how many hours of sleep do you need?

My ideal sleep time is from 12am to 9am, so I guess 9 hours. For some reason, I tend to feel very sleepy if I wake up before 9am, even if I have slept for 8+ hours.

A bad habit I need to change is procrastinating sleep, it would be 10pm, and I would think "Hm I still have enough time to do other stuff (Like homework, hobbies etc), then I blinked and it would be past 12am. I am worried staying past midnight would be a slippery slope that I would sleep later and later, so I'm trying to fix that habit.

My usual sleep times are from 11 PM to 7 AM, so 7 or 8 hours of sleep. I am most active in the mornings and I like to wake up early to have most of my work done during those hours so I can chill in the afternoon. Sometimes I like to shift one hour and do 10PM-6AM, especially in the summer when the sun rises very early, and enjoy the silent house when everyone else is still asleep and I can get ready for the day, then draw or write in peace.

i try to get at least 8-9 hours of sleep every day before school so i can feel energised throughout the day  !! if i get less than that im usually tired and cannot function properly 

on friday and the weekends tho, i get at least 10-12 hours bc i need a good nights rest before the weekend starts

my body wants to sleep from like 1-2 to 9-10 am. i feel best with 9 hours of sleep but i can make it on 8 or 7 just fine. what sucks is that i can't sleep until 10 every day with work and school and everything in the world waking up earlier than me. so i end up getting 6 ish some nights, only get good sleep when i'm lucky, and rely on caffeine more than i'd like

I absolutely can't function well unless I get at least 7 hours of sleep, which is pretty bad for me because I absolutely hate sleeping haha. Not only is the experience usually really poor for me, but I also wish I could function on less sleep so I could have more hours in my day to do stuff, you know?

On weekdays, I usually manage on about 7H of sleep, trying to fall asleep before midnight when I have to wake up at 7AM.
Left to my own devices, I'll end up going to sleep at 4AM and wake up around noon +/- an hour, so more around 8.

But! Most of the time, I'll end up sleeping more about 6 hours on weekdays, and 9-10 on the weekends.
Four hours is scary, I hope you do 2 cycle of those a day.

how many hours i need? honestly, kind of a lot... id say 8-10 hours?

do i ever get that much? not really, sadly. i suffer from chronic insomnia, so getting to sleep and staying asleep can be a challenge.

im not sure how yall do it on 4 or less hours of sleep... i used to do that as a teenager, but now, its agony.
