I usually get 5 - 6 hours. I wish I could sleep longer, but when I wake up, thats it! I almost never set an alarm and I just sleep as long as I can.

i think 6 hours is enough

I do not function well unless I have 8 hours.

You should generally get 6 - 8 hours of sleep per night. It varies based on the person, but try not to OVERsleep. That will end up making you feel groggy and gross throughout the rest of the day. Also, don't take laps longer than 20 minutes. If you get to REM sleep and then wake up in the middle, you will feel more tired than when you went to sleep.

6-8 hours

Sometimes I need 8 to 10 depending on what the days surrounding the sleep include events wise like how many hours of work or shopping or both and how much chasing my toddler are involved.

    At least: six hours, normally eight hours...Take naps when you need them.

I'm pretty useless unless I get 8 hours.  Anything less and I'm a zombie.
