Sleeping habits
Discussion
How many hours do you get in? 
Apparently, some can survive on 4 hours a night. Personally, I have to get at least 7 which generally means going to bed at 11ish and getting up a 6am.
I can do a stint on PH well into the early hours but generally only at weekends.
But I do find that I need less sleep in the summer.
Do you reckon you can train yourself to not need as much sleep?

At a ripe old age of 24, I need 7 hours nowadays. But I used to sleep 5 or 6 hours max when I was 17-18. I woke up naturally after that.
I'm a bit older than 24 but I think your pattern seems familiar.
Well life starts wearing out your batteries, doesn't it?
As an aside, who's the cool moggie in your profile pic, Lazyitus? He/she's got the right idea!!!

She is our faithful puss called 'fudge'.
Strange creature really, you turn your back for 5 seconds and she appears in the most strange places.
After this picture was taken, I bent down to pick up my cup of tea, turned back round and there she was, up a ladder cleaning the upstairs windows. Odd.
About 4 hours, I used to sleep more during the day when I worked nights, although it was always short periods three times a day.
But then I crash for 12 hours about 3 times a year.
Can't do the clubbing all night quick shower, hours sleep on the coach then work all day, six times a week anymore
can't do it one night a week anymore.

I go through various phases of sleep requirements. Strange I know, sometimes just need to snatch an hour or two here or there. I think spending 8 weeks
cramming for my University exams every year for 4 years between the hours of 10pm and 6am when it was quiet really screwed my brain chemistry up. I went to the docs after and got some sleeping pills but it's never been the same since.
Sleeping pills are bad news though, a much better regimen is 5-HTP, melatonin and valerian root.
