Devil Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 7 hours most nights. But that depends on how stressed I am in work, if we start a big project I've been known to get less than 4 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 Around 6 to 7 hours per day on average. I probably should be getting more sleep, but I guess the stresses that life brings and some of my commitments stop me from sleeping for longer.

Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted April 12, 2023 Subscriber Share Posted April 12, 2023 This has been posted before way back 4 hours does me, then I normally doze off and on, now that I am retired I will also cat nap during the day on the sofa. This 4 hours sleep pattern goes back to my army days during tours of duty in Northern Island, the majority of the 5-month tours consisted of working (patrols, mobile/static, guard duties) of 4 hours on and then 4 hours off on a 24-hour shift, it became ingrained in your body as a natural thing even today. When I was working it was a pain in the arse, go to sleep then woke up 4 hours later, and then it would take me a good hour to get back to sleep.

Administrator Stan Posted April 12, 2023 Administrator Share Posted April 12, 2023 Solid 8 hours for me most days. Go to bed around 11pm, missus' alarm wakes me up at 7am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted April 12, 2023 Subscriber Share Posted April 12, 2023 One thing is I don't need is an alarm clock, when I was working I was up at around 04.30 in the morning but because of my memory alarm clock I always wake up after 4 hours kip, even nowadays.

Subscriber Pyfish+ Posted April 12, 2023 Subscriber Share Posted April 12, 2023 Generally 8-9 hours for me depending on what I'm up to on the evenings. Sometimes I can be gaming with friends late on but I still try and get 8 hours if I can. I can sleep anywhere and everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Viva la FCB+ Posted April 12, 2023 Subscriber Share Posted April 12, 2023 I wish I could get 8 or 9 but its usually closer to 7 all week. I catch up on weekends for usually 9 or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm doing a demo job at the hospital at the moment. I was going to get into site management a while back, but fuck that. I've seen fellas literally lose all their hair doing that job. I don't even like supervising. The stress, for me, isn't worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnivore Chris Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 At the moment I go to sleep about 11(sometimes 12), wake up at 2, go back to sleep, wake up at 4, then 5, then the alarm clock goes off at 6. This probably explains my anger issues at work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The contracts managers at our place basically live on the road as we will literally take on work anywhere. It's mentally draining to be fair, if I could get out I would but I could never find a job that would pay me as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Gonzo Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 4-6, but I voted 6 because I average closer to 6 hours of sleep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 Now that I think of it since it is now Spring and DST, I’ve been staying much later because the sun sets at 8pm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Coma+ Posted April 13, 2023 Subscriber Share Posted April 13, 2023 7-8 for me. Get up at 5AM and I'm not a morning person so I really need to get to bed by 9 as it takes me an hour or so to fall asleep. I could function on 6 hours a night and have done before but I'm grouchy. I could sleep 12 hours on the weekends if I had time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber JoshBRFC+ Posted April 14, 2023 Subscriber Share Posted April 14, 2023 6-7 hours on average. Any less isn’t healthy and I feel tired during the day. I don’t understand those people who say they only sleep 4 hours to get more done… bla bla I’m massive and go to the gym type of people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know a woman who gets up at like 5am to do a workout before she goes to work. Granted, she's a bodybuilder or some shit, but it still sounds mental to me.

But I only do cardio so I'm not getting big and strong, I'm just keeping fat off me the best I can & trying to give myself energy to get through the week.
