How much? when do you go to bed? wake up? how deep do you sleep? have any sleep aids?
Well, see I am on a medication that makes me extremely hyper all the type. An upper. Then my doctor put me on a downer which made me sleep perfectly. Now he put me on another medication instead, another downer Lunesta...but it doesnt work at ALL, so I stopped taking that and started taking Tylenol PM, which works...but I need to call him tomorrow and tell him to put me on a new medication. Although, I am going to tell him I just finished taking the sample of Lunesta and not mention the Tylenol PM. So I hope this gets all straightened out. Because as it stands, I go to bed at 7AM sleep to 1 PM...so my body is SO thrown off! Have you ever had any of these kinds of problems???

I'm thrown off too. Here it is almost 3am and I'm still awake. I'll probably wake up between 11am and 1pm. Which is bad. I need to get back into my work sleep schedule...bed by 1am, up at least by 9 (I'm not getting up at 7 to go nowhere).

Anyway, I like 10 hours of sleep best. And on Paxil I can pull that off no prob. Doesn't help me fall asleep though, just stay asleep.

It depends, and I'm somewhere on the light side of sleeping. I don't take anything to help me sleep.

Who knows when exactly I'll go to bed... it's 3am, and I'm wide awake as the day is long. I've been up since before 9am the day before, so I'm on my 18th hour of being awake (which is the standard for me). I can function on five hours of sleep, no problem. If I sleep for over eight hours, that's gonna make me really sluggish for the rest of the day.

I need 10 hours a day at least or I'm non-functional, and that's with the Provigil I take for whatever sleep disorder I have (no one can put a name on it - I just feel tired all the time for no apparant reason)

I think you 3 hour people are on meth! j/k ;)

I try to get at least 8 hours if I can help it...I usually go to bed around 1:30 a.m. and wake up anywhere between 10 and 11.

7 hours if i'm lucky. and I think i've taken a sleeping pill(simply sleep, tyenol pm, sleepinal..) every night for the past year. I'm like the male Anna.

I need at least 6 or 7 hours of sleep a night. On weekdays I go to bed at 9 or 10 and get up at 6:45. Once in awhile I use Alleve or Tylenol to help me sleep.

How deep I sleep depends on how tired I am or if i'm sick. This past winter, when I had the flu, I was really out a couple of times.

I usually get 7-8 hours of sleep. I go to bed around 10:30-11-ish. I wake up sometime around 7:30-8:00, depending on the time of classes, of course, but most days it's like that. I don't think I'm too deep of a sleeper, but sometimes I sleep hard, not often though. I don't take anything to make me sleep, unless I've taken an Aleve to help with some kind of pain, that makes me sleepy.

I need at least seven or eight hours of sleep to function normally. I think you need to tell your doctor to put you on the first sleep medication that made you sleep perfectly.

I usually get about 6 hours. Baby wakes me up at night to eat. The he wakes up at 7am. I really don't take naps during the day cause it makes me even more sleepy. Maybe one day I can sleep late again. I miss those days.

3:00 am until 11:00 am

Since I started working the 11pm to 7am shift, I don't get but about 5 hours of sleep. Its so hard for me to sleep in the daytime, and I get so sleepy at work every night. I've been taking a Tylenol PM every morning when I get home but I still wake up too soon.

Tylenol PM, Unisom, Aleve PM (all the PMs) basically any over the counter sleep aid is worthless. They all use diphenhydramine, the antihistamine found in Benadryl. It typically does cause drowsiness but it's unpredictable and rarely produces a full, quality sleep.

I'd suggest you talk to your doctor about a low dose of a benzodiazepine, preferably a short acting one such as Alprazolam. You can use this for a few days to a week until you "adjust" to your schedule.

In the meantime, you may wish to try an herbal supplement, such as Valerian Root, or Kava Kava. Both are very calming and promote sleep.

On average, I get about five to six hours of sleep a night. Lately, I have been noticing that I am feeling tired at an earlier time. I think I have gotten about seven hours of sleep during the last week or so. I am feeling more and more exhausted. I haven't a clue why that is! I work out and am eating healtheir now. Shouldn't I have more energy, or is there something wrong with me? *worried look*
