Depends on age: Average sleep time depends mostly on age. 6-8 hours is normal for a grown adult. If you are having difficulty with sleep issues, speak to a physician about a sleep study to determine is you have an adequate airway during sleep and if there are other observable abnormalities that cn be identified.

About 8 hrs: The average sleep time for a healthy young man s about 7.5 hours. However there is a very wide range from person to person. Signs of sleep trouble include a change in one's usual length of sleep, or a pattern of interrupted sleep.
