I’ll never get heavy sleepers like that. Ever. Like, you KNOW you need to get up, you hear the stuff meant to wake you up. Why can’t you just get up? xD
I set three alarms one day: the first by my bed, the other two on the far side of the room, and each one twenty minutes apart. I woke up at 12.30 with all three alarms deactivated and no memory of having turned them off.
Get an old-fashioned wind-up alarm clock and put it in a lockable tin box. Put the key to the lock in a large jug half-full of cold water – if you live in a hot location you may need to add ice before sleeping so it is cold enough next morning. When the alarm goes off you can only stop it by unlocking the box, so have to put your arm in the cold water. It’s hard to stay asleep under those conditions!
My sister used to be like this, until one morning she slept through her alarm, but I didn’t. Frustrated, I went into her room, yanked her pillow out from under her head, and hit her with it.
She says she hasn’t slept through an alarm since….
When I get a new alarm clock that sounds different, the noise alone doesn’t wake me. I have to learn the sound so I recognize it as the signal to wake up.
i wonder the connection that he made XD misterous misterious connection
