I'm having trouble sleeping. How many hours of sleep do I need each night?<|im_end|>

Most adults need 7-9 hours of sleep each night for optimal health and functioning.<|im_end|>

I've been sleeping 6 hours a night, is that okay?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
While you might be able to get by on 6 hours, consistently getting less than 7 hours can lead to sleep deprivation and negatively impact your mood, energy, and overall health.<|im_end|>

How can I start sleeping more?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Try going to bed 15-30 minutes earlier each night and establish a relaxing bedtime routine to help signal to your body that it's time to sleep.<|im_end|>
