The thing is...how much time to I spend in my bed trying to fall asleep?
If I hit the pillow and boom...I'm gone and wake up 6 hours later...then I slept 6 hours.
If I hit the pillow and think about my life for two hours before I sleep and then wake up 6 hours later...then I slept 4 hours.
If I sleep right away but then think about my life for one hour or two before I actually get out of bed.....
I feel lucky because when my head hit the pillow...I'm gone.
So when I open my eyes again, I know if I slept 3 or 6 hours.
Other people having a hard time falling asleep might not know the exact time they actually fell asleep so how can they figure it out?
I think everybody needs about 8 hours in bed, 6 hours of those actually sleeping. If you get less than that, you can catch up on the weekend, knowing that for every three hours you missed, you will need only one hour to catch up.
I like to not sleep enough because the catching up is three times faster so if you missed 9 hours of sleep during the week, you will need just 3 hours to catch it up.
(right now, it's 6:15am in my neck of the wood and I'm not in bed yet but when I get there, I guess I will sleep until noon)

I'm the other way around. I sleep more in the summer plus I don't have to get up early in the summer. 8 to 10 hours in the summer. Winter 6 if I'm lucky

winter i sleep around 8 to 9 hours(got classes too so i don't have that free time) and in the summer i sleep .... well, same! i don't want to sleep too much in the summer although i got time, cause if i did i would miss the sunny days, going for swimming and other activities too! yet, sometimes in the weekend i might as well be in the arms of Morpheus for like 10 hours or so!

About 4-5 hours in summer. It's too hot to sleep. In the wintertime I sleep longer.
