i aim for 7 but usually come up with whatever, not in school this quarter and still job hunting so i have nothing to structure around, other than my ambition to learn shit before i get in the class.
easiest way to get some natural sleep is to work out, and meditate. clear your mind. try not to depend on drugs to help you sleep

L-tryptophan, an amino acid found in many foods, works pretty well. Boosts your mood, too, as it converts to serotonin in your brain. Must be taken with B vitamins.

Milk(and cheese) contains trytophan which is the precursor of serotonin. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that plays a role in sleep and emotion. If I have trouble sleeping I read a boring book.

5 or 6 hours normally but I stop drinking alcohol day before yesterday and I've not been to sleep yet. Thats standard when I've been drinking heavy. I hate this part of getting sober.

7-8 hrs usually. I've grown out of being able to sleep for a whole day unless ive missed a whole night or two of sleep.
I like sleeping in too, fuck waking up, im not a morning person at all.

I aim for 8 hours each night, but usually end up with about 6-7 unless I have no school or work the next day, then I sleep anywhere from 5-14 hours depending on circumstances
