    Ugh.. I've only been getting about 3 a night lately... I think I've got insomnia. :(


    To feel truly rested, 9 or 10 hours.

    depends,,, like now..

    we are all here obssessed/possessed with lady lunas spirit..

    3 four hours of sleepin while layin in bed for 7 or 8 over a few days ,,, sometimes can be as rewarding as a solid 6 hours sleep for a month..

    Ive been good for a few weeks now and can sleep 8 hours and all is well.

    For a while i wasnt sleeping at all and that was nuts. A day seemed like a week.

    And staying up for long long times isnt very productivr either.

    truly rested? 9-11. 12 or more and I'm tired all day long from oversleeping (though it is a nice indulgence every now and then). I usually get 5-8 though, and can function perfectly normally on 5. 4 or less and I get a little (ok really) weird and shaky

    Well, to me it feels that my tiredness results from the time I get up. The earlier I wake up, the more tired I feel. Which is bad because I end up feeling like I wasted my morning.

    But I think for me to be well rested I'd say between 8-10 hours.
