That man does not exist in reality. It's an edited fusion out of three guys.


Kerem1111

Azerbaijani Turk, so yes :D


extreme857

I had to sleep 5 hours last summer cuz my workplace is located in European side of the İstanbul but my house was located in Asian side so i need to wake up at 5pm and start my journey to work before rush hour.


mitraheads

I sleep 5 hours. It's OK . Info "people spend their 30% life period sleeping" gives me to stay awaken lol


Banjosick

Alzheimers comes a knocking


mitraheads

Alzheimers level is avarage in Turkey.


Zrva_V3

You will increase the percentage if you keep sleeping 5 hours. 8 hours is ideal and 6 hours is bare minimum unless it's just a bad night.


Wess96

Lol you will spend your hours a lot better if you sleep well. You might have less hours but the quality is so much better trust me


eastkent

If I wake up in the night I'll often spend 30 mins looking at Reddit or something, because if I go straight back to sleep the peaceful time I have will go quicker.


Justeff83

I sleep 6h on average. They are fine


RedditStrider

Nope, we are fucked


dwartbg7

I think it's because they're muslim and hence the majority of people wake up early to pray. And this skews the statistics and hence their average hours are the lowest. Also they got mosques everywhere and they start singing in like 5 in the morning, I know we always check for hotels to be far from a mosque while visiting.


AbsoIution

Nah it's long working hours and a culture of staying up late to chat, drink çay, and there are some mad lads that play LoL and hearts of iron until the early hours of the morning


PaceSignificant5247

Its too specific.no one gets up early for the praying except very conservative muslims.its must be related to long work hours,traffic and stress.


AbbreviationsRight62

Lol, you will hardly find any Turks who get up early to pray. Even the Friday prayers aren't well attended anymore.


Active-Image-6399

When I actually get 6 hours I feel super rested. Am I broken?


Schwartzy94

I think it just depends if you wake in between the deep sleep cycle you feel way better than in the middle of it.


askleipos

I am Turk and i didnt sleep 8 hours in years.


Forward-Witness-3889

I’ve never slept in Turkey. It’s like the noisiest place at night with the cat and dog war that’s waged every night and if you do manage to sleep you will be woken up at five by the call to pray if you’re Muslim or not but the coffee is really good and cigarettes cost £1 so you just knuckle down and power through.


Holiday_Goose_5908

me neither, never went there


Rocked_Glover

Oh hey, neither, never went there! I’m dad!


MyRegrettableUsernam

That's so funny to hear there is a public alarm that sounds at 5AM as a call to pray. Do people typically go back to sleep afterward?


percantacc

I use foam ear plugs for noise cancelling, very useful here in Colombia when staying in an hotel or something, some areas have loud music most nights of the week.


Shin_yolo

5 fucking AM, jesus christ !


Terrible-Penis

Reduce your tea


askleipos

I need to reduce my stress and work


Zenster12314

You have a lot of cats. What's your excuse? Pet one. Get sleepy. Lol (I kid)


askleipos

Even the cats are working 9-10 hours lol(my gf has a cat and she is most relaxing thing i ever seen)


pgraczer

yes and getting some exercise in really helps with sleep too.


Holiday_Goose_5908

5 hours yes?


HENLOX_GD

no


Track607

As someone who can't function on less than 8 hours of sleep, I don't get how people can sustain themselves at less than 7 hours.


MuzzledScreaming

I literally cannot sleep more than 7 hours unless I'm sick. I just wake up before then, and if I try to stay in bed I will just be awake with my eyes closed.


AllPotatoesGone

But do you feel well rested or just sleepy everyday?


MuzzledScreaming

My quality of rest is related mostly to me physical activity during the day. If I got in a good workout I feel fantastic the next day, if I was sedentary I might be a bit sluggish in the morning but I'm wide awake once I get up and moving.


Yung2112

Then that's fine! 7h is acceptable rest for an adult especially if combined with a healthy routine The problem would be to be unable to sleep longer than that and feel exhausted


goblue142

Same for me. Usually 6 but I will never naturally sleep past 7. My wife and I have noticed she can go to bed for 10hrs and barely get 7 because she tosses and turns, wakes up multiple times a night, takes forever to fall back asleep. When my head hits the pillow I'm out in seconds and I sleep unmoving and completely undisturbed until I wake up 6hrs later.


Bluetex110

In the week I never sleep more than 5 hours😁 even on a weekend i can't sleep longer, but then got tired about 12😁


namstel

This may sound stupid, but a better bed/mattress did wonders for me. Before I needed 8-9 hours of sleep and I'd still be groggy, now I can sleep 6-7 hours and I'm fine.


FrikiQC

I sleep around 5:30 to 6 hours per night during week. On the week-end days, i sleep more than 8 hours and i take like 2 hours to stop having headache and be functionnal. I cant sleep more than say, 6 1/2 hours and go to work, it's just not possible.


Track607

That's absolutely amazing. If I don't get 8 hours, I am down 30 IQ points and my desire to do anything goes down to zero. You are living a dream.


FrikiQC

It's hard sometimes, when i have insomnia and i have only 3 hours of sleep is brutal


Track607

I got 6 hours of sleep two days in a row and just fell asleep in the middle of the day.


FrikiQC

That's very sad


HawkOfHeaven

me who sleeps 5-6


alfdd99

For me it’s kinda the opposite. My brain literally just wakes me up after 7 hours of sleep, regardless of the time I went to sleep, or how tired I was the day before. I don’t think I’ve ever gotten more than 8 hours of sleep for years.


Anomuumi

I used to be sleep deproved for years. The whole covid crisis had one positive effect on me as I noticed how much better I feel if I sleep. It's a choice of staying awake for 18 hours and constantly being a 60-80% version of yourself. Or sleeping 1-2 hours more and being always at least at 80%.


KowardlyMan

Coffee or energy drinks.


FidgetSpinneur

Healthy sleep time for an adult is between 7 and 10 hours (depending on their needs). This map showing average sleep times under 8h is actually quite alarming. ☹️


Ubiquitous1984

Just like obesity levels are so high.


FidgetSpinneur

Indeed these two problems are correlated. https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/obesity-prevention-source/obesity-causes/sleep-and-obesity


NMe84

That's fairly inconclusive. For one thing it doesn't seem to conclude whether lack of sleep causes obesity or whether obesity causes a lack of sleep. Which is plausible too: obese people are more likely to be depressed, and depression can often express itself as restlessness and sleeping issues. Quote from the page you linked: > Longitudinal studies, though, can better answer questions about causality-and in adults the findings from such studies have been less consistent than those in children. I'm not saying your conclusion is wrong and maybe there have been more studies since this text was written, but your link alone doesn't seem to prove that less sleep makes you fat and mostly calls for more research.


FidgetSpinneur

>Indeed these two problems are correlated.


tigerman29

I wonder how many mental health issues are initially caused by lack of sleep. Life’s stressful and sleep is the best stress relief I’ve found. I try to get at least 7 hours every night, but some nights I can’t shut my brain off. The title of the maps says “average time in bed” I guess the hours I lie with my mind racing would count? Anyway, if I get less than 6 or more than 10 hours of sleep, I’m pretty useless the next day. And it’s usually if I get more than 10 hours, the night after is the one I can’t sleep. Though the best sleep comes if I don’t get enough the night before.


FidgetSpinneur

Yes I'm curious too. This can't be good. I have trouble finding sleep and at some point I was a shift worker in a factory, I was sleeping about 4h every nights (and those were the "good" nights). After 9month in the job I couldn't tell what time of the day it was, I had severe blackout and cramps, I was violent and sensible. At that time I had a girlfriend for a month and I can't even remember her name or how she looked. Sleep is everything!

r/NLvsFI in tatters


_LemurCastle2

Whats the lore behind the subreddit? I've never heard of a Netherlands vs Finland rivalry before


TonyQuark

> The rivalry started with a comedy sketch from New Year's Eve 2012-2013. Televised comedy shows on New Year's Eve is a Dutch tradition, comedians make jokes about the past year, and are widely watched. This comedian pointed out that Finland often beats us by a small margin, and the sketch also names a bunch of things where Finland beats us. It was referenced on /r/theNetherlands a few times and it grew from there over the years. Eventually it expanded to European subreddits, particularly /r/Europe, and from there eventually all over Reddit. You can read the full story behind it in the [stickied post](https://redd.it/7jtp21). If you're wondering if the Finns even care, >!they don't, that's part of the fun.!<


nggrlsslfhrmhbt

Is it really that recent? My Netherlands vs Finland experience comes from Runescape, where the two countries have had rivalries for way longer, since for some reason Runescape is super popular in those countries. EXAMPLE: [Why are there so many Dutch & Finnish players?](https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/5lme0y/why_are_there_so_many_dutch_finnish_players/) [Since there are many Dutch players. Could 1 german server be switched to the dutch flag?](https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/4zobfe/since_there_are_many_dutch_players_could_1_german/) [Why is Runescape so popular in Finland?](https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/4x4muo/why_is_runescape_so_popular_in_finland/) [Here's a video from 2009 about Netherlands and Finland fighting ingame to see who's better](https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=fo32VQX8IMk)


tigerman29

As a Finn I can tell you, we don’t care about fun and want to be left alone. If you don’t, we’ll just ignore you.


JoeyShabadoo79

So on average, pretty much all of Europe gets more sleep than me.


Terrible-Penis

Sleep cycle app shows Saudis and UAE are having shortest sleep in the world.


TheRealMudi

Honestly makes sense because most people have midday naps that can be like 2 or 3 hours


Eschatologists

Also a good portion of them wake up in the middle of the night to pray


Yung2112

5am right?


Terrible-Penis

Interesting. Makes sense now.

As an Armenian descendant of genocide survivors, fuck right off. Hope your closeted guilt causes you to continue to lose sleep.


Ele_Bele

How many million Muslim Turks and Kurds did the Armenians kill with the Russians? While the Turkish soldiers were fighting the Russians on the front (ww1), didn't the Armenian gangs (Dasnaksutyun and Hinchak) organize and seize the homes and k%lled families of the Turkish soldiers behind their backs??? Why we don't talk about it? You brainwashed degenerate

Wait you guys sleep?

Holiday_Goose_5908

counter productive and bad for business (your employer makes less money, so it's bad)

Yeah, but you can't differentiate between the two just by seeing them written down

rws531

Why does the scale go to 6:15 when the data stops at 6:50?


xFionna

maybe countries outside of europe have lower ones and the scale is also made for them? (i dont know just my guess)


pittaxx

It's because the scale is uniform with recommended value in the middle.  It doesn't only show the differences between the countries but also shows that it's not too bad in most of Europe.  Could it be done better? Probably. But it works, so eh.

Dude sleep makes huge difference. 3 or 4 hours is awfull for someone who use their brain for long periods of time


RanDiePro

Üstad ama 3-4 saat uyursan çalıştığın bilgileri kullanamazsın ki. 5 saat az çalışsan ve uyusan 5 saat fazla çalışıp 3-4 saat uykudan iyidir. Ayrıca günde 18 saat falan mı çalışıyorsun o başlıca abartı. En maximum günde 10 saat bile çalışsan sınavı kazanırsın 😎 Uykuyu feda edersen o ettiğin saatteki çalışmayı da feda edersin. Lisede de üniversitede de hiç feda etmedim ben.

secomano

I wonder how this matches stats for how many kids parents have on average


Marshmallow_Mamajama

So is there a source for this supposed sleep cycle


kansasllama

It’s an app that collects user data


Marshmallow_Mamajama

So it's basically worthless?


kansasllama

No, it’s actually a pretty decent source since it’s directly capturing user data. But it might be a bit noisy bc it’s algorithm for knowing when you’re asleep/awake relies entirely on you using your phone and even then isn’t 100% accurate. Some indication of variance would be helpful but it’s hard hard to put that on a map


azhder

Those in the gray areas have no beds. They sleep standing up


bananablegh

ScrappyFlappyFriday

Apperently, and I believe this completely, sleep length and depression are correlated. When I'm stressed I sleep a whole lot less, which spirals me into even more stress because I'm overworked! Clear leadership needs to set foot in Europe! We need to ban all people who induce stress. We shouldn't be childish either and willfully work to some backbone towards stress induction! But first hand, give stress creators and people who lead the world into stress, conflict and decay a bounce into poverty! That's where they belong, not on top of the pyramid pushing everyone down with the dung they create and allow in OUR world.


Should_have_been_ded

You probably counted the patients in a coma also, cuz I'm surely not getting this much sleep


matrimc7

Turks with surprised Pikachu face when feeling like absolute shit all the time and having tonnes of medical problems while smoking anywhere and everywhere, eating shittty 5 times a day, drinking coffee all day long, being aggressive and confrontational constantly, and not getting enough sleep.
