work sent us all off to a mandatory training.
half of it was about mental health and the instructor went on and on how bad it is to be woken by an alarm clock.

is it really?

I suppose that my work wouldn't like prople strolling in at 5am or 11 depending on individual rhythms...

I set an alarm but tend to wake up a little bit before it goes off. No idea why! I could not relax if I didn't set the alarm as then I'd think I wouldn't wake up in time

This is me, rarely woken up by an alarm but if I don't set one I wake up every hour.

Waking up by alarm is terrible. Do you not have anyone who could wake you gently by pan pipes?

I'm terrible at getting up in the morning. I would love to train myself.

I can sleep through multiple alarms, go back to bed after the toilet, sleep on the edge of a knife. It's worse since kids!

I leave my curtains slightly open and when the sun comes up it wakes me. This is not useful in the UK in deep winter lol so I also set an alarm.
