How late is it normal to sleep in?

I worked all night last night and slept at like 5am, and lo and behold, here I am at the crack of dawn after like 6-7 hours of sleep, while my boyfriend who did not work last night...could probably sleep until 2-3pm....if I let him..\n\nI would call it laziness, lack of motivation to do something in life, or depression (has been linked with oversleeping)

You don't say how long you've been at the job you mentioned, but a change in sleep pattern is normal when we adjust the time of day we sleep.  Sometimes it can take a couple of months to get used to a new schedule.  Try setting an alarm and getting up at a certain time (say 8-9 hours) each day after you work.  Eventually you'll establish a pattern, and not feel so dragged out.

Hello.  Sleeping from 8am to 6pm means you are sleeping a good number of hours, the only aspect that could be considered as negative would be that your falling asleep at 8am, and not earlier.\n\nI have experienced this before, often during the holidays and I could have sworn I would never escape it, but I did.  I believe that this is mostly a bad cycle that is difficult to get out of.  \n\nI find the best solution is to break the cycle by force.  I would force myself to wake up at the hour I wish to wake up at (10am for example) and even if I had slept only 2 hours I would wake up and get out of bed.  Having slept so little it will be easier to fall asleep earlier the next night, and when you wake up the next morning, you will have slept several hours and should feel more rested.\n\nIts also worth noting that sleeping 10 hours during the day does not have the same rest and recovery effect on your mind and body as does sleeping during night hours.  So while it is difficult, it is worth trying to make the effort to get your body used to sleeping 'normal' hours even if it's difficult at first and takes a couple of sleepless nights to achieve.\n\nRight now I don't have this problem because my job requires me to wake up at 6am so I have had no choice but to get my body used to sleeping at 11pm (even though it was not easy at first).  Nonetheless when I'm on holiday, I automatically start falling asleep later and waking up later, and when the holidays end I have to adapt quickly.\n\nGood luck!

if you are normally active you need 5-7 hour total sleep during a 24 hour period. limit your naps to 20 minutes or you will feel sleepy the rest of your day or night. if you are not active you could probably stay in bed all day and night. get some fresh air and some sunlight

There will be times in your life when you will need 12 hours and it's no big thing.  Your body tells you when you need sleep, and if it's at all possible (like not at work or driving, etc.) then listen to your body.  When you sleep your body rebuilds itself.  Just don't over-do it night after night with that much sleep.  Normal needed is about 8 hours a night.  But you can play catch-up sometimes.

Well first i thought that is an easy question :S\nI "think" iam a morning person, though i definitely hit the snooze button really a lot (one time i kept waking up every 10 minutes for 2 whole hours :D)\ni only stay up late on saturdays as i have the next day off:), but normally i like to do all my stuff in the morning, yup definitely a morning person "i guess" :S..

Simple. After a good night's restful sleep, the body needs a few minutes (usually) to regain its alert state. \n\nThe average time that elapses between the first opening of the eyes and the readiness to get off bed (touch down) is in the range of 5-15 minutes. So an ideal snooze time has been designated so that a person is really ready to 'touch down' in about 9-10 minutes after he or she wakes. \n\nSnooze time in some clocks/phones is 5 mins while in others it is 10 mins. Some models allow the user to set their own snooze time.

Most people recommend at least 7 1/2  to 8 hours.  It depends also how old you are, sometimes older people get by with less sleep.  Look at it this way, if you get a certain amount of sleep then wake up, and you still feel like crap, you need more sleep.  Most important too is if you wake up in the middle of the night, DON'T look at the clock, it will psyche you out and you won't fall back asleep as fast.  Also try to go to to bed and wake up at the same time every day, or at least don't vary the sleep/wake up times by more than 2 hours (for example if you normally get up at 7am, don't sleep in longer than 9am, regardless of the time you went to bed), that's the maximum difference your body can take. Also don't drink ANYTHING closer than 3 hours before you hit the sack.

I'm a full time college student with a full time job and another part time job. I usually end up going to bed around 12 or 1 in the morning, and waking up around 5 or 6, depends what time I have to be at work, sometimes even 4 AM. I usually run on about 5-6 hours of sleep each day. It is tiring, but that's life.

8 hours is recommended, but it really depends on each person. Some people can function properly with 5-6 hours and some can not. You should try sleeping less than 8 hours and see how much sleep you need.

No.  I set my clocks 10 minutes slow.\n\nI like to be fashionably late.
