How much sleep do you need? Do you usually get enough sleep to function well?

If I sleep for longer than 6 hours I have a headache. 6 hours sleep is optimum for me.

More when it's cold.

More when it's cold.

Definitely. Must be a hang over from before we evolved into humans, so some form of hibernation.

My pattern is well established over many years. To the minute. I sleep 4 hours 17 minutes. Open my eyes instantly wide awake and ready for spreadsheets.

Maybe you should spread the sheets before you go to sleep?

Better yet, ask yourself what is your current quality of life. That will lead to more restfulness and energy vs simplifying it into "x-amount of sleep hours". If you let yourself into a shitty/bad/unhealthy day to day life, you will be tired even if you could cram in 25 hrs of sleep.

More than 6 hours is a waste...

 

[Vox Populi Vox Dei]

Ideally 7.5 - 8.5 hours, but often I am forced to operate on less sleep, much to my chagrin.

 

[boomslang]

9 hours is my sweet spot.
