We all agree that sleeping is great, but at what specific hour does it stop being a relaxing luxury and start feeling like I've completely ruined my day and wasted my life?

I made Callora: Wake Up Call app

Yesterday I published this app named Callora which rings you at a specific time.

At some point I want it to play a voice note or a recording but I am not sure if there are other people who want to hear the voice of a loved one every morning.

Would really appreciate if you try this out and do let me know if there is any feedback. Also any features that I should add into it?

How to even wake up on time when u literally dont hear the alarm clock??

I get so deaf while sleeping . I dont hear when the alarm went off. I am honestly done with myself:)

i am wasting my trip because i can’t wake up on time!

Me and my boyfriend came to Iceland for the week. Day one we got super drunk and slept in late the next day. Day two he got sick and we slept in again. And then the next two days we have slept in until 10-11 o clock for no reason. Even though we set an alarm. Our bed is just too comfortable and it feels impossible to wake up in the morning. It is really bumming me out because the days go by so much quicker when we wake up later, since we spend most of our days driving to places 2-3 hours away. And then by the time we get back, all the restaurants are closed and we are completely beat. Does anybody have any tips or tricks to help with this issue?

I have tried all 3 of these alarms at once and I still can’t wake up

Alarmy, Bellman Alarm Clock Pro with bed shaker, (literally 150 dollars) and a shock watch from amazon. All three at once and I still sleep through it somehow. The only way I’ve gotten up recently was by someone shaking me awake while my alarms had been blaring in the background for HOURS. Yes I am trying to do a sleep study and sleep enough at night. I have tried alarms that start to light up gradually, have tried to open the blinds so the light wakes me, no dice. I am about to lose my job and it’s absolutely humiliating and I’m terrified to go to sleep at night because I know I’m going to wake up to missed calls and my boss having to send people to check on me. It’s so embarrassing and people have given me grace about it, but they can only deal with so much.

Please, if anyone has recommendations for an alarm clock that could wake someone up from a coma let me know. I will pay up to 1,000 dollars at this point I cannot keep living like this😹😹😹😹😐

How do people actually get out of bed on time without feeling miserable every morning?

I’ve tried alarms across the room, sleep apps, no phone before bed, sleeping earlier, all of it. Somehow I still wake up feeling like I got hit by a truck. What genuinely helped you become a functional morning person in 2026?

how to wake up as a HEAVY SLEEPER

Things I already tried and they didn’t worked out:
- setting two alarms (one on phone one on alarm clock)
- putting my alarm clock in the other part of my room
- all those apps that makes u do math or excercise (I delate them while basically still asleep)
- really loud alarm right beside my head or under pillow
- someone calling me (I pick up, talk for a while and fall asleep again)
- sleeping in bright/cold room
- not useing my phone 2h before bed
- sleeping in sitting position
The main problem is that no matter what I’ll do I’m going back to sleep, I could sleep for 3h or 16h, I just can’t wake up on time, like the first 30mins up to 1 and half hour my brain is still asleep and sabotaging me :(( After summer I will me moving out to collage and my parents won’t be able to wake me up. This is geniuenlly ruining my life, I’m always in rush and late which makes people angry at me, I don’t want to live like this.

Pavlok Watch has failed us-what now?

My husband has a hard time waking up and apparently has been this way his entire life. After complaining about his alarms waking me up going off over and over, we have tried the pavlok watch. He has it set to 100% shock and to continuously shock until he scans a QR code. It worked maybe the first week or two and now he sleeps through it. Sometimes taking off the watch, sometimes he is genuinely sleeps through it. I am still physically waking him up daily. Do we have any other options? Has anyone found out a medical reason for this?????
