How many hours

[DeaverTex]

I get about 7 hours of horizontality a night. Most of that is sleep, but it varies night to night. I rarely remember dreams unless I get a full night's sleep, but I know they happen. The ones I do remember all qualify as weird -- wandering in endless building corridors looking for somebody, but not really scary or anything. Sometimes they'll involve an unrecognizable version of a place from my past -- those tend to stop if I somehow manage to figure out the location.

I used to remember my dreams but since I had surgery in 2010 I can not ever remember any dreams. I wake up and I know I've just been dreaming but can not, for the life of me, remember what my dream was about. I really think it has something to do with having the surgery and whatever they gave me to "knock me out". I would be curious to know if this has happened to anyone else.
As far as how many hours sleep I get, I work 3 nights a week. When I work and have to sleep during the day I usually only get about 4 - 5 hours sleep. When I'm not working and sleep at night like everyone else I get about 8 or 9 hours sleep.

6 hours on average probably. And I usually remember my dreams. They can be vivid. For example, last night I was in the Palace of Versailles, running like a maniac from an assassin. I dream weird things.

5-6 hours average, I always feel tired, but kids... Lol

I don't remember very many dreams ever.

Since I quit my last job, I get way more sleep and now sleep 7-8 hours/night. I have also returned to having vivid dreams again. That job was sucking the soul out of me bit by bit.

5-6 hours average. I remember my dreams all the time sometimes in complete detail, They range from weird and warped to nightmares to just relaxing. The ones I hate the most are the dreams of working. Have woke up feeling and thinking like I just worked eight hours and now I get to go to work. Would rather have a nightmare.

On a working night, 10 hours. On an idle day, I can top 14 hours. But that's due to medication.

Unfortunately what the drugs can't prevent - and may accentuate - are night terrors. Basically extremely vivid dreams, very nasty, night after night after night, that are so real that they spill over into waking hours and can even result in what feels like a collapsed lung.

I'm pretty screwed up.

8 during the week and 10 on weekends. I love sleep!!! I almost always remember my dreams. They are vivid and can be wacky at times. Sometimes they are things I am worried about other times they make no sense at all.

I usually get between 6 and 7 hours. I can fall asleep quite easily but my problem is always waking up in the middle of the night and then not getting back to sleep. I dream all the time and usually can remember the dreams. Some of my dreams are exhausting. For ex. last night I was decorating my house for Christmas and I was really working hard - lol. But my weird dream that I have alot is about Frankenstein. Would love to know the meaning behind that. Must have seen it when I was young and it has just stayed with me. Oh and at first I couldn't watch The Walking Dead at night because it would always lead to zombie dreams. I would have to dvr it and watch it in the daylight the next day. Now I can watch it at night all of a sudden - lol.

On school nights I get about 8 hours of sleep and on the weekends about 10 hours. I do have dreams, but a lot of times when I wake up from them I don't remember them much.
