<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Sleep deprevation question."]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/54.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Sleep deprevation question. For someone my age. I'm 17. Now my question is this: If I wake up at 2 in the afternoon
And stay awake till between 2 and 4 the next morning is 8 to 10 hours sleep enough?

I can't find anything on the Internet that states how long you should sleep based on how long you are awake. All help welcome.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3281472.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3281472.page GMT Sleep deprevation question.

I'd say it's fine for the average teenager, seeing as though it'd be about 12 hours awake and 12 hours asleep.

Though in my currently sleep deprived state, I could have completely misread your post.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3281479.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3281479.page GMT Re:Sleep deprevation question. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3281490.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3281490.page GMT Sleep deprevation question. My sleeping patterns seem to be in synch with Avatar's.
I just don't know anymore what is what.
Am considering trying to stay awake through 'til tonight.
But when I have done that I still don't sleep until 5:0am.
Am not likely to stay awake anyway

Basically I think if you are healthy not doing drugs etc your body will tell you when to rise and when to sleep.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3281556.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3281556.page GMT Sleep deprevation question. Even on weekends I can't stay asleep longer than 6 hours..
But I would say Chibbi is correct...your body will wake you up when it's ready ti be up...unless an alarm clock does it first.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3281566.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3281566.page GMT Sleep deprevation question.
The amount of sleep one needs is very much an individual thing. I detested Maggie Thatcher's politics but hated her for getting by on 4 hours of kip! no fair! ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3281585.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3281585.page GMT Sleep deprevation question.

I don't know Chibbi...after a while the days start to blur together...
And I've been running on 4 maybe 5 hours a night ( and a ton of coffee) for over 20 years...figure one day my brain will just implode...but for now..I'm dandy.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3281614.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3281614.page GMT Sleep deprevation question.
My work was a day late because I seriously had no idea what the date was. For a while I even thought it was still March even though it was May.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3281635.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3281635.page GMT Sleep deprevation question. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3281854.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3281854.page GMT Sleep deprevation question.

...right?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3281897.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3281897.page GMT Sleep deprevation question. You don't look so good in your avatar photo!

fwiw I look a bit like that too, certainly feel like it. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3282235.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3282235.page GMT Sleep deprevation question. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3282242.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3282242.page GMT Sleep deprevation question.
I find I need less sleep if I stick to a regular sleeping pattern that involves sleeping when it is dark and being awake when it is light.

Another cool perk of getting older is that you need less sleep as you age. 5 years ago as a teenager, I needed 9 hours minimum or I was a cranky zombie.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3282258.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3282258.page GMT Sleep deprevation question. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3283300.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/394777/3283300.page GMT
