          8 hours. Being self-employed, I don't use an alarm clock and just get up whenever my body tells me to get up, and that seems to average out to a hair over 8 hours of sleep.

          I sometimes think I could do myself good work-wise to cut that back a bit but screw it. I like sleep and I hate alarm clocks.

              Good for you! Self-employed too but utterly overworked - I get 4-5 hours of sleep during the week and I catch up with 8-10 during the weekend.

                I envy anyone who can sleep 8 hours. i dont know why the fvck even if I go to bed at say 12:00 or 1:00 am I am up before 6 or 7am. I have tried taking melatonin which I buy at the health food store and yes it does ease you to sleep, but i am still getting up early even on weekends.

                  This thread has given me pause to stand back and think about things. Being a recovering drug addict, I can remember times in my life with certain drugs when I would average 14+ hours of sleep a day. Then I remember other times when, due to different drugs and/or working at conventional jobs, I would average less than 6.

                  Now I get a nice natural 8 hours.

                  Life is good.

                    4 to 6. Sometimes more, but that is probably the average.

                        The reason the attacks go down is because we gain 1 hour since the clock goes back at 2:00 am. So instead of let's say 10,000 heart attacks/24 you get 10,000/25 which will lower the average for the day.

                          study is done based on 24hrs. they claim extra hour of sleep reduces the bodies stress level thus reducing the stress on the heart and heart attacks. pretty interesting study IMO they case filed it over several years.

                                  Pico I bet your shower comes on automatically and sets to the perfect water temperature, I picture you in one of those high tech future homes. I might have to do a toon on your crib later!

                                      That's because alcohol screws up your sleeping pattern.

                                              None today...got released from work to go home early this morning so made the 4 hour drive back over the mountain and decided not to sleep 2 hours before the games begin. You can damn well bet that I will sleep a solid 12 hours once the games are over
                                              Usually average 8-9 hours a night
