how to get up with the first alarm?

or even second or third or fourth? it’s a recurring problem. i sleep a ridiculous amount every day because i have no motivation to wake up.

I will set my alarm and have my meds on the nightstand next to me! I take them and have an alarm set for 15 min later so that my meds will start to kick in. This helps me get that motivation to get up.

Having just one alarm helped me. I realized having a back up, and a back up for a back up created a sense that each one was less serious than the one before it. Putting my alarm away from my bed was a good one. And finally, getting a sunrise alarm clock helped me ease into waking up, not to mention the fact that it mimics natural sunlight created a biological response. I go thrifting and always stumble upon one. Hope this helps!

Put your phone on top of a rumba and set it to take off 5 minutes before. You’ll have to chase it 😂

I tried all kinds of things in the past, but to be honest, once I started my ADHD medicine, now I wake up with one alarm and sometimes just my Apple Watch vibration alarm 🙌🏼🎉 Also, I do have to make sure I’m in bed on time and get enough sleep or it’s still a challenge for me to get up at first 🙃
