LONDON - British teenagers are damaging their health by not getting enough sleep because they are distracted by electronic gadgets in their bedrooms, according to a survey on Tuesday.

Advice body The Sleep Council said "junk sleep" could rival the consumption of unhealthy junk food as a major lifestyle issue for parents of teenage children.

Its poll of 1,000 youngsters aged 12 to 16 found that 30 percent managed just 4 to 7 hours sleep as opposed to the recommended 8 or 9 hours.

Pussy Brits.  I was sleeping 2 - 4 hours a night maximum when I was in highschool.  Thanks, Ultima Online!

I need at least 8 hours to be fully rested.  Plus it takes me like 40 minutes every night to fall asleep.  Sleep requirements varies per individual, though. 

Sleep is great.  Nothing like sleeping in on a Saturday morning.

Too bad we haven't adopted the siesta here in the States.

I've been doing that all summer.  It's so fucking nice to wake up and be ready to get up and going instead of all groggy.

I dunno how you guys have time to sleep that much. Between Work, the commute TO Work, and the time left over to take care of errands and maybe doing something I want to, going to bed at 10 sounds like ass.

Didn't you say that two weeks ago?  :P

It's probably easier to get rid of the sinuses than the drinking at this point!

i don't sleep well at all.  sometimes i get like 4 or 5 hours of sleep, other times, i get like 12 or 13 hours of sleep.  it's ridiculous.
