    Mood. Worst part is, if I set this many, I’ll wake up before the first one goes off. Every time.

    If I set a normal amount of alarms, or god forbid no alarms, I’m not waking up for hours past when I should’ve.

      I mean tbh, waking up naturally shortly before your first alarm is MUCH better than being woken up in the middle of deep sleep by your alarm. I always feel 10x better when I wake up shortly before my alarm as opposed to being pissed off that my alarm is going off in the middle of my precious sleep.

        Yup, I learnt a long time ago just to get up if it’s <30 min till the alarm hits. I might be tired, but I’ll be more tired if I push it.

        Okay, maybe <15.

    I’ve got an alarm app on my phone, that requires me to solve 3 math problems to stop ringing. Then it waits 10 minutes and a message pops up for me to confirm that i’m still awake, otherwise it starts ringing again.

      That sounds annoying as fuck. So the alarm starts blaring and you have to panic solve 3 maths problems while your room mates yell at you to shut your fucking alarm up

        I mean, it is supposed to be annoying, but the alarm turns off temporarily when you start solving the questions. You can also set the difficulty, mine are nothing crazy, just x + y * z . Pretty easy, but hard enough that i can’t solve them while half-asleep.

          Keep in mind your alarm is the very first conscious moment of your day, your brain releasing shit loads of cortisol isn’t the best way to set yourself up. Ideally you want to replicate nature if you can. Phillips have a wake up light alarm clock that fades on over time. If you couple this with some bird sounds or relaxing music that fades on after it’s light it’s very easy to wake up. And if you wake up in the cold set a timer on a heater to turn on before you wake up to begin to raise your body temperature.
