I only need about 5-6 hours naturally, any more than that and I feel sluggish and a bit discombobulated lol. I get tired early though, so I like to be in bed by 9-9:30pm and resting my back and legs for a bit before I actually go to sleep. I have to make myself stay awake a bit longer or I’ll drop off to sleep and do that thing where I wake up and think, “oh that was a good sleep, I wonder what time it is?” and it’s 1am! Then I get really cranky because I know I can’t get much more and I’ll be stuck trying to be quiet in a house of sleeping people lol.Otherwise I frequently sleep in a kind of split shift, where I get 3 hours then get up, check on the kids, security camera etc and then go back to bed and get a couple more eventually. I used to get really bummed over the whole “people need to sleep for 8 hours” thing until I accepted that this is my “natural” and it works for me.
Do you feel like you get enough sleep?
