How much sleep do you need to function?

[Zane]

I try to get about 7 hours, I would like to get a little more but if I stay in bed too long I almost always get a stiff neck which gives me a headache so it's just not worth it ;/ I'd rather be a little tired than deal with that.

 

[Bcat]

I have no idea. I can?t even function when i do get enough sleep

 

[Hellfish]

Zero hours to function. But if I don't want to be told off at work for being a zombie a minimum of 4 hours is required ^-^

And I normally sleep for 6 hours, so I'm fully charged

I need 12 hours to feel okay, honestly... that's really bad, but it's true. Or at least that's how it was back when I any say in my sleep schedule (I'd just go to work, sleep, repeat). I have been getting about 5 hours of sleep a night because I have a 2 year old that hates sleep. I'm brain-dead, anxious, in pain, and experiencing sensory overload every day. I don't even remember what it feels like to feel like I'm functioning properly.

Not sure. I reckon any less than four hours will ruin me. But for some reason I can't stay asleep past 7am so even if I wanted to catch some snooze during the day, my body wouldn't allow me to.

 

[Mr. Cat]

Reading what everybody else has to say and now I'm seriously worried because most people are saying 5-6 hours is fine, but my brain and my body are in excruciating pain every day. But why?...

 

[Loriii]

7-8 hours of sleep but I'm okay getting at least 5.

I usually aim for 9-10 hours, but I procrastinate frequently, resulting me in doing schoolwork in the early hours of the morning. If I was able to sleep for more than 10 hours without any issues, I would be delighted to!

at least 9 hours or i’ll get headaches/randomly sleepy during the day

 

[Farobi]

6 hours is good.. then maybe i can squeeze in a 30min-1hr30min nap at day time

 

[Han Solo]

at least 8, but I usually sleep too much. depression is annoying.

theyve never been to greener pastures

1 - 2 hours is just enough for me to start doing things.

 

[Haydenv019]

I usually sleep for 6 hours during the night, then take like a 2-3 hour nap after school.

Same thing applies to 4, But god knows how would I stay awake with coffee. (I ended up sleeping through fourth period yesterday AND GOT AWAY WITH IT.)

 

[Chris]

8hrs.

6hrs and I might be functional, but I'll probably take a nap.

 

[MorphiGalaxi]

I think 8+? I don?t really count how many hours I sleep for.

 

[honeyblossom]

I want like 14 but I can function on 4-6 just fine. I'll be groggy and tired either way, so there's really no benefit to sleeping for 14 hours.

 

[dveggs]

To properly function like 7...i can easily make do with less though.

 

[BambieTheMayor]

I've been known to work hard without sleeping in 24-36 hours... once I even didn't sleep for 48 hours and still functioned through my usual day without any problems (except a few times I almost fell asleep)

It's not healthy, I know, but I usually sleep 3209432 hours a day so I guess on the days where I don't sleep at all it all balances out lmao

 

[dedenne]

1 hour
