Average daily sleep

My jawbone tells me my average sleep is over 10 hours a day. I’ve got B12 issues and wish I slept less as I could do so much more.

What’s your daily average sleep?

I'm averaging about 8 at the moment. Occasionally I have a night when I barely sleep and get up feeling frazzled.

4-5 hours if I’m lucky and doesn’t matter how tired I am I don’t sleep well. Head hits pillow and I think that’s the trouble!

I was concerned about my sleeping cause I only sleep 4 to 5 hours a night, then some nights 6 hours.

A really really good night for me is 7 hours.

But thankfully most of it is deep sleep. If I do 6 hours sleep, 5 and half is deep.

On average 6 hours some times I get lucky and get 7 other times unlucky and 5.

All depends where my work is the next day.

Ideally I need 8 on the weekends to help me recharge and not end up a grumpy sod!

I honestly didn't know that insomnia was a symptom of ADHD.

Also I feel for you.

Mine varies from week to week. It really depends on what my hours are. Im a bit of a night owl so getting to sleep early rarely happens. If i hsve a week of starting early it can be 4-5 hours a night, whereas if i get alot of late starts (after 11) it can be 8-9 hours.

But it never seens enough whatever i sleep

5 - 6 hours a night, nowhere near enough considering how much training I do when sleep is vital for recovery! I don't have any trouble staying awake through the day but start feeling run down after a while. Every now and again I'll get some Zopiclone from my mum and knock myself out for the night.

Taking Zoliclone really doesn't sound like a sensible thing to do. What i missed from my previous post was that my doctor told me about the amount is sleep required. Many people survive and function perfectly well with only a few hours sleep, some even only have power naps, there's no definitive length.

I recently read an article that showed that less than 7 hours a night will shorten your life and/or give you Alzheimer's.

I can get sleep in 3-4 hour chunks but not all at night

I function best on 7-9 hours sleep a night.

At the moment I'm in the middle of a huge flare up of an illness and have had very disturbed sleep for a couple of weeks and am only getting about 4 hours in total.

I wasn't being critical but days on end without sleep, you choice, but is it really worth it? I stopped working shifts to go on days, huge loss of pay but feel so much better for it.
