Reply with quote

I have been feeling so tired lately, so I try not to think about how little sleep I'm getting because it just makes me more tired. But I was wondering if my habits of only getting 4-5 hours of sleep on average each night is normal, or are there PF'ers that get less sleep than that?

Sleep? Was sleep mentioned? I don't think I am familiar with that word anymore.

I can't vote because I usually get 7 to 8 hrs, and that wasn't a choice.

Aww, poor Maine.

I forgot to ask the question...how many all-nighters have you pulled and why?
I don't think I've ever actually gone all night without sleep...but the night after Patches had her surgery and was in pain I think I only got 1 hour sleep that night, had school the next day.

And how often do you get to sleep in?
All my friends at school complain at how tired they are but then they tell me they slept in till 10am or so Saturday morning to try to catch up on sleep...I honestly can't remember the last time I slept in. I work Saturday and Sunday mornings, and the weekdays I have school.

I have to get atleast 7-10 hours of sleep in. I either go to sleep early and wake up early or go to sleep late and wake up late. At my last job, I had to go to work at 6AM on weekdays and 5AM on Saturdays so I needed alot of sleep or else I'd get really tired during the day.

Everytime my son has to go to Augusta I don't sleep the night before/of. I can't sleep try as I might I can't.

During the week I try to go back to bed after my son goes to school(leaves at 6:40am) for an hour or 2. Usually I just crash on the couch till the other boys get up.

On weekends I usually sleep till between 9 and 10 am. The hubby lets me sleep in a little.

I sleep 8-8 1/2 hours. If I "sleep in", I may be able to sleep until 6:30-7. The dogs won't let me sleep any later than that.

I usually get about 7 hours on the weeknights, and a little more on the weekends. I am one of those people that HAS to sleep a certain number of hours the night before, or I am useless during the day.

In my previous life, the one before kids, I used to need 8 hrs every night or I was useless. Now, I'm with Maine - sleep, what is that? I guess that means I'm useless every day now...

I have been sitting here for about 20 minutes trying to figure out how much sleep I get, but I guess when you get to sleepy, you forget how to add!!! I get as much sleep as Jack will allow!

I think I get about 4-5 hours of sleep. I get up all the time to go to the bathroom. I also have RLS so I don't always get that much sleep.
