I set my alarm an hour before I actually get up and hit snooze every 10 minutes. After the first snooze alarm goes off, I start checking Facebook, this site, Instagram, etc. until I absolutely have to get out of bed. I'm usually awake by the time I get out of the shower.

I've pared my morning routine down to 40 minutes so I can get every last second of time in bed as possible.

I'm usually ready to go when I wake up. I may, if I'm lucky, get 6 hours of sleep a night. I don't use an alarm and wake up every morning at 6:30 no matter what time I go to bed. I have been known to take naps though

I am like you. Give me and I come to life but not all the way til 10am..lol!

Wake up and go within 30 minutes.

I'm mentally awake soon as my eyes open. Then I refuse to get up till i absolutely have to. That usually takes about an hour.

me too...incommunicado for 1-2 hours after "waking"...2-3 cups...

While I had my caffeine addiction I was a total zombie. After I kicked it I was able to get right out of bed and get going. I even go to the gym in the morning and I'm super awake after that.

Once the coffee kicks in I am alright. However, there are days when no amount of coffee can motivateme.

Soooo.... I am not odd in not being very functional if awakened early. MOST answered similarly here. Why does society force us out of bed so damned early, then? We no longer depend on natural daylight to see!

My daughter and I wake up slowly. As a baby, in the morning, Claire nestled on my lap facing me, with her warm blankie against me. Drowsily rocking, I dropped sleepy kisses on her warm, little head.

Sweet melting closeness.

I've always been a slow riser. I wasn't grumpy, I just didn't ... talk. My husband would bound out of bed, singing and making jokes, chattering on about anything, so he was the obvious choice to take care of our daughter when she woke up. When he died, I felt I had to fill that void for her and I did ... but now that she's an adult, I've been slipping back into my natural rhythm. But I'm good with that.

I’m zombielike for about 20 minutes.

I am no longer a caffeine junkie so I'm ready to go.

Definitely not a morning person. When I had a regular 9-5 job it was so difficult getting up in the morning. I will make the effort and prepare the night before if I do have to get up early, but otherwise it's just not in my nature. I tend to be a "night owl" more than a "lark."

I have the highest energy in the morning...I tend to fall asleep hard and fast...I do like my morning coffee, but usually after I workout, so I can drink it relaxed and preparing my mental of list of things to get done...I am awake most days around 5:30 am or so...except weekends...

I'm naturally energetic. Once I wake up, I start getting ready to roll. I don't nap much, never drink coffee or energy drinks and I rarely even hit my snooze button. Alarm goes off, regardless of how much sleep I had, and I'm bounding out of bed.

The early worm gets earen by the bird. I am a nocturnal creature.

I can jump and roll and I can crawl out and move slow. It depends on what's happening that day.

When I sleep until I wake up, morning is fine. It’s just that damn alarm clock, ruins the day before the day even begins.

I’m zombielike for about 20 minutes.

I’m zombielike for about 20 minutes.

I’m usually awake before the alarm. Not a coffee drinker. Ready to go!
