3)How much sleep do you get per night, or combined with naps?

Answer B: 2 Points

You may not be getting enough sleep. If you structure your life so you can get between 7 and 9 hours of sleep each night, or supplement your night sleep with naps so you get that amount each day, you should find it easier to focus during the day, and you may find that you’Äôre less moody and can handle stress more easily.
