"If you're asking how much sleep we need on average, that's a reasonable answer. But does everybody need eight hours of sleep? The answer is most certainly no," says W. Chris Winter, a neurologist and sleep expert based in Charlottesville, Virginia, and Health Advisory Board member.
"We create anxiety throwing that number around, because there are plenty of people who need less."
If you regularly wake up feeling refreshed after seven hours and maintain that energy throughout the day, you have found the amount of sleep you need.
