I get about 6 hours on an average night.  I am a light sleeper and I tend to wake up and not be able to fall asleep again.  At my best I get 8-9.  I am a young adult.

I get about 8hrs of sleep. I go to sleep at about 10pm and wake up at 6 am, but thats only because its my senior year (17 years young)of high school and I have like the easiest classes everrrr. Even with my two AP classes I finish homework so quickly. The last 3 years of high school I had alot of homework though so I usually went to sleep like at 2 every night. and got about 4 hours of sleep.

i've heard several times that the amount of sleep each individual requires is based on a number of factors, some of which include age, weight, and even diet. everyone has different schedules, and each one is independent to one another depending on their own individual health.<br />\ni'm not one to set an example, but i average anywhere from 5-7 hours of sleep on a regular basis. sometimes my body requires more, sometimes less, but it seems to balance out and i never feel as though i'm suffering from lack, or over abundance, of sleep.<br />\ni've included a yahoo! health article to help shed light on some of your own personal sleep habits.

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.

Eight to ten hours is best, although even a solid eight is better than less. Kids really shouldn't cut their sleep too short until they age a bit more; normally around 14-15. Even then, six to eight is what to shoot for. It just gets harder, the further you move into the teenage years, to find the time for enough sleep.

This depends on each person. I only want/need eight hours. Mrs. Thatcher (and others) famously needed only four hours. I knew a girl who regularly had twenty-two hours. None of these people thought they were getting "too much" sleep. They simply slept the amount they felt they needed.\nWithout medication and assuming good health, I would think the body naturally wakes when it has had sufficient sleep.

I am the same way.  My wife wonders why I am so tired all of the time, but the truth is that a little nap during the day is really good for you.  Peoples bodies are so different.  My wife can just keep going for all hours.  I am very active as well, I lift weights, run, and work all day, but I usually find that a good nights rest sneaking in a little nap helps a lot.  I know that athletes are recommended to get about 10 hours of sleep.  So, it depends on so many different things, but your body will tell you what it needs and you should respond.

Adult requires a minimum sleep of 6 hours a day, sleeps will seriously effect your health in a very big way, if you do not get enough sleep, your anxienty, stress level will increase with ease, your mind will not think properly and also that your health will deteriorate extremely fast. so please try not to sleep at the minimum of 6 hours, get a healthy 8 to 9 hours. \n\nIn Korea this guy died of being awake for 50 straight hours playing online game. A few cases has happend already. so Take care Cheers

drink more water, your body needs about 4 liters a day.  make sure your exercising, go for walks/runs/bike rides/swim, this will make you a little more tired, and get yourself on a sleeping schedule if this is possible with your life.  You need 8 hours of sleep a night for your body to be healthy and function correctly.  Give yourself some down time for 45 minutes before bed, don't eat or work out for a few hours before sleep.  Perhaps find some sort of aromatherapy that will help you get to sleep or take a hot bath.  You just need to be more relaxed.  Hope this helps.

Schools used to say seven to eight hours.  Now they are saying eight to nine hours.  I feel you should sleep as much as you feel you need to.  sometimes I only need to sleep three or four hours... sometimes I will sleep eleven hours.

Many people would reply by saying a minimum of eight hours of rest. But the answer doesn't depend solely on how many hours you log in bed. Night after night, you need deep uninterrupted sleep in a bed that provides adequate comfort support and space. What matters most of all is how you feel in the morning. If you wake up full of renewed energy, you've had a good night's sleep. \n\nThere is no one formula for how much sleep is enough for you. Expecting all people to need the same amount of rest would be as absurd as expecting them to eat the same amount of food every day. Each of us seems to have an innate sleep "appetite" that is as much a part of our genetic programming as hair color, height and skin tone. Normal sleep times range from five to ten hours; the average is 7 1/2. About one or two people in one hundred can get by with just five hours; another small minority needs twice that amount. \n\nHow much sleep is enough for you? To figure out your sleep needs, keep your wake-up time the same every morning and vary your bedtimes. Are you groggy after six hours of shut-eye? Does an extra hour give your more stamina? What about an extra two hours? Since too much time in bed can make some people feel sluggish, don't assume that more is always better. Listen to your body's signals and adjust your sleep schedule to suit them. \n\nKeep in mind that sleep needs change with age. And the older you are, the less total sleep time you may need. A newborn may spend 18 hours asleep. From infancy to adulthood, sleep decreases by more than half. Throughout the middle decades of life, seven or eight hours of sleep generally are needed to provide adequate rest. For older individuals, six hours may suffice.

sleep DOES effect your daily life. you need at least 7-8 hours of sleep a night to be fully rested. a bad nights sleep, or no sleep, can put off your whole day. go long enough without sleep, and your brain will shut down and sleep, whenever it wants to.\n\ni go to sleep about 11pm and get up anywhere between 7am and 9am.

You grow most when you are sleeping.  Kids stop growing typically between 17-19.  You are more than likely done with the growing years.  Average sleep is 8 hours.  If you still feel sleepy, you can sleep more, but your body also has the ability to adjust without negative side effects.
