That's a good result. No blaring alarm. Now when you wake up 1hr before the alarm and can't get back to sleep: yes that hurts.

[–] Vampiric_Luma@lemmy.ca 46 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I get hyped when this happens.

My body has mastered time. I am above these mortal tools.

But if it plays before I can turn it off it scares me :(

[–] Adori@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Meeeee, specially since my alarm puts my spotify Playlist so it's takes another step from my list of things to in the morning :3

[–] ikiru@lemmy.ml 35 points 2 years ago

I don't understand why you're rolling your eyes in the title. Are you annoyed by your own post?

Anyway, I always prefer to wake up naturally as opposed by an alarm. Best case scenario to wake up by myself and on-time.

less than a minute? No.

Between 10 to 30 minutes before. Yes.

[–] eldain@feddit.nl 6 points 2 years ago

If you consider the human brain works in 90 min chunks for most things including sleeping, that is completely within spec. For another chunk of sleep, you need to go to bed 60-80 min earlier.

[–] Valmond@lemmy.mindoki.com 4 points 2 years ago

Wait until you wake up before the alarm, but it's actually 20-30 minutes after.

[–] sexy_peach@feddit.de 21 points 2 years ago

Yes it did.

[–] Aermis@lemmy.world 19 points 2 years ago

Yeah but it didn't the rest of the day because being rested and not being woken up from an alarm is better than the alternative. 1 minute before is perfect. It's the 30 minutes that kills me

[–] HooPhuckenKarez@kbin.social 17 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I did this today. Beats the shit out 2.5 hours before it goes off, and nicer than hitting snooze every 5 minutes for half an hour.

[–] TheLoneMinon@lemm.ee 6 points 2 years ago

I love 2.5 hours before it goes off. I tend to wake up dead to the world be it 5:30am or 7am. At least at 5:30 I can indulge my want to go back to sleep...

[–] Bene7rddso@feddit.de 2 points 2 years ago

2.5 hours before is fine, I'll just go back to sleep. Half an hour tho...

[–] KoboldCoterie@pawb.social 14 points 2 years ago

I feel like I have a superpower when that happens. Even if I still feel like shit and would obviously rather go back to sleep, it still feels better to wake up naturally than get woken up by the alarm.

[–] christian@lemmy.ml 12 points 2 years ago

There's a feeling of panic that sets in when you really don't want to hear the alarm and realize you had better rush to disable it before that last minute counts up.

One of my top 5 personal rules is that I never look at what time it is if the amount of sleep I'm getting is part of the equation. I set my alarm for whatever time I must be awake, and otherwise, I wanna be left alone. Ignorance is bliss.

[–] kubica@kbin.social 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

About to get up because I've been rolling in the bed for half an hour... Checks clock, only 1 minute left... "Oh no, why, I'm so tired."

[–] EvolvedTurtle@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I personally can be tired all day But once I get home from work Wide awake And it's honestly frustrating

[–] ohlaph@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago

Did? It is still hurting.

[–] standard_error@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago (4 children)

Implying I set an alarm. Implying every moment awake isn't pain. Get on my level of existential misery and dread

/S I'm actually in a pretty good place mentally.

[–] devfuuu@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

That's what we all say to ourselves.

[–] Holzkohlen@feddit.de 4 points 2 years ago

I'm actually in a pretty good place mentally.

I too try to gaslight myself into thinking I am fine.

[–] Classy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

Nice to see one stranger on the internet that doesn't appear to be in an unending state of torture.

[–] Adori@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

No, I typically take that as a good sign; it means I have a routine so stable that my body is acclimating to it.

[–] wersooth@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 years ago

it's way worse, if you wake up like 10-15 minutes before alarm. when you can sleep back for a bit, but it will result in you waking up like you slept like 2 hours and you feel worse than a piece of shit... every day.... :D

Ha, literally this morning. Didn't hurt. I actually thought I forgot to set the alarm.

At what time does it go from "Aww shit" to "Nice"?

For others, this comment is "Hai," or "yes" in Japanese.

[–] sagrotan@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Nope. I just decided to go 2 hours later to my own company and turned around again. That's why I started that whole thing years ago, literally with nothing. And you should too. I'm not working anymore, I'm just having fun. Ok, I'm not having weekends anymore, but honestly: my weekends are more fun today than ever. I'm in my shop, creating stuff, preparing stuff for the week, blasting my music on the company stereo - I'll never go back slaving for other people. Never.

[–] Resonosity@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 years ago

Literally me this morning

You know it did. Don't be a jerk about it.

[–] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 years ago

It hurt so much 😭
