      How to wake up people?

      The only downside I have by sleeping really deep is that people almost can't wake me up. Many have tried for hours shouting my name and waken me up and continued like this, because I sort of wake up but fall to sleep again instantly. I myself don't remember anything of this, so people might be really mad at me when I finally wake up, saying that they have tried maybe 15 times without any luck. It's actually also been that I have been angry in these comments.

      Are there any good ways of waking up people like me? I figured out that moving people is way better than trying to say/shout. Hopefully someone has lots of good ideas.

      yeah, It's really hard to wake up, especially monday mornings. It's hard cause for example, when I"m tired, I tend to neglect my responsibilities since I"m not conscious enough to realize it, , I know how you feel. I often have nasty mornings with my ears hurting, and I could vaguely recall my mom constantly yelling at me
      and trust me, Alarm clocks won't work. It's better than people getting frustrated at you, but that doens't work for me cause I grew built in instincts to automatically switch turn off the alarm clock the second I hear it ringing. and I tried two alarm clocks. The first two weeks was horrible. I'd have nightmares of the alarm clock, like I'd dream an annoying guy making those beeping sounds and I'd sleep like that for about hour until I finally woke up with my ears blasted. Then I grew built in systems to shoot my arms to each alarm clock, automatically turn it off and go back to sleep.
      And so, i think it takes mental powers to wake up in the morning. No matter what devices you use, you can always get used to it or build instincts to stop it, but if you meditate and practice each night, wakign up the moment you're out of sleep instead of swaying back to sleep, you might be able to wake up right.
      I also heard that if you tell yourself, after waking up, to go and open the window for a second to get the fresh air in, and you promise yourself to sleep right after, you can wake up because the fresh air might drive your sleepiness away.

      This always got me up for school 100%:
      Its annyoing as hell, but have someone pour some water on you. Your face works best.
      My stepdad would get a bucket of water, not a cup, a bucket. I hated him every moring, but it was sure to get me up.

      I know this is counter-productive and against schedules, but you should let people sleep and make them adjust naturally to time changes. Let them sleep in now and let their sleep patterns change internally.

      How many hours do you sleep? Is someone trying to wake you up after only getting about 6 hours of sleep? It's possible, too, that when you're having to wake up you're in a deeper sleep stage, making it more difficult and longer for you to get up. Do you remember dreaming when you wake up?

      I'm usually a fairly light sleeper so I'm not really sure what you should do.

      a good point for waking up on time, is to go to sleep earlier, so you actually feel like waking up when your supposed to.

      I know it's pretty much impossible to do most the time, but when you do it really helps.
      Long you live and high you fly
      And smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry
      And all you touch and all you see
      Is all your life will ever be.
