Story of my life... The worst is that sometimes I even oversleep the snoozing (which lasts only one hour). |

So I'm just starting out here with the basic first step of trying to keep a dream journal, but I've got the habit of hitting the snooze button on my alarm several times everyday before getting up. If I get up to write down my dreams right away, after getting up the first time, their way more fresh in my head. But then once I'm awake after writing it's hard to justify snoozing. If I try to write after snoozing I find that the main dream is hard to remember, the 5 minute in-between snooze dreams don't tend to be very good. Should I kick the snooze habit? anybody else experience this. Don't you think those inbetween snooze dreams are not very good too? |

If you hit the snooze, YOU LOSE! |

Do you have a journal within arm's reach of where you sleep? If not put a book and pen where you can get to it easily when you wake up. Jot down a few sentences of your main dream first thing when you wake. It only takes a few seconds. And then doze happily off again if you have to. |

haha 3krealms, I have the same snoozing problem! I intentionally set my alarm for 30-45 minutes before I actually have to get up because I hit my snooze 3 or 4 times every morning. It feels like I get to sleep longer this way, but I'm actually getting less sleep because I have to wake up to smack the snooze each time. The only benefit I have with doing this is that I can wake up slowly, over 30 minutes, rather than just jumping out of bed the first time it goes off. But I'm getting a puppy in a couple weeks, so I'll have to kick the snoozing habit... |

I used to have the same problem, but then I got myself one of these and now I hardly ever snooze anymore! :) |
|
LOOOL! Instead of kicking the snooze habit I'd probably just become poor as hell using that thing! |

I always sleep past my alarm, so I have to set it at 5:30 instead of 6. |

maybe try to set up you alarm away from where you can't hit the snooze button. This will make you stand up to turn off the darn alarm |

Aw, that must suck. I'm lucky that my snooze button is so small and hard to get to [I think my first alarm doesn't have one so I just make the rock music go mute], but I have the same issue with writing the dream when you remember it the the best, I just go back to sleep and wait for my second alarm to go off at 5:30 [so that I don't over sleep and can successfully do a WBTB]... I don't even record the dream then, I wait 'til about twelve hours later where I might have forgotten it. |
