How many hours of sleep did you get last night?
I got 5 hours of sleep last night.

How many hours of sleep do you normally get a night?
I usually get 5-7 hours of sleep a night.

How many hours of sleep do you need to get in order to function properly?
I can't function if I've had less than 4 hours of sleep.

Did you take any naps during the day prior to falling asleep last night?
No, but I couldn't have even if I wanted to; I was too busy knocking over an assignment.

Do you normally take naps throughout the day?
It depends on how tired I am. If I'm completely zonked I'll take a nap in the afternoon to freshen up.

How long do your naps usually range in time for?
They usually last around 1-2 hours. I took one a few weeks ago that went for 3 hours, and I wouldn't do it again: it took an hour to shake off the awful sleepy feeling you get after you wake up.

Do you have trouble falling asleep at night?
I used to, but I can fall asleep a lot easier now. It probably has something to do with my later bed-times.

Do you have trouble staying asleep?
Occasionally I'll wake up during the night, but I've stopped doing that lately: I used to wake up 2-3 times every night, which sucked.

Do you take anything to aid you in falling asleep and/or staying asleep?
I take anti-spasmodics sometimes to calm my stomach (I get stomach pains quite often) because I can't sleep if I've got a stomach-ache!

How many hours of sleep did you get last night?
I went to bed at 11 and it's 8:30 as I write this. Do some math.

How many hours of sleep do you normally get a night?
Not as much as I need.

How many hours of sleep do you need to get in order to function properly?
Depends. If I stay up past 1, I won't wake up until noon the next day. If I go to bed at 10, 8:30-9 is a good wake-up time.

Did you take any naps during the day prior to falling asleep last night?
Nope. I was busy doing nothing.

Do you normally take naps throughout the day?
When I'm sick, yes. I can't stay awake for very long.

How long do your naps usually range in time for?
4-5 hours.

Do you have trouble falling asleep at night?
Yup. Too much thinking right before bed keeps me awake, and it takes me forever to realize I'm doing it.

Do you have trouble staying asleep?
Not usually. I'm a heavy sleeper.

Do you take anything to aid you in falling asleep and/or staying asleep?
I don't use sleeping steroids. I'm an ethical sleeper, thank you. I keep it natural.

How many hours of sleep did you get last night?
Not many. There were things that woke me up and I was already anxious from... well, I've been anxious lately because I've been delving deep into myself and figuring out things. It'll wear off once I get used to seeing myself in this new light.

How many hours of sleep do you normally get a night?
I think nine or so?

How many hours of sleep do you need to get in order to function properly?
6 hours and thirty minutes to 9 hours depending on the day.

Did you take any naps during the day prior to falling asleep last night?
Yes. That didn't help either.

Do you normally take naps throughout the day?
I avoid them as much as possible because they mess everything up. It's only when I'm really tired that I do.

How long do your naps usually range in time for?
Two to three hours.

Do you have trouble falling asleep at night?
If I shut up and stop talking, no, I don't have trouble falling asleep.

Do you have trouble staying asleep?
Typically not, but lately I have been having sleep issues due to afformentioned issues and also because I drastically changed my schedule after being on a night time schedule for a long time.

Do you take anything to aid you in falling asleep and/or staying asleep?
I don't, but I am aware that some people need them or they can't sleep.

What a coincidence that this thread magically showed up after last night where I had trouble sleeping. Have no idea why, but for some reason, I kept rolling around in bed even though I was actually tired from spending 10 hours doing a program, and writing a report ;; But nope, brain had another idea so I didn't get the 8 hours I wanted, instead I got 6, which resulted in a headache this morning @[email protected]

Last night I fell asleep at around 2:30 and woke up at 9. I'm still yawning so I might go back to sleep. 7-8 hours is fine for me, usually I naturally wake up around that time. I sleep hard and easy though.

Yeah I'm pretty much going to copy-paste because I wouldn't know what to say regarding my horrible sleeping habits. :D;

How many hours of sleep did you get last night?
6. Which is a little more than I'm used to.
How many hours of sleep do you normally get a night?
Usually 4-5 hours.
How many hours of sleep do you need to get in order to function properly?
.. 4-5 hours apparently. :D; Though I function fine with less or without sleep too.
Did you take any naps during the day prior to falling asleep last night?
Nope.
Do you normally take naps throughout the day?
I have too much trouble falling asleep as it is. That would make things even more complicated.
Do you have trouble falling asleep at night?
Yeeeees. I tend to toss and struggle for 2+ hours without a pill. Sometimes I give up altogether.
Do you have trouble staying asleep?
Yes. I'm usually awake sometime in the night/early morning trying to go back to sleep.
Do you take anything to aid you in falling asleep and/or staying asleep?
Yeah. I have some medication for it since I can hardly sleep without it.

Honestly I could sleep for 12 hours (and I have) and still feel exhausted. My sleep quality is extremely poor and I'm always tired.
I've learned to live with it though so it's not a huge deal.

I don't think I'm actually an insomniac more than I just have anxiety struggles.
Usually end up waking up with my heart pounding to no end and feeling kinda ill.

Don't you just love when you can't help but think about everything in your life, past and present, when it's time to sleep?

I can't take naps at all, I need darkness, silence and nighttime.

Do you have trouble falling asleep at night?
Yes it normally takes me an hour to fall asleep, when trying. If I have something on my mind then it may take longer. I also can't go to sleep and leave my bf awake without making myself less sleepy :(.

Hmm, I'd say about 9.

How many hours of sleep do you normally get a night?
I'm a nocturnal guy, and I have to get up around 7-8, so about 5-6 hours of sleep

How many hours of sleep do you need to get in order to function properly?
At the bare minimum, 4-5 hours. 3 won't cut it. Hell, 4 is being generous. I really need 5+.

Did you take any naps during the day prior to falling asleep last night?

Nope

Do you normally take naps throughout the day?

No XD

An hour or two, but sometimes I can sleep for three

Only if a certain pest that sleeps in the same room is tossing and turning and other annoying stuff. :|

I went to bed at around 12:50AM and am not sure when I fell asleep. Sometimes it can take me up to two hours. Barely hauled my butt up at 11:30AM and now it's 12:20PM as I sit here and type this groggily. So going by how I usually sleep I assume I fell asleep by 1:30AM and got ten whole hours of sleep today! That's more than usual. So long as I get more than 7, I'm good.

And nope, I am not a napper. It usually makes me feel gross afterwards and tends to ruin my sleep schedule. ):

Last night I slept for 9 hours.
I usually sleep for 7-10 hours, depending on the amount of fatigue I have to recover from; while I have never slept for less than 7 hours, I would probably only need 4 hours of sleep to function properly the next day... Also, I never ever take naps.
I do have problems falling asleep, but it's some kind of voluntary effort to stay awake, because I love to let my imagination run wild while I am laying in bed; I certainly do not take any pills or even make use of any natural means to aid me in falling asleep, I just accept that it will happen when it happens.

Do you normally take naps throughout the day? - Not really.

How long do your naps usually range in time for? - They don't.

Do you have trouble falling asleep at night? - Yes, a lot. I'll lay in bed for hours to get to sleep if I don't take at least 5 sleeping pills.

Do you have trouble staying asleep? - Not at all.

Do you take anything to aid you in falling asleep and/or staying asleep? - Sleeping pills when I feel like/remember to use them.

How many hours of sleep did you get last night? - 4 hours? Might have been a little less.

How many hours of sleep do you normally get a night? - It varies a lot. Maybe around 5-6ish? I've been sleeping more like 3-4 lately, though I've also started napping, which I don't normally have time to do, so my schedule's a little screwed up.

How many hours of sleep do you need to get in order to function properly? - Not sure. More than I get.

Did you take any naps during the day prior to falling asleep last night? - Yes, but that was mainly because I was feeling nauseous.

Do you normally take naps throughout the day? - Lately, yes. During the term, not too often, as I frequently don't get back until late, and then I have work to get done. In middle school and high school, though, I used to nap every day after school/after whatever activities I had. I just couldn't adapt to that early start schedule. Not excited about dealing with it soon in the real world, but hopefully my circadian rhythm has changed enough since then that I'll adapt.

How long do your naps usually range in time for? - 30 minutes to 5 hours. Probably 1.5-2 hours on average.

Do you have trouble falling asleep at night? - Yes. I have trouble relaxing/stopping thinking about things and falling asleep, and have had that issue for years. I started playing Pokémon before bed for 15 minutes or so a couple of years ago, though, and I found that it helped a lot, so I try to do that when I have a chance.

Do you have trouble staying asleep? - Not generally, though I sometimes have really vivid dreams and wake up feeling exhausted. I do sometimes wake up in the middle of the night, but I generally fall asleep again pretty quickly and without much trouble.

Do you take anything to aid you in falling asleep and/or staying asleep? - No. I don't really want to start taking medications for sleep, and most of the ones I've seen seem to assume that you have time to sleep for eight hours, which I don't.

I'm truly nocturnal. I work third shift five times a week, and even the two days I'm off, I still am up all night. Though I still have a social life and, you know, human things to do. So I don't sleep very much. Usually a few hours from mid morning to mid afternoon. Usually something like from eight to one. Then I do my things for the day. I usually have one day a week, usually Sunday, where I'm asleep all day, for like, ten plus hours, to catch up.

Oh look, another sleep thread.

How many hours of sleep did you get last night?
Around 6.

How many hours of sleep do you normally get a night?
On a good day, 5 or 6. If I sleep late, I wake up early, and if I sleep early I wake up even earlier, so I never get that full 8 hours everyone talks about.

How many hours of sleep do you need to get in order to function properly?
Since high school I've been good on about 4+ hours of sleep. I never found lack of sleep an issue - quality over quantity and all that.

Did you take any naps during the day prior to falling asleep last night?
Yes, during a car ride home (I was the passenger, ofc).

Do you normally take naps throughout the day?
Sometimes.

How long do your naps usually range in time for?
Depends. Sometimes I can nap for two minutes and feel energized when I wake up, sometimes I nap for 10-20 minutes, if I have the time.

Do you have trouble falling asleep at night?
Rarely. Unless I had caffeine during the day.

Do you have trouble staying asleep?
Rarely, unless I had caffeine during the day. Seriously, caffeine is a ♥♥♥♥♥. I don't even ingest it intentionally, every time I have trouble falling asleep it's because I accidentally ordered a drink that had caffeine in it and didn't know until I tried falling asleep. The quality of the little sleep I am able to get after ingesting caffeine is just terrible, every time, and often comes with a headache, too.

Do you take anything to aid you in falling asleep and/or staying asleep?
No, never.

Last night, I got around six hours of sleep. The amount of rest I have all depends on how tired I feel, really. Some days, it'd be only about three to four hours, and as for others, it could take up to eight hours, and sometimes, even ten. I only need around two to three hours of sleep to function properly, and as for naps, I definitely do take them. =) I have trouble falling asleep every now and then, but when I do, I'd usually take out my 3DS and play games, which helps making me feel more tired. From time to time, I'd also watch some videos on my tablet or phone, or just simply chat with people on Skype.
