Alarm Clock and how you react to it?
sdedalus83:
I work nights, sleep in three 2 hour chunks, and get up to take care of every day things 5 hours before I need to leave for work. I have no need for an alarm clock.

So you're an alien?

^ Nope, it's definitely doable, but the intervals between snoozing are much shorter.

Yeah I know, the napping is more efficient, but it can lead to long term instability and crashing. Unless of course, you're one the lucky few that can pull it off. I can go months sleeping 5-6 hours a night, but eventually I crash and sleep for like 12 hours. Lucky people don't have that problem :(
I know a guy that sleeps 3-4 hours a night, and has for nearly his entire adult life.
I wish.

I used to do 2 to 3 hours on a consistent basis but the hallucinations and depression weren't worth it. My current sleep schedule is dictated more by my dog and roommate than any personal desire. I get up around 6 to let the dog out and around 8 to coordinate with the roomie. Honestly even 6 hours is more than I've ever felt necessary. I feel more rested after 4 to 6 hours of sleep and 2 to 3 hours of deliberate relaxation than after 8 to 12 hours of sleep.
