Do you use an alarm to wake up?

[Kimmy]

Odd question. Usually when I have to get up at a certain time, I either set one alarm or none at all because I usually go to sleep exactly 8 hours before if i can so my mind's used to getting up after a certain amount of sleep.

Matt has THE WORST alarms. One of them sounds like a school Bell which he physically has to get up to turn off. This just alerts him that it's 30 mins until he gets up to prepare him. Then he has like 10381 mini alarms on his phone to wake him up near 5.

How do you wake yourself? Can you reliably get up in the mornings?

Without that alarm plus my alarms on the phone I wouldn't get up in time for work!

I have one alarm. I need one to wake me up but luckily once it wakes me up that's it, can't go back to sleep

I have an alarm, but a lot of the time I don't use it.

When I stay out I have an alarm and he has two, one on his phone which is horrific, the other just for the sake of it. lol.

I have one alarm and it usually just wakes me up but sometimes when I'm super sleepy, I tend to ignore it and just like turn over but then I'd sit there and forget my alarm went off so it'd be awks

Oh god, yes. I have at least 6 alarms. I usually sleep through the first 3/4. Haha. Depending on how deep of a sleep I get.

I have an alarm which I usually then hit snooze on every 10 mins for about the next hour or so until I finally decide to get up or give up and turn it off entirely

I set loads of alarms. I like to know I have time to sleep in so I wake myself up early.

Then they go off every 10 minutes for the hour before I need to get up. Only because I worry I wont get up.
