What do you do for an alarm clock if you even use one?

Post Reply New Topic

As part of my Lion King collection. I have two Lion King alarm clocks and never set them. If something violent disrupts my sleeping, I have like a seziure and cannot function for the rest of the day. I NEED my sleep and I need LOTS of it.

My mobile phone placed at the other end of the bed so I have to get out of bed to turn it off

I tried that. Then I started sleeping with my head at the foot of the bed to compensate. I have one of those alarm clocks that gradually beeps louder and more insistently until you turn it off. Works quite well for me.

I use a lamp and a timer. I can't stand anything that beeps loudly and if I set the alarm clock to click on to a radio station, I just stay in bed and listen to the radio until I fall asleep again. So I bought a lamp from Ikea - one that screws into the wall. I put it right over my head and put it on a timer. It sucks getting hit in the face with a bright light, but at least I don't have to deal with the beeping alarm clock! Plus, it's a better motivator than coffee to get moving.

I have a stupid alarm clock that always messes up, usualy if I need to I will hide my mobile phone somewhere.

I have a radio alarm clock which wakes me up with annoying commercial radio. I usually press the snooze button a few times each morning too.

Mobile phone. But I wake up before it has the chance to wake me up anyway.

I tried using regular alarm clocks, but they shocked me a little too much/noise is way too loud.

I don't use one. I wake up long before the alarm anyway. I find that my cats are my most effective alarm clocks.

My cell phone. It has that capability, does not turn off if the power goes down, and I can put it across the room so I must get up to turn it off ( so I don't simply fall back to sleep).

I use my cell phone with a musical alarm. (usually somewhere where I have to get up to turn it off.)

My mum wakes me up, If someone rings or texts me when I'm asleep I usually wake up 'cause I have the "TARDIS" message tone and "Doctor Who theme tune" ring tone - any sound that reminds me of Doctor Who wakes me up. I have a special ring tone for work though - and that doesn't wake me up.

The normal buzzer from my alarm clock. Oddly enough, I seem to be "psyched" to wake up ~5 minutes before the thing actually rings.

Since I can't hear an alarm go off (I'm hard of hearing) I have to use one that has a vibrator and a light that flashes. It works really well! Its also really nice, my brother got one too (for the same reason as me).

ipod, just have to remember to set the volume to the max before going to sleep.
