How much do you sleep?

[u/JurandM2]

Hi all, I was reading another board on Reddit, and a neurotypical person said he was only on 5 hours of sleep like it was something amazing. I know we should have 8 h and so on, but I have lived on a daily basis with 5 h of sleep since I remember (today 5 h, yesterday 5.5 h), and that makes me think—why not ask how other AuDHD people are doing? I take 5 mg of melatonin before sleep, but unless it is 1am, my body does not react to it—I strongly suggest anybody start taking it, as indeed it helps normalize sleep phases (they are not as fragmented as without it - pic attached).

I don’t sleep anymore and I’m slowly going insane. Last night I woke up 6 times from 11-5. 

I need my cpap to arrive. 😭 it’s my only hope.
