When I was working I got about 6 hours a night and thrived on it. Now, particularly since my illness, I go to bed about midnight and sleep until about 9. I do get up 2 or 3 times to go to the loo but I'm hardly awake. I also nod off if I sit with my feet up watching telly, usually only for 10 to 15 minutes at a time, I call it power napping.
