Question

How many hours do you sleep? & does it affect you?
I sleep for less than 6 hours a night. I do it because I have a husband, kids, pets, garden & house, & studies that all need attention. I sometimes get a bit tired towards midnight but all morning, day & night I am very awake & full of energy. Is this normal? What about you?

Answer 1

I sleep 4 hours And my twin sister sleeps 5 1/2 hours and so far we have not dropped dead

Answer 2

"normal" depends on the person. I need 8 hrs. min for me to operate like you. I am also on a different schedule than you. There are so many factors to sleep and what is normal that the best thing for you to do is go to A SLEEP DOCTOR and have a sleep study done if you really want to know the answer to your question
