What is enough sleep for a college student?

Question

I'm your typical college student and don't get enough sleep (around 5-6 hours a night). But every so often, I get 8-10 hours a night. Unfortunately, I still end up with black "bags" under my eyes. Sometimes, I wake up and feel even more tired with the 8-10 hours instead of 5-6 hours a night. How much sleep should I be getting and why is the extra hours not eliminating the black "bags" under my eyes?

Answer 1

Some people have baggy, tired looking eyes all the time. I do, and that's even when I get adequate sleep.

I love sleeping and I try to get at least 7 hours every night.

Try for 7/night.

Answer 2

7-10 hours a night

Answer 3

I have the same problem as you.

Anyway, the extra hours wont reduce the black bags under your eyes. I am applying some sort of cream and it seems to help.

Answer 4

minimum 6 hours
