"Long Sleepers" Show Higher Dementia Risk

There are other studies that say sleeping is a huge factor in the aging process and general health. Most people don't get enough sleep... If you wake up to an alarm, you obviously haven't slept enough... 5 days out of 7 an alarm wakes me up...

The alarm wakes me about once every 3 months. I usually only sleep about 5 hours. I wake up around 5 am every day.

 

I agree, on some mornings i wake up on my own, those days i usually feel GREAT all day long, some days i'll just sleep right through the alarm.. I try getting to bed around the same time each night but i guess it just depends on the actual quality of sleep that im getting.. Not sure. In most cases i slept better in my truck than i did in my bed at home!

 

So with the HOS, they are forcing us to possibly get dementia? LOL!

 

Only if you can sleep for 10hrs, I cannot! I would toss ans turn to much to sleep that long!

 

How so?

You do not have to sleep the whole time.

 

Just making a joke... geez.

 

Believe me, I know some that do sleep that long and have thought they were supposed to be when they were on break.

 

After years of averaging 6 hrs nightly.....I'm lucky to sleep that long in the sleeper now.....
