Around 20. I used to hate it and worry about lack of sleep, but now im used to it.

Doesn't it worry you that you sleep so much?

@NOS4R2 thats a lot! i think you should worry a bit.

of course, but i need to take these anti psychotics and anti depressants otherwise i can't function during the hours i would be awake.

@popmol Ive researched sleep a lot because i was worried. Apparently it ultimately gets down to how you function during your waking hours.
And i seem to do fine. So i dont bother about it anymore.
I still get body rest for 8 hours. Sometimes i imagine or design things, or i mediitate or go over my day or plan the one coming up.

Shame you need to take them, it must make days go by pretty quick
