Bear in mind, I'm not a doctor. I hope this helped anyway.  |
It's cool <3 Thanks for your post!
Even if I end up falling asleep at let's say... 9pm, I still somehow wake up at 11pm/12pm the next day. So sleeping earlier doesn't really seem to make some sort of effect. I've been trying it for years.

Wow... I never thought of that! I guess I could give it a try tonight and see what happens.

If it continues, though, you should probably pop to a doctor, just to make sure there's no issues. From memory, I think iron deficiency can cause you to be more tired, so it could even be something as simple as that.

I might have to see a doctor soon about it. The last time I saw one, I did have iron problems, but this was years ago and the issue was sorted out. So hmm... Guess I'll see.

Like I said above, sleeping earlier just comes up with the same results. It's worse because I sleep in more if I sleep earlier.

Edit: worst comes to worst, buy an industrial-strength alarm clock. Something that makes a smoke detector caliber noise. It won't be fun, but it'll get you up.

I should hire a personal jet just to sonic-boom past my window every morning. It could work, but all the glass and roof and everything would just shatter. I need something loud man. :/

If even that doesn't work, there may be a different problem. Some people become oblivious to ALL things when they're asleep (it's a condition I can't name), sorta like the deepest sleep you can imagine. In this case, I believe there may be prescription electrocution alarm clocks, although I MAY have made those up.

I might have to look into that if everything else fails and I end up seeing a doctor. From what I know, I sleep like a damn log and noises rarely wake me up, unless it's a car going through the front door or something. I sleep through dogs barking and people knocking on my door everyday.
