This is why I have 5 alarms set at 5 minutes increments. I always always snooze the first one and pass out again immediately. Or I just straight up sleep through it.
I think it’s best to get out of that cycle and force your body to wake up at the first alarm. Otherwise you’re just wasting time on nothing - your brain doesn’t rest properly in those 5-minute doses and you’re not getting ready either. The way I’m doing it is to put my phone in a different room next to my bedroom so that I have to get out of bed to turn off the alarm. If you’re managing to sleep through alarms it’s probably not the solution for you, so maybe the QRAlarm recommendation made elsewhere in the thread is better.
It doesn’t matter what anyone does. I don’t actively remember snoozing it or sleeping through it. That shit is on autopilot. I have snoozed an alarm and sent a text to someone without waking up.
The 5 alarms is necessary. I have 3 on my phone and 2 on my Google home because I have slept through 2-3 alarms before. If I am asleep asleep you can pour water on me and I won’t wake up. Shattering glass. Vacuum. Blender. Lights. You name it.
My mom used to have to take my blankets and pillow away. Turn on my lights. Poor water on me and smack me around to get me outta bed at times.
I blame my father. When I was little I would fall asleep and take naps right next to his floor tom while he was practicing with his band. Full volume band practice and I would just pass out into my box of Legos right there next to him.
It is what it is.
QRAlarm on the F-Droid or play store.
The alarm only go off after reading a QRcode that you can put on your bathroom or other place and ensure that you walk away from bed before turning it off.
More dangerous - resting your eyes while driving to work in the morning.
This is why I prefer public transit for my morning commute as opposed to driving.
You can doze off all you want without fear of killing someone. With how sleep deprived I usually am there’s no way me forcing myself to drive in the morning is safe. Worst that can happen is the bus driver gets annoyed at you because you slept past the last stop.
I am genuinely finding that it’d easier to just force yourself to get straight up as soon as the alarm rings. Like peeling off a band-aid. Lying in bed after the alarm only makes you more and more drowsy. The more you snooze, the more your body wants to go back to sleep so you end up in this vicious cycle.
I wish… I consistently wake up at least an hour early and am unable to go back to sleep…
Me too. And it’s only getting worse as I age.
Must be nice being able to fall asleep after being woken up 😔
The best one ever
There’s more cocks on YT than I expected.
I have failed this game twice this week already
It feels so good though
Running behind
I both need this and hate this
i hate needing this
Alternatively this one
Not as dangerous a game as doing it on an overnight drive.
I had to download an app on my phone where I can set multiple alarms for this exact reason! The first one goes off at 8am, then another one plays every half hour until I get up. It has an “extreme” setting for heavier sleepers where it keeps getting louder until you solve a math equation to turn it off again, but I only use that for special occasions lol
I have one that can only be turn off by reading a QRCode that I printed and put in the bathroom.
Which one is that? That sounds like an even better idea!
QRAlarm on the F-Droid or PlayStore. You need to have some QR to scan already or print one.
like this?
I do them in 15 min increments so I can snooze something every 6 minutes or whatever
Sleep for Android?
I love that app. I got it tuned just how I like it.
I’ve used it for 10+ years, it’s amazing.
I used it way back but haven’t found anything comparable after going FOSS only. I miss the adaptive wake-up window.
It’s called “Alarm Clock Xtreme & Timer” but I do use it on android
“Siri work alarm 8am
Siri work alarm 8:15am
Siri work alarm 8:20am
….”🙈
“Oh fuck!”
It’s like saying “hit me!” on a 20. You’re gonna lose, but it’s kinda fun.
This meme made me make more alarms
