Why does not my alarm wake me up in the morning?

Question

I set my alarm, and in the mornings it could be going off for 15-30 minutes before i even here it?

Does anybody have any solutions to my problem?

I have one of the loudest alarms you can buy, and my hearing is just fine.

Answer 4

Maybe your just a real deep sleeper

Maybe you should get one of them ones that light up to like give the illusion of a sunrise because that wakes some people up, I think you can get them from Argos :)

Answer 5

good luck, i have the same problem and i have yet to find a solution to it. I have to get up @ 4 am for work, so the only thing that gets me up is that my husband stays up all night, and then shakes me, bugs me, etx until i get up. Other then that no matter how much i spend on an alarm clock or how loud it is ( and i have had both) nothing every works.  

Answer 6

it can be because you are used to that sound and have trained your body to ignore it so try a new alarm  

Answer 7

Go to bed earlier

Answer 8

Maybe your mind has gotten used to the sound of the alarm. Thats what happened to me. I used my cell alarm to wake me up in the morning and a couple weeks later of doing that it just didnt wake me up anymore. Maybe you could change the alarm noise, or something like that.

Answer 9

I had trouble with getting up when I was doing early shifts so I got a clock radio and tuned it into a station that was more static than music (long wave) at full blast, and it used to drive me so mad I had to get up.

Now how you stop yourself from getting back into bed is the next problem...........

Answer 10

Maybe you need a couple alarm clocks.. Or have somebody physically wake you up. You're obviously just a hard sleeper..Nothing wrong with that. They sell alarm clocks for those of us who love to roll over, turn it off, and fall back asleep. It's called a helicopter alarm clock. It's got a helicopter like propeller on the top and when the alarm goes off, it flies off. The only way to turn it off is to get up, find the Propellers, and put it back on the clock.

Answer 11

Well your just a heavy sleeper apparntley. I use my cell phone alarm and use the loudest ringtone, maybe try that. LOL! [:

Answer 12

It's because you are in really deep sleep and your body is exhausted! What you can do fix this? NOTHING! Tell yourself before you go to sleep i will wake up at ???? (insert time here) over and over until you fall asleep. It worked for me!!

Also have a baby that worked for me! Up at 6:00 o'clock every morning!! WHoo-hoo

Answer 13

Stick it inside a saucepan that makes it echo real loud

.

Answer 14

Get an alarm that vibrates or moves?

Maybe it's not annoying enough? You could get a really irritating one that sings a song or something.

Answer 15

maybe you need a new alarm clock..
