How Much Sleep Do you guys need???

How much sleep do you need in order to be fully functional the next day?

Personally, I'd say its around 10-12 hours at least. Even after about 12 hours I wake up, but still feel like sleeping for another hour or two.

I've been getting by on 5.5-5.75 hours of sleep Monday to Friday for about the past month. I can honestly say I can't handle it.

This morning I had a dream that I woke up and checked the clock, and it was 6:05, which is about when I usually get my sorry *** out of bed, but, like always "I'll just lie there for another 5 min." I always fall asleep again. I ended up waking up (this time for real, not in the dream), freaked out that I'll be late(since I assumed I fell asleep after seeing that it was 6:05), checked the clock beside my bed, and it was still 5:40.

WTF???

I coudln't fall asleep after that, I was thinking too much about the dream I had that I woke up.
I was actually considering that I went back in time for a sec, too.

For so long, like 4 months, I'd go to bed at 3, and be up at 6:30 for work. But Saturday I wouldn't wake up till usually 1 or 2 sometimes.

Not my fault, try having a chinese mother who wakes up @ 8:30am every morning and either yells or sings at the dogs and cooking with a chinese meat cleaver while Fairchild TV is blasting in the background.

The only way I can get sleep is:
1. Move out permanently
2. Not come home
3. Have no life and be in bed by 10pm 7 days a week.
4. Die

:cry: I don't wanna die

exactly why you said when your younger your body needs to use energy to grow and you normally use energy when awake moving around and stuff so in order to grow the body needds to sleep more and you have to stop doing things so that energy can be redirected... when your older you don't grow so energy has to be burned off with activity so therefore your wanting to be awake more... and blah blah balh etc etc

To add to that.. when you get old, you don't wanna sleep as much cuz you want to enjoy life as much as you can b4 your time is up...
