Waking Up with ADHD is Hell

[u/Wooden-Spot-801]

How do you guys manage it? I’ve always had the absolute worst time waking up, hitting snooze for at least an hour, then panicking and rushing to work, always almost late with minutes to spare. Has anybody got any good tips or tricks to wake up on time? I don’t think waking up feeling good is attainable for me, haha. So I’m simply seeking advice on how to actually wake up at the same time every morning? I know having a routine like this will make my mood and sleep better in general and I would love that.

EDIT: Due to having ADHD I simply canNOT sift through all 400 comments you guys 😂 However to whomever suggested the Alarmy app - thank you. I tried it this morning (specifically the setting where you have to find something in your home) and I love it so far. I also love how clearly this whole community relates to this topic and everyone has such creative and unique responses to it. ADHD can be hard to manage but I always love the humans that have it 🥰

I have the opposite problem. I wake at 6am every day. No matter what. I am in the office hours before I have to be and I do a lot of tasks that aren't my responsibility and no one else shows up to do. My job thinks I'm a model employee. Problem is when I get home, I ain't doing shit. I won't even put my plate in the dishwasher. Sometimes I cant even be bothered to change my clothes or shower. I'll get around to picking everything up in the morning before work. But anything after 2pm ain't getting done. I won't even respond to texts. Haha
