Another question for my flist

[innerslytherin]

Since you guys all had amazing ideas and encouragement for me on yesterday's query, here's another one for you all.

I don't wake up well. I'm a heavy sleeper once I do sleep, especially now that I have a prescription to help me get to sleep. And I'm not a morning person at all. So I was thinking about trying one of those sleep tracking wristbands at night, that set off an alarm when you're at your lightest, but those get mixed reviews on Amazon. Then I started thinking about a dawn simulating alarm clock. I don't really want to spend $300 on it, but around $100-150 would be okay. But I can't seem to find one that people agree on there, either.

Do any of you have any experience with dawn simulating alarm clocks? Any suggestions?

I have to second the electric blanket rec - since I started using one on a timer, I've found it MUCH easier to function in the morning.

Hmm...as I told Ming, I take medication that makes me wake up drenched in sweat on a regular basis (can't shower at night because of that either), and the medication is not optional. So I'm not sure the blanket is a good idea. :/ But I have dug out a timer and put a lamp on it, so thanks for the timer idea! :D
