OK, for those of you who frequently take an hour or more to fall asleep, are you getting enough sleep? Do you like stay in bed for 10 hours so you can hopefully get enough sleep? Or do you wake up tired and need to drink lots of coffee?
I average about 6.5 - 7 hours per night (even though I usually spend 9 hours in bed). Which is enough for me to function but not enough to feel well rested. My stomach can't tolerate coffee at all, so I'm often tired.
during the week I get maybe 5 - 6 hours of sleep, not nearly enough! I'm usually sluggish in the mornings. on weekends I get to sleep in, and can easily sleep in til noon, which gives me 8 - 10 hours sleep. I feel physically better with more sleep, but feel guilty about 'wasting' so much time that I could have used to do something productive.
