The more alarms you set the more desensitized you'll get. Set one and set it at a time you'll actually wake up at. Not some pretend time you lied to yourself about

Says the guy who wakes up for alarms

I've struggled with ADHD my entire life. I have plenty of sympathy for people who struggle with functioning within "normal" operations. What I said was not from a place of judgement but from one of personal experience. If you are able you should shape your life around what you naturally do already. It will make you feel superhuman the things you can achieve when you can strive toward them on your own terms

Once you've fucked up a few times the stress resensitizes you

I got through it by setting one alarm on my phone, moving my phone out of arms reach (across the room), and setting the volume on high. It was very annoying but it worked.

I wake up at the first alarm 90% of the time, the rest are for the nights where I get no sleep and the mornings that just dont work. Better safe then sorry type deal

Yeah I don't get it, you're making the last bit of sleep worse than it needs to be. Wake up at the time you actually need to wake up and don't interrupt your sleep and you'll feel much better!

I see it a lot with younger people. Especially folks still in school. Unfortunately for the students the world is built by their elders who are more often than not larks. Which is counter to how most younger people sleep

I'll do that when I actually have to be somewhere, because I don't see the point of making my last half hour of sleep shitty and I really have to get up anywah, but I'll definitely snooze on the weekends. I'll set my alarm at a time I find reasonable, but I'll often wake up and think 'fuck it, it's Saturday' and sleep in anyway lol
