How many hours should you stay up before going to sleep.?

It really depends on your own needs - some people take naps during the day, others just naturally need more or less sleep.  I have a friend who could sleep 12-16 hours a day if she let herself.  If you find yourself sleeping more than you want, you should be able to slowly change your sleep patterns to something that works better for you.

your body is still partially asleep. they say it takes a few hours after you get up before your fully awake and alert.

Body need 7-9 hours on average -- If you are getting less then that once in a while that will not hurt you. But the sleep you do get is it consistent - if you wake up a lot during rest then there might be a problem

9 hours is actually a very healthy amount to sleep. If you can, why not? 6 hours is too little

You may not be getting enough sleep.  It's a common misconception that everyone needs 8 hours.  Some people need more and some need less.  Try going to bed earlier.

8 hours is recommended, but it really depends on each person. Some people can function properly with 5-6 hours and some can not. You should try sleeping less than 8 hours and see how much sleep you need.

well that all depends on when they have to get up.\n if your child has to be awake at 6 shoot for 9 or so\nPersonally i would give them 8 hours 10 if they have ISTEP or an assesment test. because no one needs more than 10 hours of sleep unless they are bed-ridden or a cat (and even then they dont NEED it)

Most people recommend at least 7 1/2  to 8 hours.  It depends also how old you are, sometimes older people get by with less sleep.  Look at it this way, if you get a certain amount of sleep then wake up, and you still feel like crap, you need more sleep.  Most important too is if you wake up in the middle of the night, DON'T look at the clock, it will psyche you out and you won't fall back asleep as fast.  Also try to go to to bed and wake up at the same time every day, or at least don't vary the sleep/wake up times by more than 2 hours (for example if you normally get up at 7am, don't sleep in longer than 9am, regardless of the time you went to bed), that's the maximum difference your body can take. Also don't drink ANYTHING closer than 3 hours before you hit the sack.

Everyones sleep pattern is different: People who are 'Larks' are up before the sun, yet half asleep around 9pm. Those who are 'Owls' are the life and soul of the party well into the early hours, but are like the living dead if forced to get out of bed before 11am or later. Some people need a lot of sleep, while others can manage on 3 or 4 hours. There really is no good or bad concerning sleep. Provided no drugs are used, and you feel all right, your body and mind will let you know when to sleep and when to be awake.

Most of the people keep thinking that human being needs eight hours per day of sleep time. New researches have found that the perfect time to get really full filled is 7 hours. (Tibetans monks sleep just 4). So, let's say you want to wake up at 6 a.m. to get jogging and hour back home take a shower and get ready for being at the office at 9 a.m. The best time you can go to bed is 11 p.m.

everybody is different. I found out that some people can get by with 6 hours while others need 10 (average 8.) I'm in the 10 hour range, so I have to sleep around 10-10:30.

Ideally if you could take a nap would be the best.\nget off at 6pm, I would stay awake till like 12 or 1 am then get up at 7 or 8 then try an take a 2 hr or so nap at 3. \nLearn to take naps, get up earlier and then take a 1 to 2 hr nap before you have to go in to work.

It partly depends on what time you go to sleep. If you are already getting 8 hours of sleep a night then by all means wake up earlier and get some exercise. You will find after a short time you will have more energy thoughout the day and will probably be less tired at the end of your work day. Newer more comprehensive studies have shown that you shouldn't really get more than 7 1/2 hours of sleep anyways. 8 hours of sleep is excessive and can actually shorten your life. If you're only sleeping 6 to 7 hours a night then definately don't skip sleep to exercise you'll wear yourself out and possibly injur yourself after a while.

Ilike to go up to bedroom about 10.30 read or watch a bit of television for about an hour just me in silence as I have to have some me chill time first then sleep. In the morning I wake at 7.30 but get up at 8 o'clock. It is important to relax body before you go to sleep to get a good nights one and also to wake up gently so you are getting ready for the day.\nI have to have 8 to 9 hours every night.
