Okay, so, I was wondering how many hours of sleep do you get each night?

What is the amount needed for someone who is 18?

I go to sleep anywhere from 11pm to 3am and I get up between 9am and 12pm. Throughout the night, I wake up at different times, roll over and usually fall back asleep within five minutes.

Anyway, it seems no matter how much sleep I get, I still tend to wake up feeling well, sleepy. Is there any real reason for this? Or am I just a lazy person?

Without an alarm, I'll sleep for 14 hours straight. With a little disciple, it's 7-8 hours a night.

It probably means you just need more sleep. Teenagers need a lot of sleep...like 10-12 hours i think.

I sleep about 8 hours, I'm 22 though. When I was 18, I slept about 10 or 11 hours....

My sleep patterns change often because I'm manic-depressive and when I'm depressed I can not wake up not matter what I do. I'm just tired and want to sit or lay down and not move. Are you depressed? otherwise, just try getting more sleep and don't drink caffiene or eat sweets before bed becuase it's disrupts sleep. keep a regular sleeping pattern. Same time to bed and same time up. it helps too.

I go about 10 to 12 hours a night, during the summer. During school, 9 to 10 hours. With naps during the day.

The amount of sleep needed varies for each individual.
