You instantly wake up after your clock alarmed, or hit that snooze button? email this discussion to a friend?

I'm lucky that I can sleep anytime I want and wake up anytime I want, since I work part time for now, my work starts at 7pm. So I've got plenty of time for myself and for other things. However, when there are times that I have to wake up early for important matters, and everytime I set my clock phone for the time I should be up, I don't normally wake up instantly,but instead I'll say to myself, "5 minutes!" and hit the snooze button. And after 5 minutes, I'd say again, "5 more minutes!", I do this several times, 'til I reach an hour because of snoozing. I have a little wake up problem, I know! Lol And I have always been late to wherever I'm going, I'm the late princess (not something really that I'm proud of). But lately, I've trying to work on this, I'm trying to be on time. So, do you press that snooze button? Maybe not exactly what I do, let an hour to pass.. Lol lol

hay, i too had the habit to do the same thing since was in the school to my college days, u know what once i kept alarm at 4 am in morning to get up and study for the exam, that day exam which was at 9am, as the alarm was ringing, i clicked the stop button thinking i will get up in 5-10 minutes.. later i finally woke up at 7:30 that morning. i was fully disturbed and nervous before going to my exam since my preparation was very handful.., that day i realized that there must be some solution to what i have done,and it was completely my own mistake, then later on i found a new solution, i.c keep the alarm device far on the different table with loud tone, so that if u have to shut it you should walk up to the device and shut it down,.. by the time you walk up at least 30% chances r that u be more fresh than what u were while sleeping.. this solution helped me several times in my life... hope this helps you too... Have a great day..! Nice discussion

Hi,

I have the same problem too! And I'm not proud of it either!

Even tried the same method to solve my problem. But it's not successful in my case! I always ended up back in my bed for the next few minutes till the alarm rang again..

I have a few alarm clocks as well! Even set reminders in my handphone... So far, they have only been successful for the first few days...

Now im resorting to tuning my clock to half an hour earlier, on top of the multiple alarms as well as putting my alarm clock far from my bed! So far been alright.. But it gets worse by the day... Waking up minutes later and later by the day even... Sign..

I have tried to sleep early at night say around 10pm.. But I have a habit of sleeping late.. I always ended up reading till 2 in the morning or watching the television till 12am... But when I do get to sleep early successfully once in awhile, I do wake up on time.. even have time to make breakfast!

However, I am never an early sleeper... I just have to think of something else soon!

I always hit the snooze button because I don't want to get up instantly and don't like the alarm sound disturbing my sleep. The sleep in the morning is so nice and most desirable thing for me.

As a matter of fact, I do hitting the snooze button more often than I do wake up instantly, and it's my mum knocking on my door that wakes me up most of the time. I definitely am not a morning person, but as unlucky as I am my school starts at exactly 7 am that I have no choice but to wake up at 5.30 or even earlier. The only time when I could resist the attempt to press the snooze button and not get back to sleep is when I have some exams to run and have to study.

i'll always hit the snooze button, definitely. i'll lay in bed for like 15 minutes (or more!) before i actually get up. wink

i always wake up before the alarm goes off and i prefer it that way. but on the very rare occasion where i oversleep and the alarm goes off to wake me up it is a Godsend because i cannot afford to oversleep. i have a very hectic daily schedule and even 15 minutes lost especially in the morning can be a disaster for me. i like to be awake a bit before it is time to get out of bed anyway as it gives me a chance to wake up a bit more. i hate just springing out of bed.

No, I don't use the snooze button. I figure I couldn't go back to sleep when I heard the alarm go off the first time. Hehe.
