If your alarm clock rings, do you turn it off and go back to sleep

I do the same thing before too. Setting alarm to wake up early and not to be late going to the office but it's not effective. So i stopped setting up an alarm. I tried my best to wake up early without an alarm.

If I woke up still too sleepy, I'll set it up again, maybe for 5 to 10 minutes and then I'll get up. I just need some 5 or 10 minute rest before I get up from my bed. But I find the alarm clock really useful. I never abuse it, I really wake up.

Unfortunately I sometimes do that! OR worse, I forget to set the alarm after adjusting what time I want it to go off- like I did this morning

I do too! It's nice to snuggle just a few minutes more. But before that alarm beeps, my body somehow has this built in alarm clock. I usually wake up in the wee hours of the morning just to see how many hours more can I sleep before it beeps, then I doze back to sleep. I usually give myself another 15 minutes more after the alarm beeps, before I wake up and head off to the shower.

I usually turn the alarm off and get back to sleep. But sometimes, i directly wake up and get prepared for work. If i turn it off, after few minutes my girlfriend calls me and wake me up.

hi!! well, i usually woke up when it alarms because as a student a have many things to do preparing myself my breakfast etc. also im scared to be late especially if our clinical instructor is very strict ;].

Haha, believe me when I say this - most people actually do turn the alarm off and go back to sleep, yours truly included! The only exception is that in my case, I press the "snooze" button, so that the alarm actually rings again after a couple of minutes. I normally snooze the alarm for about 4-5 times before actually waking up (unwillingly, of course! ). It is always a nice feeling to tell yourself you can continue sleeping for a little while even after the alarm has gone off.......

My alarm is usually placed somewhere, where I won't be able to reach easily just by stretching my hands, eg on a nearby table. So I'll need to get up to switch it off.

I do that sometimes too- I set an alarm but then when i think it's too early and I still need to get more sleep, I just snooze it for a few minutes. Fortunately I never get late for school.

It depends. I usually ste my alarm clock an hour earleir than my intended wajke up call. I get awaken by the clock but I had the tendency to turn it off and sleep for a few more minutes (that sometime sleads to an hour). At least, I get up on time and still steal a few winks before actually getting out of bed.

I am having this kind of habit.I will immediately cut the alarm and sleep for another 5 to 10 min then only i will wake up...

hi i am rahul from india!!! hi dear your son is really funny who off aleays the alarm og the clock and slepp again. and after that he always go to late school. its like a any funny comedy video dear.

i usually alarm my clock 10-15minutes my desired alarm time, i usually get lazy of waking up so i just turn it of and go back to sleep and most perfectly i wake up after 10-15minutes hehe

HaHahahaha... I too have the same problem. I am not joking. But I too have the same habit of turning off my alarm clock when it rings in the early morning. I set my alarm at night. When it rings in the morning, I set "snooze" on the alarm until it completes two or three more rounds and after that I turn it off. I have been doing this for more than 2 years. But I found a solution for this funny behaviour of mine. Now I am placing two alarms at the two corners of my bed-room. I set bothe the alarms so that they ring at the same time. So, I have to walk to both the ends of my room and turn them both off. In this way, I wont feel sleepy after turning my alarms off! Try the same idea with your son . It might work!

Hi Dear Macayadann! I have my mobile phone as my Alarm clock and I have set one tune of instrumental music from one old Hindi movie which is very sweet one! I like that music very much and I feel happy to start my day with that sweet music! Since it is set once and the option of every day has been selected I need not set this Alarm on daily basis.Previously I used to get up immediately after the alarm has started to enjoy the tune! Now since I have postponed my work by one hour, now a days I listen to the tune completely before putting it off just to get after one hour later, when I am woken up by my farm watchman! I think there is some similarity between your son and me, No? LOL! Thanks for the discussion!

Hi! I do this too. I'm the kind of person who is hard to wake up. I use my phone as my alarm clock. When it rings, I snooze it for 5 minutes. Sometimes, I take 2-3 snoozes before I actually get up I'm usually not late but I get just in the nick of time. Though I love the sleep and the snoozes, I find that I would need to hurry preparing to go so I won't be late.

I don't have the option of a snooze button on my alrm clock. When it rings, it is just wise for me to get out of bed and get moving for the day. if i were to fall back asleep, my daughter would miss her schoolbus then i would be running her off to school instead because i didnt abide my alarm clock.

Yes i do turn off and sleep back. Actually i always put more then one alarm as in one time alarm i can't wake up. So i do put more then one and always wake up after last alarm. As when i turn off alarm before i check the time. Good day!

aren't we supposed to turn it off when it rings and then go back to sleep? i thought that was the law! hehehe

according to me you do one thing alarm keep far away from him when alarm starts ringing then he couldn't turns it off and he easily wake up in the morning and always be in time for school . please try to this method. thank you.
