Title: Sleep Deprivation
Post by: Macawmoses on May 06, 2009, 06:44:02 PM
Bit of an overabused topic, but hey.

Do you regularly get your minimum of 6-6.5 hours of sleep...or the recommended 10? I rarely get 10, but usually I get the bare minimum. Lately though I've had some serious sleep issues - can hardly get 3, and it really sucks.

How long do you sleep?

Depends if I take my sleep medicine. If I do then I can sleep for 8 - 12 hours(Helz yeah) and if I don't it's an uncomfortable 3 - 5.

I get around 5-6.5 hours of sleep.
Most of the time it's 5. It sucks, I have sometimes have a hard time falling asleep sometimes.
When that happens, I'll be laying in bed for three hours before I finally fall asleep. The next day, I feel like utter poop. ;-;

Um, it varies. Last night I think I got maybe 2 hours of sleep, and then I fell asleep for 4 hours in the afternoon.
Normally I go to bed around 12:30 or 1, wake up at 10:30 or 11:00...if I don't have class in the morning.

I tend to not sleep enough during the weekdays.

Or I sleep too much.

I usually get 6 hours of sleep, but if I want to play my DS late, I don't.

The recommendation is 10 hours?!  I've been getting by with just 6 since 8th grade!  I am feeling more tired this week, but only because I've been up later than usual.

Post by: Macawmoses on May 06, 2009, 07:13:57 PM
10 for people still developing...meaning males until 21 or so. Then it drops to 8ish.

I've had some SERIOUS sleep issues lately. I usually get around 7-8 hours a day, which is fine. But the bad part is I only sleep 4-5 hours at night, come home tired, and then have to sleep 2-3 hours. So I waste alot of the day.

Post by: Totla on May 06, 2009, 07:20:05 PM
I got 45 min of sleep Sunday night, five Monday night, and two last night. So I got the recommended for one day in three days. :)

I get 5-6 hours... It sucks to be honest. I want more but I can't afford that right now, unless I make some sacrifices...
I SHOULD be in bed right now. :D

Sounds a lot like me. I end up taking naps after school :\

I get 4 hours of sleep a day.

12 on the weekends to make it up :P

I average out 7-8 hours when I go to sleep at normal times. If I stay awake for most of the night I will sleep for 8-10 hours, unless I have plans that day, then it varies.

In all actuality it's been proven that on average people that sleep 6 hours a day live longer than those that sleep 10. I get like 6 1/2 hours.
Title: Re: Sleep Deprivation
Post by: Level_9_Chao on May 07, 2009, 07:34:01 PM
I get about 7-8 on weekdays, 10-12 on weekends. I used to get like 5-6 on weekdays, but I decided to sleep more as opposed to doing homework. Miraculously my grades have stayed the same. :O

After the hospital, I'm supposed to be in bed by 10 and it sucks :(

I've been getting at least 8 the passed few weeks though surprisingly
Title: Re: Sleep Deprivation
Post by: GreatGonzales106 on May 08, 2009, 08:08:46 PM
I don't get nearly enough sleep. It ranges from 4 and a half to 7 and a half hours, generally on the shorter side of that.

Speaking of sleep, I need to do that now- I have a performance tomorrow.

Are you mad?
Title: Re: Sleep Deprivation
Post by: RaveSage on May 08, 2009, 08:47:39 PM
I usually get 3 hours. Sometimes I'll get 4 if I'm lucky. On special days, like the night before a trip/event, I get less than 2 hours of sleep.

It all comes back to hit me in the face though because I'll randomly get fatigue every month and then sleep from 5PM to 1AM the next morning. And thus, the cycle repeats.
Title: Re: Sleep Deprivation
Post by: Pascal on May 09, 2009, 06:23:38 AM
Usually 6 on weekdays

Around 4-5 on the weekend
Title: Re: Sleep Deprivation
Post by: Doodle on May 09, 2009, 06:45:19 AM
When I have to get up for school in the morning, usually 6-8 hours of sleep.
On days when I don't have school the next morning, I can usually get around 12 hours of sleep. ^_^
Title: Re: Sleep Deprivation
Post by: Light on May 09, 2009, 10:25:15 PM
I usually get roughly 6-8 hours of sleep on the weekdays, but even then, I still feel tired. I can go anywhere from three hours of sleep to fifteen on the weekends.
Title: Re: Sleep Deprivation
Post by: Lohn Jocke on May 10, 2009, 04:37:22 AM
6-10. Depends if I have school the next day, or if I had friends over.

On a random note, why do parent force their children to bed? It's not like they'll be able to sleep or anything. Every time my mom did that, I'd just lay in my bed until I usually went to sleep.
Title: Re: Sleep Deprivation
Post by: PsychoYoshi on May 10, 2009, 09:26:22 PM
Entirely depends. Weekdays, 5-8 hours depending on HW and other factors. Weekends, usually 10-12.

This week, uh...I don't want to think about it. I'll probably be pulling at least one all-nighter.
Title: Re: Sleep Deprivation
Post by: Shujinco2 on May 11, 2009, 08:07:55 AM
It depends. Normally, I try to go for 15 hours on weekends.

When I get a new game, it's usually about 1-4 hours of sleep.

And on School Days, I get about 9 hours.

I stayed home today mainly to catch up on sleep, so I feel a little better now.  :)
Title: Re: Sleep Deprivation
Post by: Marmalade on May 11, 2009, 03:53:56 PM
Monday - Thursday and Sunday I get around 8 hours and on Friday and Saturday I get around 4 - 7 hours.

We should all get our schools to have a "walk out" or something and demand more time to let us sleep.

Well, I do that but after a few hours of doing that your arm gets really sore. One of these days I'm going to get it amputated or something because I always end up cutting off the circulation from sleeping on it =/

That would be odd to see in the news....

I'd probably be written up in a couple of my classes, it would probably insult some of my teachers or something silly.
