hais 207 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 I don't know if im the only one but I always tend to wake up 30 mins to an hour before my alarm goes off. Whether it be for school or some kind of event, I just wake up. I try to go back to sleep but then I keep waking up 5+ mins afterwards and its a cycle if I go back to sleep again before I have to get up. I don't know if it's because I have this fear of being late but i hate living this lifestyle (its been years ). Is there any way I can do to stop this? This only happens when I have my alarm on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minju 1,046 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 That happens to me but I usually wake up 4-5 minutes before the alarm goes off. Which is even creepier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imsomessedup 32 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 that ain't paranoia that's your built-in alarm clock i have it too sleep 30 minutes earlier i'd worry if it forced you to wake up within the 3 hour mark before your desired time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myugyu 1,660 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 If it's making you anxious then maybe you should seek professional help? I mean this happened to me a few times throughout my life. It only usually happens when I'm suppose to wake up for something really important, for instance, if I have an early flight, or a big exam, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try to sleep earlier some days but I usually can't so I stop If it's making you anxious then maybe you should seek professional help? I mean this happened to me a few times throughout my life. It only usually happens when I'm suppose to wake up for something really important, for instance, if I have an early flight, or a big exam, etc. Well, it's not really a huge deal but it does make me feel super tired/sleepy throughout the school day orz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaegirl 2,273 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 I have this too. I know it can be rather annoying at times but I just got out of bed and continued on with my day whenever I'm awake because I can't go back to sleep after I woke up. Are you perhaps nervous to go to school for some reasons? It sounds like your consciousness that's waking you up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arceersro 1,004 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 it happens to me, too. i usually wake up like 5-10 minutes before the alar rings. i guess i just really dont want to bother other people in the house with my noisy alarm ringtone ahaha even though they probably won't even hear it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you perhaps nervous to go to school for some reasons? It sounds like your consciousness that's waking you up. I also feel like this could trigger myself to wake up. Like, i don't feel nervous or scared at all when I go to school but I usually wonder if i would be doing any projects/presentations/talks soon in class (and i hate those; especially when im in the center of attention) But this also happens when i need to wake up for early flights, etc. so idrk what to do anymore At least you can sleep. I can't sleep. It takes 4-5 hours to fall asleep for me I only sleep 2 hours a night. omg I used to have insomnia too!! But then my mom took me to a Chinese doctor and made me drink this bitter herbal medicine and idk if it was that that "cured" me that really sucks, have you seek professional help for that?

It doesn't even take a presentation to give me pressure, just the fact that being late in my school makes it so hard to go into class. It's just, school as a reason. :\ Thankfully I've graduated but I still do not need any alarms till now. If it starts to affect you too much, I would suggest you might need to see a doctor.
