You probably stay up late and need to wake up early. Solution: Go to bed early.

Well the first year I lived on my own I had 1 nor 2 but 3 alarm clocks and my mom had to call me in the morning several times to wake me up. Also don't forget my alarm clock on my cell phone. Getting up in the morning is a habit that you have to keep in line. For some people it is easy but for others it is a skill. Put a alarm clock on the other side of the room with a loud annoying beeping noise, when it goes off in the morning you will have to get out of bed to turn it off - BUT DO NOT GO BACK TO BED AFTER, Works likes a charm.

I am also a heavy sleeper, and this is what I do. I set the alarm for the time that I want to get up, and I put the alarm clock somewhere fairly far away from my bed. I also turn it on really loud. So then when it goes off I can't ignore it or shut it off immediately so I have to get up and walk to shut of the alarm, which usually wakes me up. Well, that's what works for me anyway!

I agree with the urge to pee will wake you up, but honestly that can make you relatively uncomfortable if you drink that much in a short period of time. I say multiple alarm clocks around the room, hide one the night before. I find that alarms with buzzers or those that ring work better for me because the radio sounds just blend with my dreams. I have three alarmclocks in my room and it takes two or more to wake me up each day. Also, are you more comfortable in a cool or warm environment to sleep? Try to make it a bit warmer (with the thermostat), because then your body won't want to hibernate in the warm sheets as long as you would if your room was cold. or if you can set a fan on an electric timer (easily purchased) and set it to blow cold air on you at a certain time in the morning! g'luck!

Discipline. After you get fired from a few jobs or too many tardies in school, whatever the case may be, you will learn to wake up with an alarm clock. Forget all the stupid tricks and tell yourself you will wake up in the morning, and quit making excuses that you can't do it.

They make alarm clocks that shake you awake. Deaf and blind people use them. If sound won't wake up up from sleep, maybe the shaking will.

Also, you might want to consider getting an appropriate amount of sleep for yourself. If you know you can't function without 12 hours of sleep, make time for it and then you may wake up more naturally in the AM. Good luck!

Get to a truck stop and buy a "Screaming Meemie" alarm. This is not a clock, but a alarm you set to go off in x hours. If you set it for 8 hrs, you will only need it to go off once. The fear of that noise will wake you up just b4 it goes off again. PS. It takes a light on, 2 hands and coordination to shut it off!!

Alright. i have a solution. get a large bucket of ice cold water, and glue it to a shelf above your bed. Get an alarm clock, and rig the shelf up to flip and pour the ice water on your head exactly four seconds after the alarm clock rings. Not only will it teach you to wake up whenever the alarm clock rings, but it'll also improve your reflexes.

Have a really loud alarm clock that you can't turn off except by getting out of bed to do it - put it on the other side of the room.

Before you go to sleep at night, drink a lot of water. It's an old American Indian alarm clock.

What you do is as you lay down to sleep you tell yourself "gotta get up at 5(or whatever time)" Visualize the clock with the hands and make it go around to midnight to 2AM,3AM, to 5AM and see your eyes open as you get out of bed refreshed.

Do that visulization a couple times with your eyes closed in the dark.

It sound hokey but it works. You set your body clock. I get up within 15 minutes of the time I set in my head...as I have multiple shift jobs.

I can sleep thru lightning storms and rain torrents and telephone ringing in the same room.
