i hear that as long as you have 4 hours of deep sleep, then that is enough.

7-9 hrs depending on the person

When I'm exercising regularly I need at least 8

My guess is that it varies from person to person, when i have a good amount of physical activity, i sleep 8 hours, sometimes 8.5 and when school or work get tough, i drop the physical activity and 7 hrs become good enough.

the general rule of thumb is 7-8 hours, 8 being preferred. Teens going through puberty need an extra hour of sleep per night. Athletes and active people need an extra hour of sleep per hour of activity

Sleep until you wake up naturally, but don't dick around and lay in bed once you wake up.

Allowing yourself to wake up naturally works if you're out of school and unemployed and have no responsibilities at all.

6-8 hours for adults. You'll find that your body will eventually adapt well to less sleep, though. Since classes started up again, I've been lucky to get five hours a sleep a night and it seems I've developed a problem where I get in bed feeling tired, but end up with my heart racing and too much adrenaline going to be able to sleep.

It sucked at first, I was tired as hell for a few days, but now my body is used to getting less than six hours per night. It got so used to it that when I ACTUALLY had free time on the weekend last Saturday, I ended up sleeping for like 11 hours, but the problem was I was groggy ALL DAY because I slept way too much and my body was not used to it.

And, right now, I have to be up at 8AM and it's almost 12:45AM. I need to take a shower sometime before I go to sleep, which is only going to wake me up more and render me unable to sleep. If I try to shower in the morning I'm gonna be running late. Shitsux.

you are sleep deprived. Your body does not adapt to less sleep, you just think it does. Sleep deprivation is similar to alcohol impairment in that the user does not know they are impaired. The reason you slept 11 hours on the weekend is because you have accumulated sleep debt and your body is trying to work it off. You felt groggy because you have an unhealthy sleeping schedule in which you deprive yourself all week and try to make up for it on the weekends. Scientists have concluded that the body keeps track of sleep debt for a full month, however, some have postulated that it can keep track of sleep debt for a full year. There are of course a few people who physically need less sleep, they are genetic freaks and nothing close to the norm, despite what society tells you
