    I don’t know once I got close to my mid 30s I started going to bed at like 9:30 because it’s just not worth it any more.

      Everyone needs a bit different amount of sleep. My wife could really use to go to bed at 930 or 10 and sleep until 630 or so.

      I have found 6-7 hours is my optimal amount, so as long as I’m asleep but midnight I’m doing ok.

      I often go past that anyway though, because it’s the only time I get where I have no responsibilities left for the day, and I can have some actual quiet to think about and do whatever I want to do without feeling guilty that I should be doing something else.

      I fully recognize that sounds unreasonable, but I need the time to myself so I don’t go crazy.
