I get 6-7, and I like to get 7.
6 and later a 30min nap is also good, but the nap isn’t always that well compatible with work. I do that quite often in summer when it’s too hot to sleep very well and I’m working from home.
Should be sleeping now, but the clock change from UTC+2 to UTC+1 is throwing me off at the moment.
Like 4 hours. Double that, or none, but no in between
I hate being a night owl but having to conform to a morning bird’s world. Talk about nuking productivity.
I take great pains to get the full 8 hours but this year I have been having trouble sleeping.
Usually somewhere between 9 and 12 hrs (disabled and not working for someone else, but have a micro farm to maintain)… it feels like such a massive waste of time because it’s never enough to feel rested. I used to go with the 4-8 hr thing and that was worse but the anxiety early in the morning really kept the energy up. And then led to panic attacks as an alarm clock. Woo was that fun for 3 solid years.
I don’t think any amount of sleep is enough, really (since childhood I’ve always tended to sleep a lot when my brain finally slows down enough), but I do know too little is super super bad for me.
Micro farm?
Yeah, I live in town on 0.2 acres. I’ve got a small flock of chickens, and a hydroponic garden in the works to use the entirety of my basement year round to provide most of my fresh food needs, and hopefully that of one or two people important to me, once it’s in full swing (it’s a very old house and the foundation is leaky, there’s not a lot I can do about it other than embrace it due to how it was built).
I don’t have a big yard, so the chickens have the bulk of it, and I can’t use the remainder for growing stuff because it doesn’t get direct sun, but I do better with controlled conditions like hydro anyway. I hate weeding, and the guesswork of watering dirt.
So far the garden consists of a sprout and seedling station (for eating and growing), several varieties of tomatoes and peppers that will be producing soon, some beans, peas, 2 types of mushrooms (grown on shredded cardboard), some herbs, and some asshole strawberries that hate me and refuse to grow. When I get the aquariums set up to breed guppies or minnows for my cats and turtle, (my neighbor was throwing out 3 55gallon tanks so I took them) I’ll be adding leafy greens and whatever else in an aquaponics setup.
I also keep colonies of crickets, mealworms, and a worm composter, for feeding the birds and making compost tea for nutrients.
I’m currently testing a bucket method for growing relatively large quantities of root crops in small spaces. I’ve had the idea for a while but I’m finally motivated to see if it works, and what it works for. If it does I’ll probably end up posting instructions on here somewhere. Probs slrpnk. Few months before I get results, or don’t, on the first round.
I wanted to sell this place and buy 40 acres with a shitty house, build up a real hobby farm/homestead, but everything started getting uncertain right around when I started looking, and I got real nervous about putting myself into a more precarious position, so I’m kinda stuck making this work for now.
8 hours every 3 days. Enhanced by stimulants. I wish I never had to sleep again. I deeply resent my own biology trying to force me to spend a third of my life in a damned bed doing nothing.
I’ve got !myalgicencephalomyelitis@lemmy.blahaj.zone and live my life in bed. As I don’t have to adhere to society’s timetables I sleep when I am sleepy and wake up when I’m done. I sleep 10-11 hours most days.
Once I had a really bad night where I basically didn’t sleep. The night after that I got 14 hours of sleep. I think that’s the longest I ever slept in my life.
I wish I was more in line with my family. It’s especially hard with aligning lunch and dinner. So in a way I actually am still tied to society’s timetable.
I get slightly less than 8 hours. My body wants more than 9 hours. I hate sleep, I hate being tired, I hate waking up, so I want 0 hours.
An hour max. I like sleeping during the night. (I’m sorry, I think I just became a dad)
I get about 7. Turns out I need closer to 9. When I do get enough sleep, the difference is pretty wild - my mood is better, WAY better. And my appetite is under control too, which is a nice bonus. But the only way to actually get those 9 hours is literally “eat-sleep-work”. Just ain’t enough time in the day.
Sleep app says avg 6.5h/day
I get about 7 hours ish, but I wish I could get 8 hours. It’s amazing how much an hour can do but I feel amazing on 8 hours in the morning but sometimes feel like a zombie on 7 hours.
6-7, 10-12
Not enough.
A lot more but baby.~6hrs pr. day.
Would like to get an hour or so more, but like another commenter wrote. Baby.
6ish, I’d like 8 but I can’t really fall asleep until after midnight unless I’m truly exhausted, then work means I usually need to be up around 7ish
