Less Sleep?

I remember as a kid waking and feeling like I needed to go back to sleep. I hated waking up. I felt groggy, cranky, on the verge of tears. It stunk! As a young adult, I tried to stay with the recommended 8 hours. Still felt bad. I had a hard time falling asleep and waking my whole life. I used to fret when I would look at the clock and see 12:00 am! Then my job changed. I found if I went to bed at 12:30 am and awoke between 6 and 8 am, I felt great! I have stuck with that for the last several years. I cant take naps. If I do, I am up all night and I get migraines. I also avoid them because my naps, rare as they may be, last 4 hours or more. I feel refreshed. Even if I cant sleep that night, the next day, I feel fine. And if I fall asleep before 10:00 pm, I am up at 4:00 am, and cant fall back asleep. So, I make myself stay up till 12:30, and awake between 6:00 and 8:00 am. Mind you, after I turn everything off, I am still up for another hour or so. I am estimating that I am getting between 5-7 hours of sleep on average. My daughter, I used to send her to bed at 8:30. But she would be awake in her bed for a whileand up at4:00 am. I stopped her early bed time and let her choose her own bed time. Now That she is a teenager, shes sleeping in late. I have read about people who need less sleep. Sleeping elite or super sleepers? Anyone know anything about this? I took a question and scored a 43.I am afraid of messing up my body getting less than the recommended, but I feel so good!
