I'm pretty sick...bad infections and awaiting a transplant. I need A LOT of sleep. Usually go to bed aroun 10:30pm-6am, get chest PT and go back to sleep until noon (no joke). Sometimes I feel like I could just keep sleeping, but I force myself to get up. By 6pm I'm exhausted again.

i really likeee to have 9+, but i hate sleeping in
ideal: go to bed at 9, wake up at 6 during the school week. and get atleast one night on the weekend where i get 10 hours of sleep. i need a lot of sleep! im still tired even with that much sleep usually.
i spend 11 hours a day going to, being at, and coming home from school. so yeah, haha, ickkk!

8 hours seems perfect for me; between 7.5 and 8.5 is fine but anything more or less than that is bad. I can't nap because I feel horrible for hours after I've woken up...
Also, my best time is mid-morning, about two hours after I've woken up. Mid-afternoon I slow down a lot and I'm definitely not a night owl!

Shoot i sleep a lot...but I cant say it's a very stable schedule. I maybe do 8-9 hrs for 2 or 3 nights in a row and then I know I need to crash for like 12 hours maybe more...so I am like normal for a day or two and then I pretty much kill a day sleeping catching back up. I guess my battery has a short charge life. Usually on that day I dont even waste energy showering <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> and if I do thats ALL i do all day! Cute huh? Haaa <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0"> ....

Pre Transplant I needed about 9-10 hrs of sleep. Of course I never got that between meds, homework, and being social. I found that I would doze off in High School during class...A LOT. Although I got through high school with a 3.8 I don't think that was the best thing to do! In college it was so much easier. I scheduled late classes and usually went to bed before midnight so sometimes I could squeeze in 11 hrs. Depending on what else I had going on. And always a two hour nap from 2-4 or 3-5 in the afternoon. Right before transplant alls I did was sleep. I really slept all day and was usually up for most of the night. It was weird because I would stay up until 3 am, sleep until noon, eat something, then go back to sleep for hours. I remember a nurse told me once that CF patient's circadian (is that the right word?) rythmns were off and were were usually up at night...I found that I was always hanging out with the nurses late at night in the Hospital. Does anyone else find that when they were admitted to the hospital they would be up at night?
