Some people set multiple alarms because they are worried about not waking up when the first one goes off.
Despite how common hitting the snooze button is, many of us have been told it’s the wrong thing to do – and that catching a couple of extra minutes of sleep in the morning before waking up will only make you feel more tired. But a study my colleagues and I recently published indicates that this may not be true, showing that snoozing for a brief period in the morning may actually be beneficial for some people – in particular those who struggle with morning tiredness. We found that “snoozers” were on average six years younger (though there were snoozers of all ages) and got 13 minutes less sleep per night on workdays.
Hitting The Snooze Button Might Not Actually Make You More Tired
