D. S. Veteran Posted January 3, 2009 Veteran Share Posted January 3, 2009 I average probably about 7-8 hours of actual sleep, lately I've been finding it hard to actually get too sleep. For some reason every few months I'll have a week or two of slight insomnia.Something weird about my sleep patterns is I tend to wake up loads throughout the night, although this doesn't really effect me (don't feel tired in the day) and I seem to function pretty well with my 7-8 hours of waking/sleeping. Even tough you don't feel tired, you should consult a doctor about it. A Sleep Medicine specialist would be the best but they are extremely hard to find.

Jeffhou65 Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 I tend to try and sleep for 7 hours, no more no less. Too little or too much gives me a headache, and any more than 10 hours is an insta headache migraine thing.

bjoswald Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 I usually get around eight hours, but it never feels like enough. I'm in pretty good shape, eat a healthy breakfast and stay active throughout the day, but around 3 PM or so, I'm dog tired and feel like I need a nap. I feel like a 70-year-old trapped in a 25-year-old's body.
