7 to 8. My CPAP machine helped the quality of sleep.

I like to get 8.
It's closer to 5-6 most nights though.
Working midnights doesn't help.

Usually only 4-5 hours per night. Came down with bad case of Covid and was in specialty hospitals and nursing home for 14 months. Bad things happen at nights in such places. Had a 95 year old roommate and they had to check his Depends every 2 hours. Hall and bathroom lights always on. Dementia patients yelling or roaming the halls in wheelchairs. Folks die in the wee hours of the morning. That’s when the coroner and the ambulance crews and funeral home hearse come. Still have problems going off to sleep. Just got a CPAP machine today. Hopefully it will help. Night nurse said I stopped breathing many times during night shift. I used one for years until wife had breast cancer 2X and I was the caregiver. I couldn’t hear her at nights over the noise of the CPAC and quit using it.

I go to bed if I can at 9 or 10. Get up when the dogs have to pee- me too, usually. - around 7. (OK- there's a 2-4 a.m. pee for everyone, usually!)
My body like 9 hours sleep, and finally I got old enough to get it! I'm 74 and retired 4 years ago.
I'm loving it!
But I can get by with the 6 hours or so that I've had for the last 50-60 years. I was always tired.

Sleep is VERY IMPORTANT and at 5 hours per night, you’re not getting enough. Go see your doctor. He can help.
Mackey My Doctor is the one that cased it.
If I talk over you, I apologize. I'm afraid I will lose my train-of-thought.
