The more alarms you set the more desensitized you'll get. Set one and set it at a time you'll actually wake up at. Not some pretend time you lied to yourself about
Says the guy who wakes up for alarms
I've struggled with ADHD my entire life. I have plenty of sympathy for people who struggle with functioning within "normal" operations. What I said was not from a place of judgement but from one of personal experience. If you are able you should shape your life around what you naturally do already. It will make you feel superhuman the things you can achieve when you can strive toward them on your own terms
Once you've fucked up a few times the stress resensitizes you
I got through it by setting one alarm on my phone, moving my phone out of arms reach (across the room), and setting the volume on high. It was very annoying but it worked.
