We're told we should get 8 hours sleep a night, realistically how many of us actually do?

Can you survive on less or do you need more?

Hubby used to survive on 4-5 a night, then chemo happened and he gets at least 12 now. I'm not happy unless I get a solid 8

6-8 for me but I sleep less in the summer - so I sometimes make it up by having an afternoon nap.

8 hours in bed but wake up multiple times so probably 4-5 of actual sleep. I used to play a lot of poker in casinos and could go 48 hours without sleep but I'm getting to old for that shit!

3-4 hours is a great nights sleep for me but it’s rare, usually a couple of broken hours. The few times I’ve managed an 8 hour sleep I have woken with a migraine or ridiculously sluggish and can’t seem to wake up properly at all.

8 hours feels a bit plucked out the air, like 5-a-day, but I do feel that most people probably don't get enough. I usually get 6ish a night and it's generally fine, with a nap every once in a while.

I saw a report recently - they're now saying 7 hours is recommended.

If we take the 8 hours as reccomendation, and just for talk sake, we start doing 8 hours from the age of 20, and we live till 80. We would have slept for 20 years

I go to sleep around 11pm and my little one wakes around 7am so I'm up as soon as she is wide awake. I'd say I get around 5 hours each night as I wake multiple times and it takes me forever to get back to sleep.

I'm always exhausted, so tired and like a walking zombie. If I get the chance to nap in the day I will but it doesn't make much difference.
