How the heck do I get up on time?

[MegBee21]

I can never get up on time, I'll literally hit snooze 20 times (not kidding, sometimes more) and then I get in trouble... How can I actually get up on time?

[meatballs21]

Go to bed early. If you have trouble falling asleep, tire yourself out by exercising, have a hot bath or shower, read a book, DON'T use your phone or computer or TV or anything with a backlit screen for at least an hour before bed.

You've said elsewhere that you'd just ignore your alarm if you put it on the other side of the room? There are two solutions to that:
1. Get an alarm so obnoxious you CAN'T ignore it... or your family members can't. You can get alarm clocks for people who are deaf/hard of hearing that are incredibly loud, will shake your bed violently and will wake the whole house up.
2. Get the hell up. You are the one deciding to hit snooze.

I'm not deaf, just tired XD

And thx!!

[meatballs21]

Thanks for MHO. Good luck. I've struggled with getting enough sleep or even falling asleep for a long time.

[MegBee21]

Np, and thanks :) and good luck to you too if ur still having trouble with it

Try to go to sleep sooner so you get more sleep. Or worst case, put your cell phone/alarm clock/etc. somewhere else in your room so your only choice is to get out of bed and walk over to turn it off. Then you'll be forced to get up.

[MegBee21]

I would just ignore it... >:( dumb myself XD

I set two alarms, one for half an hour before I have to get up. Tricks your brain into thinking you've got extra half hours sleep. Also wakes you out of deep sleep.

sleep at 5:00 pm on a regular day. wake up at 3-5 am and get ready.
repeat, it is what i do on a regular basis except for weekends.

Say out loud I'm going to count to 5 then get up. Then count to 5 and summon your non-existent motivation. Then get up and bolt straight for the showers. If you can fall back to sleep in the showers then oh my

I used to put my clock on my dresser at the far end of my room. The ONLY way to hit the snooze was to get out of bed to get to it.

[MegBee21]

Maybe I'll try it, thanks

Go to sleep earlier, and put your alarm away from your bed so you actually have to get up to turn it off rather than have it fight next to you.

[trumpetplayerforlife]

Go to bed earlier and drink energy drinks that morning

[MegBee21]

I'll try the bed earlier, but me and my family' believe energy drinks are unhealthy

[Mesonfielde]

Put your first alarm a bit later and try to force yourself to sleep earlier

[Water2008]

Move your phone into the other room so you have to walk over to turn it off.

[MegBee21]

Maybe...

[APRU5]

Same, spring ahead doesn't healp either does it?

[MegBee21]

Nope... dumb time change XD

[APRU5]

I found my self in the same situation this morning.

[MegBee21]

Why can't everyone just sleep in? :(

[APRU5]

Going to school at 9:am would be awesome.

[MegBee21]

I'm homeschooled, but still get in trouble for it...

[APRU5]

Cool, public school is terrible. Our bus drive gets to school 20 minutes before school starts. So we get to wait in the bus lot.

[MegBee21]

I'd rather go to public school then stay home, try to concentrate on school with a baby yelling and a 7 year old yelling all day -_-

[APRU5]

Hahah, makes sense

[MegBee21]

Lol. XD

[Decentguy]
