How Little Sleep Can You Get Away With?

Personally 5.5 hours here but if I get less than that I'm a bit cranky.

"pressing a key as soon as they saw something on screen" - this is sure a popular way to test quick reflexes. Another way to test quick reflexes is through sports. People should sleep about 8 hours a day.

When working with an overseas client, I get 8 during the day. If I am on normal sleeping hours, about 10 a night.

I typically go to bed around 2 am and get up shortly after 6 am. Most of the day is spent catering to three little ones under 3 years old. I get all my work done at night.

I consider myself an insomniac. I often feel like I'm missing out on something by going to sleep and that doesn't make sleeping easy, and I've never been one to use prescribed sleeping aids.

On Sundays, I get to sleep in and usually log a good nine hours. Once a week, usually around Wednesday...I take a nice afternoon nap.

10-12 hours at night and usually a few cat naps during the day.

Had to get up early this morning as we have a Fed Ex collection coming for a HD of content.

Not Fed Ex buying it.

I can go 2 days without being tired. I do it on a regular basis. During my week in Arizona for the Phoenix Forum. I slept 2-3 hours a night for 6 straight nights.

For long term, I used to sleep 5 hours and do 15-16 hour days (ft post secondary+ft work) for about a year. Work is easy, being able to take in knowledge and read giant text books wasn't quite as easy. Hence why I only balanced the two for a year.

Ive never been big on sleep, I feel there is a thousand better things I can be doing so I go as long as I can without it. I also workout and eat healthy, try to balance it out a bit because I know my body does need the sleep, even if I dont get tired. But I just freakin' hate sleeping. So now, I go about 20 hours, sleep for 8, 20 hours, sleep for 8, so my wake up time and sleep time is always different. i end up being backwards and being up all night and sleeping all night for a bit

I would say 5, but you should be getting 8-10 to be happy. lol Basically you should need coffee or caffeine to get through the day.

Because of the pain I suffer with 24/7 I can only sleep about 2 hours at a time and then I am up for about 8 hours...then will get another couple of hours of sleep. That is my normal routine.

Probably 5 - 6 hours at night, with a 2 hour nap in the afternoon. Once every week or two I'll crash for about 12 hours, which is always revitalizing.

Problem is, my dreams are very intense almost every night. It's like I go somewhere, and do all these things and if I sleep less than 8hrs I wake up exhausted like I haven't slept the whole night.

Always good to keep in mind that while coffee can keep us awake, it is not good for concentration, despite what many think, all the research shows we cannot concentrate as well after a coffee

I can get by on just a couple hours sleep.
Most times i work 48 hours back to back though (depending on how much work i take on)
Then i need at least eight hours to be fully functional again.

I've had strong bouts of insomnia for the past 4 or 5 years now but I've gotten control over it for the most part so haven't started any fight clubs up yet ;)

I'll go 4 days without more than 2 hours sleep on a bad streak.. and then crash for like 12-13 hours after that so it always catches up with me eventually. Lately it's only been 2 or 3 day streaks so that's not quite as bad. If i feel that my concentration is going eg. can't read and retain anymore I'll will myself to sleep because I know it is time to recharge.

Am I asleep? Have I slept?
