If I go to bed when I'm tired and wake up naturally with no alarms etc it's usually right at 9 hours.

I said 7. I usually have 8 to 9 penciled in but that doesn't mean I'm asleep the whole time unfortunately.....

I assume I need 8, since that's what I get now that I'm retired. Apparently I was always a bit sleep-deprived when I was working.

I need 8, but seldom get more than 6.

After 5 my body actually begins to hurt and wakes up. I often get as little as 3 and sometimes as much as 6.
I can also have bouts of insomnia.
Nice thing about my sleeping habits is that I don't get jet lag

My sleeping habits vary, but one thing I know is that the "9-5" work routine is sabotaging my natural bio-rhythms and can't possibly be doing much good for me or any of us. Who says our bio-cycles coincide neatly with "day" and "night"? That's just society pulling the wool over our eyes. Work is slavery.

I need 7 hours, I prefer 8. I used to only need 6 hours regularly, but after I turned 45 or so, that wasn't enough anymore.

5 1/2 hours has worked perfectly for me for years. More and I am groggy all day.

4-5 hours, and no more. Every now and then when work demands me to stay available for 48-72 hours straight, I'll usually crash for 9-10. Then it's back to 4-5 hours a night.

There have been a number of long term studies of sleep requirements, and it is just as bad for your health to get too much as it is not enough. Sleep requirements vary a lot through childhood and adolescence, with 9 - 11 hours being normal. However once you get into your late twenties and onwards, the healthy optimal is between 6 and 7 hours a night. A 6 year study, released in 2002, of over 1 million subjects aged between 30 and 102 found a significant increase in mortality in those that slept an average of 8 hours or more a night (i.e. those that averaged 8 or more hours a night were more likely to die during the period of the study).
Personally, I get by on around 6.5 - 7 hours a night.Read my blog here.

5 hours seems to be my optimum. More than that and I'm groggy, less and I'm cranky.
Work variables can shift this. When I started working 14 hours a day, 5 hours became too little... but that's all the time I can spare for sleep.Even a broken clock is right twice a day. -
I am an athlete and train about 10 hours per week on average, depending upon the training/competition cycle I am currently in. I find that during lighter training cycles I sleep alot longer (and want to) than when I am training very hard. Regardless, the one thing I do know is that I always sleep very deeply. I think that how deep one sleeps is very important in the rest and recovery factor. A restless sleep is probably not worth much recovery at all.
Another factor during hard training is the need to wake up very early and hit the bricks or water...sleep is just not an option and can be put off for some other time...but on average, 8 hours would be the norm. -

Thank you for wishing me luck, but I find that the harder I work the luckier I get. Your kind of luck is not required. I guess that's why I get paid to do the things that I do...
Maybe you will have some more "wisdom" for us all...only time will tell...or the penal system.
