Poll: How much sleep do you get a night?

[bobmus]

Once again I've found myself awake past dawn, having been gaming 'til past 2 with my friends online. I'm wondering what the rest of the Escapist community's sleep schedule is like - how many hours of sleep do you tend to get a night, and what kind of time do you go to bed?

Personally I tend to get around 7 hours, but fall asleep much later than I ever plan to.

Well I usually get around 7-8 hrs of sleep. I have afternoon classes and I have gotten into the bad schedule in that I can't fall asleep until around 3 am and I don't usually wake up till 10 or 11. Given the opportunity I can sleep around 12 hrs easily though I haven't hit that mark in awhile.

7 or 8 hours...I do set myself a bedtime as I get up early

 

[Kae]

Usually 4-5 hours, but since the last 4 weeks have been hell around 2 hours per day, yes I feel quite dead right now, but everything decided to happen at the same time so I'm screwed.

 

[Aris Khandr]

Last night I got five and a half hours. I wanted more, but I woke up. Hopefully more tonight. I typically try to get around seven.

 

[StormShaun]

I have to get up early and I value my sleep, so I usually get 7 or 8 hours of sleep each night.

But it depends if I am doing something I need to do.

 

[Vanitas likes Bubbles]

Depends really.

School nights usually vary between 6-8 hours

Holidays usually vary between 6-12 hours.

 

[Rawne1980]

Usually about 5 hours a night.

I don't need any more. I feel like i'm missing out on the day if I stay in bed.

I have an extremely messed up schedule but I like to sleep for 5-6 hours before class, then take a 2-3 hour nap later in the day. Though that's when I feel the most rested it's a pain to maintain since everyone likes to interfere with my nap. Then I end up sleeping 10 hours somewhere to make up for the lost sleep and after being asleep that long it's hard to wake up.

 

[Jonluw]

I go to bed somewhere around the 12 o'clock mark, and my alarm goes off at 6:30

 

[Strazdas]

8 hours. 00-08 is my sleeping time. NOTHING interferes with that.

 

[Nouw]

7-8 and sometimes 9-10. I should really sleep more because I'm a growing teen.

 

[smithy_2045]

I get plenty of hours, but it's horribly interrupted so I'm always exhausted the next day.

 

[manic_depressive13]

Anywhere between 3 hours to 12+ hours. For example, during a week when a lot of assignments are due, I usually get between 0-3 hours per night for that week. For the next few weeks I might average 7 hours, but when left to my own devices, such as during the holidays, I average about 14 hours a day. If it's a really long holiday I sleep for ages during the first week or two, then find myself unable to sleep for days on end during the subsequent weeks.

 

[The Night Angel]

I never wake up later than half ten in the morning, so it just depends on when I get to bed, but on average I get 5 or six hours of sleep I'd say. I find if I sleep in too much, I just feel tired all day then.

 

[Clive Howlitzer]

I generally get 6-8 hours on an ideal night. My schedule is very sporadic though because I work overnights. In general, I try to go to bed around 8:30am and get up around 4pm. However this isn't always the case and sometimes I go whole nights without sleeping. Or I'll bounce back to a normal schedule for my days off and then back to a wonky one after.

 

[Zack Alklazaris]

I wake up at 3 am, go to bed at 9.
6 Hours... Fridays are the worst.

 

[Olas]

If it's a weekend: 8
If it's during the week: 0 - 5
As I type this it's 7:45 am and I haven't gone to sleep yet.

 

[Bloodtrozorx]

In bed by 12A up at 6:30A to the office by 8AM. Everyone tells me one day I won't be able to keep this up...I guess we'll see.

Sleep? I don't.... is that the thing freshmen do? The one where they don't spend all night in lab?
