I don’t even have to get up early, I work nights my alarm is set for like 11am lol. I just want to have a little time before work to hang out at home but my body just refuses.

    That's because when you sleep too long and then wake up in the middle of REM sleep your body wants to do another full sleep cycle. I know cuz I do the same thing and it sucks.

      Oh yeah, I meant to mention that as well. There are some decent apps with alarms that detect when you’re in REM and wake you up at the right time.

        Do you have any recommendations? I haven't tried an app that does that for a loooong time and there are billions of apps on the store.
