When your schedule is busy, how many hours of sleep do you need?

I have always done better with 9 hours.

I usually wake up during the night and get on up for coffee.

If I get 7 hours, that's good!

I am not a sleeper. I probably get 6 to 7 hours a night if that, busy day ahead

or not.

If I get 7 hours of sleep, I'm happy!

When I was working until this past year, I got about 4-1/2.

Now, depending on how DH is doing I can still get only 5.

I NEED 7.

When my schedule was busy, sleep was not based on what I needed, but what I could squeeze in.

When I was in graduate school with some tight deadlines, I had to pull all-nighters many times.

In my workaholic days I had a long commute, and worked sometimes 60 hours a week!

In my much younger days I used to be able to go out dancing until two or three AM and then get up at 7:00 to go to work.  

Getting six to nine hours of sleep these days is a real luxury!  (Although my cats will wake me up at all hours when they feel like it.)

Still working. Weekdays I fall asleep at 9/9:30 pm. Up at 2am or so and do a few household things. Back to bed at 3:30 or so, up at 5:30 am.

Not ideal but I sleep when and how I can. I'm a night owl so the work week is tough on me.

I found the older I got, the less I could sleep. If I manage to sleep 6 hours, it has been an exceptionally good night. I cannot go to bed early, or I am wide awake by 3 or 4 a.m. Midnight is my favorite bedtime, and I am often up for the day at 5:00.

@ECBG  Wow, you are lucky to be able to sleep nine hours.

Even in my younger days I have never been able to sleep that long.  I get by with five hours. A good day I get six!
