How Many Hours of Sleep Do I Need?

Its the Summer timeand no school, sothat means I can get all the sleep I need but how much do I need. What I need 2 know is le is 6 hours to little sleep or is 8 hours is what I need. Im 17 if that has somethig to do with anything

Ideally, anyone should be getting 8 hours of sleep a night.

6 hours is still perfectly fine though. You're not going to collapse and die from sleep deprivation or anything.

Eight is generally the magical number. You can get by with six though it might make for a bit more of a rough morning. Anything bellow six seems to have some negative consequences, for me at least.

6-8. anyless is bad and any more is to much.

Just sleep until you don't feel tired..not like you're doing anything where it matters whether you're tired or not..

The amount of sleep you need depends on how old you are I've been told. Teenagers usually needing about 10 and older people needing about 5-6. Of course, nobody really sticks to that I'm sure. I generally went to bed around midnight in High School and woke up at 6:30.

6 to 8 hours of sleep is recommended for anyone really.

Just do what I did. Stay up until you fall asleep at your desk or whereever you're at. There's no reason to have an official "sleep-time". This does seem to confuse other people though. Like sometimes I was up at 7:30am playing computer games (having not gone to sleep yet) and there were cans of beer on my desk, so they were like, "isn't it a bit early to be drinking?" So I'd tell them, "Isn't it a bit late for you to still be up?" At which point I'd open another can of beer and continue playing.

8 hours of sleep is good enough.

It has been scientifically proven that 7 hours is the ideal and healthiest amount of sleep needed.

I believe there's a way to train your body to go straight into REM sleep, so you would only need about 2 hours of sleep per day

It varies from person to person. If you screw with your subconsciousness enough, you can live off of a mere 2 hours of REM sleep per 24 hour period. Then again, for all the effort it's worth you'd be better off sticking with the archetypical 8 hour night.Setsa
