How many hours should I be sleeping?
13/F
So I go to sleep at about midnight then wake up at 6:00AM. I have stuff to do, that's why. Should I sleep more? Is it okay? I don't know how I'll be able to sleep more.

It's fine!
Sleep is important, but not as crucial as everyone thinks. The user below is right, for your age then it should be about 8 hours.
But I went through one week of hell with insomnia when I had no sleep at all-and hey I'm still here.
As long as you can function correctly during the day and its not affecting your grades or how you live you're life, don't worry and carry on as you are.
Doctors told me it really doesn't matter, the only thing that gets affected through lack of sleep is your memory.
Honestly-you've got bigger fish to fry than worry about sleep!

Everybody is different and everybody's body is different and needs different amounts of sleep.
At 13, normally it's around 8 hours but it might be more or less depending on your body.
Are you feeling tired during the day? If you are then you need more, if not, then you are probably fine.
If you feel the need to sleep more, then you have to train yourself because you're already adjusted to going to bed at midnight and waking up at 6.
