How many hours of sleep do you (honestly) get each night? What is the best amount of sleep for you for optimum performance at work the next day?

Lately, not nearly enough. And I don't really do napping. So basically, I have traded in sleep for more time.

When I add up my naps, snoozes, and sleeps I get about 8 hours a day. I'm retired so I sleep just about whenever I want to so I can get a good night's or a good day's sleep.

I only wish I could sleep. My 10 month old baby is still up 4 or 5 times a night. It's been a long time since I have had any sleep. I aim for 8 hours but it will be a while until I achieve that. Luckily I don't work but staying at home with kids can be hard when your sleep deprived.

I'm an architecture major, so typically, I get a few hours of sleep per night, and for sure I take naps during the day, thats how I survive.

If I am not working extra shifts (I work nights if I do), I usually get at least 8. And no, I don't often nap.

6 hours per night. I never nap during the day.

G'day Kdmichaels, Thank you for your answer. I usually get between 7 and 9 hours. I generally perform much better with 8-9 hours. Regards

I never get enough sleep. Maybe 4 hours a night. As you can see, it's 1:20 AM and here I am answering questions on AB. ; - p

If I sleep 2/3 hours broken sleep that is very good.
