Its said that a one atleast needs to sleep for 8 hours per day for a good health. I odnt think ?I need to sleep that much, I hardly sleep for abt 6 hours per day, I think my health is stil fine! What about you, how many hours do you sleep on an average, and do you think one nes to sleep of a minimum of 8 hours?

Sleep is really a delight . I enjoy sleeping and getting less than my quota of sleep really puts me off for the day.On an average I need 9 hours of sleep daily else I really become moody . Although I need 9 hours of sleep , during college in the hostel I tend to get average 8 hours of sleep which is okay. At home, during the vacations, I sleep for 11-12 hours.I have also been known to be awake for two days during examination time.

I only sleep for five to six hours on average, and I think that must be sufficient for me. We are all different in the hours we need to sleep.. I think a lot of it is down to diet, exercise, stress, metabolism, etc, and we all require different amounts. I feel fine... I get tired sometimes, but not that often. It's only really when I do something extra strenuous.

I usually prefer to sleep at least 7 hours/day but sometime I don't have time to get full rest because of busy schedule of my work .I think 7 hours/day sleep is good for health.

I think everyone is different and we all need different things. My husband can get by just fine with 6 hours of sleep, but I need 8 to be in a good mood =) He can never understand why I am so tired if I don't get enough sleep, I don't either, I just know I am too tired =) So I try to get 8 hours of sleep every night.
