just how much can you sleep??

hi:) I think if he is not that tired sleeping for 15 hrs a day is too much, because the normal hours of sleep is only 7-9 hrs a day, if you're boyfriend is always like that perhaps he have sleep disorder and should consider seeking professional consultation.

If one man sleeps 15 hours,then he will alive only 9 hours per day. One should require only 6 to 8 hours sleep per day. Do you know our energy consumes more in sleeping than we are awake. I recently heard in a quiz that a man who never sleeps. I was astonished when I heard this question. He is CEO of City Bank. One should have to sacrifice in order to win in your life. As you study the biography of sucess person they will sleep only few hours. Our Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan sleeps only 3 to4 hours a day. He says it is enough. His wife will turn off alarm while he sleeping . Be a hardworking person and sucess will follow you.

I definitely don't think that I could sleep for 15 hours. I don't think that I could get anywhere near that. I usually just sleep about 8 or 9 hours, at the most. Sometimes, I will only get 6 or 7, but I try not to get less than that.

I don't know how can your boyfriend sleep for 15 hours. If I sleep less than 6 hours I feel tired, if I sleep more than 10 hours I feel worse. I usually sleep eight hours everyday the most, depending on the weather or the stress of my body.

15 hours? That's very long. Too much sleep can even cause headaches sometimes, right? I remember someone told me before about a research. It is about the life span of people and their sleep time. It says, if a person will sleep less than or more than, I'm not sure if its 7 or 7.5 or 8 hours, that person will die earlier. I think you should advise your bf not to take very long hours of sleep.

how does he do this?15hours ! For me ,maybe 10hours is the longest! some people say sleeping is good for skin , by the way , i guess your bf's skin must be good! Have a nice day:)

Hi chiyosan! Wow, 15 hours! Doesn't he get headache from it? I wouldn't be able to do that! Even if have a hangover, I would still not be able to sleep that long! At most would be 10 hours, and that's only if I have a hangover. ^^ On ordinary days, 6-8 hours of sleep is okay for me. Eight is already too long actually. If I'm tired, I only need eight hours to recover. Beyond that gives me a sluggish feeling.

during my teenage years, i was also able to sleep that long. i can also sleep the whole day like 13-16 hours long. sleeping is one of my hobbies way back when i was a teen that's why i sleep so much. but that changed when i started to have my own family and a baby to take care with. from 13-16 hours of sleep, it now becomes 6-8 hours also.

I can sleep for up to 18 hours if not more if I wanted to. When I get depressed I sleep a lot. I've slept for about 36 hours before. It's not hard if your upset.

I have also seen my bf sleep for 15 hours, sometime he can even go for 16 when the temperature is really nice and conducive to sleeping and especially when he has had a 12 hour duty the day before. I always get mad at him when he over sleeps, I feel it so not normal..lol! Anyway, 6-7 hours is already fine with me. But there are really times that I can sleep to up to 9 hours, that's after a very busy and stressful day!

I think this really depends. I sleep for long hours. It is because my work is at nights when everyone else is already asleep. This makes my body grow more tired than the bodies of those who work on normal hours. The hours of sleep is not really the issue here. It is actually the quality of sleep that counts. One of these things that compose the quality of sleep is the time of sleep. Then, it is also the sleep whether it is to refresh, or recharge, to recuperate, or out of desperation due to over fatigue. These kinds of sleep are different. I would always like to sleep when my wife starts nagging. That is quality sleep for me.

The longest sleep I had was around 12 hours. That was the time when I just cam back from a three day very tiring outing in the mountains. I do believe that having not slept much during those days made my body automatically adjust to pay my sleep deficit. I don't know but I usually sleep long hours when I am tired and when the weather is very suitable for sleeping especially those cold rainy days. But on average, I sleep around 6 to 7 hours a day and I do feel it isn't enough.

My partner is able to sleep long hours too. He loves to sleep. I need much less sleep that he does. For me longer sleeping is just waste of time. I prefer sleeping as long as my body needs and no more.

Same here, the longest I've slept was like 9 hours but most of the time I sleep about 7-8 hours. I can never sleep beyond 9 or 10 hours. Also, I can only sleep at night, I can never sleep in the day because I usually get a headache afterwards when I get up. My friends take short naps and they can sleep for half a day. I guess we're all different and have our own unique sleeping patterns that suits our bodies.

Last night, I think I slept about 8 hours? Maybe less. I often sleep about 7; 8 hours I think. But I'll be honest...I would prefer to sleep more, or be able to sleep more. I'd like to sleep ten hours per night; but this so rarely happens. After a time I am awake, and feel I can't possibly sleep any longer. So I just get up. The strange thing being that after a few hours I feel tired. If I;d had 10 hours, perhaps this wouldn't happen! I like to have lots of energy and keep going, but my sleep doesn't provide me with this. Mind you; maybe my sleep is not deep or good enough. I don't know.

Hi chiosan, I too could not think that people could sleep so long until I did it myself December/January. In our country specially in the North East part of the country the the two months Dec. and Jan. are too cold. After doing mylot till late night going to the bed and slipping into the warm quilt is something you would hate to come out even if a very urgent work has come up. When things were normal and fogs were covering whole area I slept until it was 11 O'clock. This is the record. Generally I get up at 7 in the morning to prepare for the following day;s works.

It depends on how I feel. If I'm miserable I may not get any. While other times 10 -14 hours doesn't seem that impossible. This is usually due to me either letting my sugar drop too low, or due to me taking a pain pill. How I feel directly impacts how much I sleep. And even after sleeping such long hours, sometimes it's like I can't wake up despite my efforts to do so. I really do enjoy sleeping. A little too much sometimes.

haha..my niece can sleep as much as your boyfriend did! Seriously she is very good in sleeping. She can sleep and willing to do more than that. Even if we asked her to get up but she will just ignore us. For me 4 hours is the least and 8 hours is much better. I wonder too how they can handle to sleep that much but I am very sure it is not difficult to do so especially for those who really like to sleep.(^^)

wow does he wake up and sleep back or sleeps 15 hrs straight
