Are you strong enough to immediately get out of bed in the morning?

Question

I used to be a serious snoozer. But I read that snoozing is bad for you and actually makes you more tired, plus I thought this was a nice chance to exercise my willpower a bit. I put my really anannoying loud alarm far from where I could reach it in bed so as to force myself out, and turns our they're right. I only slept 4.5 hours last night (I'll admit, I was busy masturbating) and actually feel more rested than if I were to sleep say 6-6.5 hours and snoozer for 30 minutes...

Try it.

Here is the trick : you need adrenaline in your body if you want to jump out of bed in a second if you have not taken a average sleep of 8 hrs. So for your trick either put a spider or cockroach on yourself then jump out. NO, I am just kidding as soon as you wake up do not turn of the alarm soon let it ring. Start taking deep and fast breath for fora minutes like 20—30 breathe , then lay on your chest do 5 push - up. And you are ready you will easily stand up. Get your morning drink do more exercise and no way you will sleep again and better if you find fresh cold air.

I'm a dairy farmer and have to get up real early most the time (sometimes 2:00 am) but yeah it deffinately takes a lot of willpower and does suck but you have so much more time and energy throughout the day. You do still run out of energy but let's say you get up real early, no snooz. And then you take a 20 min nap in the middle of the day, that's about as efficient as you can get

Yeah -.- Sadly
Military man, if something moves, if a door opens in the house, a drop of water in some tap, someone walking outside or in the house, I'm up. I've figured out ways to supress it a little but its still there man, a real pain in the ass. Good thing is I can put my head down anywhere and sleepp but I'll sleep lightly everywhere I do dose off

Most of the time- yes. But then, I'm a morning person to start with and I rarely actually wake up to my alarm, it's only back-up and goes off 2 hrs before I have to leave anyway.
Usually, I get right up, do some stretching, then start my day.
But every now and then, when I'm really tired, or I'm just really warm and cozy and it's freezing cold or storming out, I take an extra 15-20 minutes in bed. I don't hit snooze on my alarm or anything, more in my head and I'll sort of doze for a bit or just lay there enjoying the quiet and the warm, cozy feeling.

IndependentGal15 · Answer

I have an alarm on my iPad that's right on the ground by my bed, I just lean down go to the clock app, and put a timer for 5 more minutes. I go back to bed, I'm in that half awake half asleep, and I know I'll have to wake up so when it goes off again, I get up right away.

Hidden_P · Answer

It depends.
Through the week I stay with my boyfriend. We set our alarm for 7am, he starts work at 8am, I start at 9:30. So he gets up and has a shower and I stay in bed until about 7:45 - get up to make his breakfast.
At the weekend I start work at 6:30am so I set my alarm about 5:30 and fall out of bed into my uniform and walk to work.

So, I'm more of a snoozer in the week than I am at the weekend.

SirenDep · Answer

I try to exercise my willpower so I don't sleep too late, because the next day I can't wake up. I don't even hear the alarm. I 'm capable of waking up and then sleeping again. I can get up and be still in a sleepy state, until I eat breakfast and drink coffee. I need 7,5 hours of sleep to be able to wake up easily.

Mesonfielde · Answer

Yeah that's fun and all but 4.5 hours of sleep makes you more aware because your body doesn't get rested enough, if you do that consistently for about 3-4 days you'll eventually just pass out for 9-10 hours.

But yeah if you do need a snooze every 5 minutes that just disrupts your sleep pattern, you may as well put the alarm to be 30 minutes later.

Kamio · Answer

The moment I woke up - even if it was 3 or 4 in the morning I could not go back to sleep. Once I was up I was up... no morning zombie or non functioning person here.

I definitely think it is better.

I blame my last partner... he was a cronic snoozer and I decided to give it a go and have had serious trouble breaking the habit. It definitely makes you more tired.

Tirana · Answer

It depends on which part of my mental cycle I'm in at the time. If I'm in an okay to great feeling, I can get up easily with little pep talk needed.

If however I am in depressive mode, it takes a lot for me to even get up to pee.

When I have to be somewhere, I get up first alarm. But that's generally only when I end up staying at V's house overnight and then have to go get my kid.

Illusive_Man · Answer

Oh hell yeah.  With the help of TECHNOLOGY! I've set up my laptop to play this video at max volume every day at 5:30AM. Feels like Superman.

linkywinky · Answer

No. The only reason I got up was because my dog was trying to take over my bed and push me out of it. Even now I'm eyein' it with all its pillows and blankets and seriously considering snoozing til I have to work at 4. I'm just so not in the mood for wakefulness today.

Shutupman · Answer

I usually can get out of bed immediatly especially if I have to work. Sometimes my body just reacts on it's own like I'm jumping out of bed ( in a ninja way) but I'm not even realizing what I'm doing or just opening my eyes :p lol must look weird haha

My friends managed to get me an alarm clock mat for Christmas. I put it by the bedroom door so my getting up is inevitable

HollywoodGlam · Answer

Back when I was in elementary school, middle school, and high school I used to immediatly get out of bed, I had no choice, lol. School was far away and we started it early 8:00 am. I have to admit that Monday mornings were a bit hard for me, lol.
Now I don't need to wake up early, therefore I don't force myself to get out of bed. I take my time to get out of bed.

Schneidy · Answer

In the summer I find it easy to wake up and get out of bed, winter not so much... I'll spend anywhere from 5-30 minutes trying to convince myself it's a good idea to leave my nice warm cocoon of bedding.

Anonymous · Answer

this must be something unique to each individual and you're assuming it applies to everyone cuz i feel much more alert and awake if i snooze for 30+ minutes after waking up.

if i have to get out of bed as soon as the alarm goes off i feel groggy a good part of the morning.
