the only game I play everyday

Wakes up and looks at the clock
"Oh, it's only 7:18. Since my alarm is set to 7:20, I'll just shut it off now and let myself rest for a couple of minutes."
opens eyes again
10:45
- Plot twist, it was Tuesday 7:18am and Wednesday 10:45pm!
  Also, your kidneys are gone.

You gotta just stand up. Even if you walk around with your eyes barely open, it's better than laying back down. Waking up in the middle of a shower is a heck of a lot better than waking up late for work
- Oh, "just stand up" you say? Wow, after that I could "just get everything important done" and "just make everyone happy".
  I have a better idea: I'm gonna go back to sleep.
  
  I don't know if it'll help you, but I envision myself as having two mes: Sleep Me and Awake Me. Sleep Me is an asshole who'll ruin my life just to stay asleep for as long as possible. He fights tooth and nail to keep Awake Me from taking control of my body. ”I'm gonna go back to sleep" is Sleep You talking. They're trying their hardest to convince Awake You that you can't possibly stand up until Sleep You has had their fill of sleep, but it's not like "just be happy" or "just pay attention–" you can control your legs!
- You gotta just stand up.
  That's the hard part.
  
  It's very easy once you realize you're late.
  
  It's not if you put your phone out of grabbing reach and use an annoying alarm.
- But I wake up so snug tho and just need a few more mins
  
  That's Sleep You talking! FUCK Sleep You! They don't give a shit about you, or your success in life, or your mental health. They exist solely to make sure you sleep as much as possible and they're given way too much power to achieve that goal
- I get on my phone immediately. Makes it really hard to sleep.
- My one cat usually sleeps on top of me so I can't just stand up. And when he isn't sleeping on me and the alarm goes off, he'll come in running for snuggles and make me fall asleep again.
  
  Cats are truly our greatest enemy in life. My Athena doesn't much care for Awake Me, but as soon as I fall asleep she wants to be as close as possible. If I didn't grab my phone, I'd be back to sleep cuddling her as I type this

And why is it the most divine feeling ever too!?
- Willfully ignoring responsibility always feels great.
  
  Until it doesn't..

I set up some smart bulbs and music after I turn off my alarm. Having light and sound stimulation has prevented me from falling back asleep even when I'm so tired I cannot keep my eyes open.
- Yeah, light does actually physiologically wake you up. Sunlight is preferable over lightbulbs though.
  
  Tell that to the folks who extended daylight savings into November.

It would be quite smart if your phone started ringing if you haven't picked it up in 10 min or so after shutting off your alarm.
- Sleep as Android has this along with a ton of other wake up helpers like QRcode/NFC tag scanning to stop the alarm, math problems, etc.
  I found the math worked well at first but I apparently got too good at solving them in my sleep.
  I put an NFC tag in the bathroom which requires me to get out of bed and go into the bathroom to stop the alarm. That's usually enough to get me to stay up
  They also have various CAPTCHA tests, one that requires you to hold your phone and spin around, one that requires you to put the phone up to a light source, and other such things. I'm sure you can find an effective solution that works for you
  
  I tried that years ago with the nfc tag, but qll i learned is to just sleep through my alert
  
  That tag idea is gold, thank you
  
  Unfortunately Sleep as android is not open source

can confirm I have skipped a few hours every time I've tried

Suddenly, it's 9am…!
- More like suddenly it's 11..

I've been there before. It's a danger zone.

That's why I placed my alarm on the other side of the room. This way I have to get my lazy ass out of the bed to turn it off. And then I'm awake anyway.
- I'm such a deep sleeper that I get up, turn off my alarm, and then wake up 4 hours later wondering why my alarm didn't go off.
  
  Wish I had your sleep.
- I can ignore a ringing alarm if I really want to.

The clock app on Android is seriously great software. I have myself playing guitar to wake me up and have trained myself to snooze if I am still in bed.
Now I just need to go to bed on time...

A moment of bliss as you naturally wake up from sleep, followed very closely by a moment of panic.

Me working from home: Well... I only have a meeting at 10.... at worst I stay longer in the afternoon.
