Do you feel more tired if you wake up before your alarm?

I have 2-3 alarms I set on my phone. Usually the first one is about 15mins before I actually have to wake up so I don't have too much snoozing time. When my first alarm goes off I usually lie in bed and try to get the energy to get up by the time my second alarm goes off. It seems that if I do wake up before my alarm though I feel real tired or cranky but I am not sure why. I usually look at the time and if its more than 30mins until I have to wake up I will go back to sleep so I am not sure if it's the whole process or going back to sleep but I feel extremely tired..What about you?

It depends alot on when I ate the night before. I figured that out once. but I hate waking up before my alarm with a passion. 3o minutes before and I am like you, I judt go back to bed. but I can't stand waking up right before it goes off. It just mentally starts my day off wrong.

I totally understand what you mean. If I wake up minutes before my alarm it just upsets my day mentally as well.

It really doesn't bug me that much. I mean, if I wake up like 30 ,minutes ahead of time, ti does bug me because it's too short of a time to go back to sleep, but too long to get out of bed. I don't mind if I wake up a few minutes before it goes off though.

I'm actually kind of happy if I wake up before my alarm. I mean, I don't have to be awoken abruptly from a dream. But, I must admit, that sometimes, I am still tired if I wake up before my alarm. On the other hand, I'm tired even when I wake up as my alarm goes off.
