Do you use an alarm to wake up, and if so, do you ever sleep through it?

[Extraterrestrial1999]

Yeah, alarm on phone, and sometimes I miss it

Yeah, sometimes the alarm on my phone wouldn't come on

Yeah, but I never sleep through it

Nah, just get up when I get up lol

Nah, my body is just programmed to get up at the same time and/or on time

I do use an alarm clock to wake up but not a smartphone since I don't have one. No, I use a good old fashioned alarm clock that I set for 6am, day in and day out, Saturdays and Sundays included.

I have my routine and it does not matter whether it is dark outside or light, whether rain or sunshine, my alarm goes up invariably at the same time since about 5 years unless I am on vacation with my sister or family. I do adapt my wake up time with those family members I share a room with.

I tend to wake up earlier than others and then I just lay in my bed, meditating until the other party wakes up.

I set an alarm but usually end up waking up a little before it goes off. It’s more of a back-up than anything, in case I miss that time fram

I've always got up about six every morning on my own no alarm. I also went better early. I enjoyed being up early to catch the serenity of the peacefulness of the morning hours. It was great. Now that I'm in my '70s I have no responsibilities and I still wake up around 6:00 in the morning.

Back in the day I used to use an alarm clock & nowadays I use one of my old flip phones as an alarm because always works.

Actually the neighborhood 🐓 rooster wakes me up.

[Dongie]

An alarm cock!

@Dongie
Exactly!! 🤣🤣

[RavVid]

Funny. What time does he go off?

Sometimes the wild cockatoos next door wake me up if I have slept through my alarm. They go off at 07:30 am.

@Ravid
Actually a friend of mine gave him a name - annoying Roosey.
He wakes me up at 6:30 am 🙂

[RavVid]

Nice... does it vary from summer to winter? The cockatoos seem to be permanently set to 7:30 in summer and winter. We are going into winter so they should getting later and later but are not. I guess they are adjusting to human time.

I have a very natural alarm conditioned in to my brain somehow. I always wake up 5 to 10 minutes before and shut it off. Very rarely will it need to sound off.

[RandomUser1000]

I use alarm to get up and it works like 99,9% of the time.

[Dongie]

Uh, I do if I have to be up at a certain time. And the electricity has gone out during the night and didn't go off. But I would wake up at about the time anyway.

[Vevv123]

I have 😬
