Hey @bpcyclist have you ever had a sleep study? I am not saying you are like me but one of the things I learned is there are actually people out there who do not need the purported 7-8 hours of sleep every night. Have you always been like this?

I generally, when I do sleep, which isn't often, sleep only for maybe 2 hours before I just wake up, ready to go.
One thing I am noticing recently is this weird dichotomy between how long it seems like I've been asleep (as judged right when I wake up but before looking at any clock) and then, how long it turns out I have actually slept. Example. I just woke up. I was finally able to fall asleep. I had a bunch of dreams. It seemed like it had been maybe, oh, 3-4 hours perhaps. But guess what? It was just under an hour.
Am I the only one who thinks they are sleeping way longer than they actually are? What does this mean?
