body an opportunity to work. During sleep, the body does repair work by replacing old cells with new ones and re-energizing the organs and muscles. Also during sleep the brain is busy sorting through all the events of the day and storing the day’s learning into memory. \n\nThe quality and quantity of the sleep you get will determine how productive the next day will be. Here are some tips to help you get the sleep you need and deserve.\n\nEstablish and maintain a regular bed and wake time schedule, including weekends. \nDevelop a regular bedtime routine that is relaxing. Examples include soaking a hot bath or reading a good book. \nCreate a sleep inviting environment that is dark, quiet, comfortable, and cool. \nMake sure you have a comfortable mattress and pillows. \nUse your bedroom only for sleeping and relaxing. It is not wise to take work materials and computers into your sleeping environment. \nEat the last meal of your day at least two to three hours before bedtime. \nComplete your exercise routines at least a few hours before bedtime. \nAvoid caffeine close to bedtime as it may keep you awake. \nThe amount of sleep each person requires varies from individual to individual. When you get the right amount of sleep, you should not feel sleepy the next day. If sleepiness is creating problems in daily activities, you probably need more sleep. \n\nAccording to the National Sleep Foundation, the amount of sleep recommended, according to age, is as follows:\n\nInfants/Babies (including naps) \n0-2 months: 10.5-18.5 hours \n2-12 months: 14-15 hours \nToddlers/Children (including naps) 12-18 months: 13-15 hours \n18 months to 3 years: 12-14 hours \n3-5 years: 11-13 hours \n5-12 years: 9-11 hours \nAdolescents 8.5 -9.5 hours \nAdults/Older Persons On Average 7-9 hours \nSleep is as important to our health and well-being as air, food, and water. You may need to seek to advise of your doctor, if problems getting quality sleep last for more than a week and become bothersome or if sleepiness interferes with the way you feel or function during the day. \n\nDon’t deprive yourself of the precious sleep your body needs to stay healthy. Remember, when you get the right amount of quality sleep, you’ll wake up feeling fresh, alert, and ready to face your day.\n\nSource: The National Sleep Institute

What is the right amount of sleep?? but most importantly, what are the right hours to sleep?? If you sleep 8 hrs per day but you go to bed at 1 am do not expect that it is the same as iif you had gone for sleep, say at 11 pm . There is evidence that there is an optimum 8 hrs of rest and that is between 10pm and 6 am the next day, since it is during those hrs that our body takes inventory of what is missing and goes about replenishing it. Meaning if you are out and about during those hrs, not only you are not replenishing but you are 'spending' also additional energy/ body resources at a time when your body is not really prepared to do so. Do not expect such advice to be widely disseminated in our electricity frenzied societies, however if you ask any honest phsyician, they will tell you so.\n\nI have been trying lately (the last 2 months or so) to at least prepare for bedtime at 10 pm, and be under the covers by 11pm the latest, during working days. I still feel drained at times, but I also began to feel a little better during other moments. (It also shows a little in my face too)\n\nAnother possibility of your being worn out, is that there may be some health condition that has not fully manifested. A first and easy step would be just some standard blood tests which are failry inexpensive, that will give you some indication of that, (if any exist)\nA third possibility is that we are all under some intense stress ( I hear more and more people complaining of feeling drained) which is putting us down

According to studies, minimum rest/sleep time must at least be 10 hours a day... If you don't, it might impair your judging abilities and affect harshly on your work... Also you are easily irritated if you lack sleep... 10 hours a day man... prioritize your own health rather than your job...\n\nHope this will help you...

The 8 hour rule is rubbish - it's slightly different for everyone. I need 7.5 hours in order not to feel tired, but I have worked for months on end with about 6 to 7 hours a night.  My brother in comparison has always needed at least 8 hours minimum.\n\nBest way to test is to got to bed slightly earlier for a week or so. If you feel much better and yawn less at work the next day then you probably need that extra time in bed!\nIf you are still knackered then go to bed even earlier - etc.\n\nAnd there is also such thing as too long in bed. Well, there is for me...if I spend more than 10 hours in bed I'm like a zombie for the rest of the day!!
