Sleepless Mornings
I am so sick of this.
I’ve been waking up at random hours of the morning before my alarm goes off and it’s bugging the heck outta me. One thing I hate the most is being woken up within an hour before my alarm goes off. It irks the heck outta me and it’ll usually make me grumpy for most of the day. But now I’m waking up throughout the morning before my alarm goes off and it’s driving me insane. I think it’s built up anxiety since I slept through work one time and a month later was 2 hours late for my most important class- my internship. I figured out later that I had to keep my cell phone on my bookshelf away from me instead of in bed with me, so that I wouldn’t subconsciously put it on snooze so many times. But even with that in mind, I still can’t convince my mind to sleep through the mornings. Just Monday I woke up at every hour from 6am-10am and I didn’t even have to get up till 11… The one day of the week I get a 12:30 class and I can’t sleep through the morning. One week, it was every day!! Sometimes it even happens with my naps. I have to take these 40min naps in between class and work otherwise I’m doomed when it comes down to homework time. I wake up in a frenzy, reach for my phone to figure out whether or not I’m late, and then put my phone back, lay back down and try to fall back asleep. It’s nuts and it’s been going on for weeks now and no matter how hard I try, I just can’t get myself to sleep through the morning… and the grumpy days just keep on coming.

I’ve done that before. Slept through a work morning. I felt very unprofessional and embarrassed – but they made me work til 3AM the night before!! Anyway, it totally messes with you cuz you’re scared of oversleeping again. But then I employed this tactic – if you know you HAVE TO HAVE TO wake up for something important the next day, drink water before bed. By morning, you’ll have to get up regardless of the snooze or alarm. Then all other days, just whatever, relax. But yea, you sound stressed out. Plus maybe all that partying with us messed up your sleeping schedule. Hehe. We’ll try to tone it down come Christmas.
