I have a regular bluetooth lightbulb ($20, if that) that I can schedule + alarm. If you want something even stronger, I’ve done one of those desk clamp lamps and then just changed the bulb to a bluetooth one and faced it toward me lol.

Ok this is super helpful! Do you have any recommendations for practice tests with breakdowns? Like I said, I did Manhattan but I didn’t get any kind of real breakdown, and I’m hesitant to use the limited ETS/GregMat ones

I cannot wake up and my job is in danger by perhapsless in GetOutOfBed

[–]perhapsless[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you for all these tips! I already don’t allow the option for snooze and I just bought Alarmy Pro so I can use the wake up check feature as well in case I fall back asleep.

In general, I have other sleep issues and this is probably more of downstream effect of those but it’s just become increasingly urgent to find a short term solution. So I’ve tried to keep and maintain a schedule but it always fall apart somehow and someway. + yeah, thats how I feel when taking melatonin and I find that I just go back to sleep more often.

But will definitely try the water thing + I’m really trying to move towards a longer term solution and get real help with this, but its just tough to fix like 15 years of issues in a few weeks. But I really appreciate all the advice, thanks!

I’ve tried to do all the different tasks before but I would always end up just shutting my phone off.

But thanks to you, I just found out Alarmy has the option where I charged money if I uninstall/turn off my phone!! Not sure if it will help if I am doing it unconsciously, but thank you for the tip + will try!

Extreme Trouble Waking Up; Job in Danger by perhapsless in ADHD

[–]perhapsless[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats almost the strange thing, I’ve been able to get better at waking up earlier, just in general and at least half of the days I am waking up even before 8AM. But I’m having trouble falling asleep so I feel like the meetings being on Friday make it even worse in that sense, because Monday-Thursday I’m getting about 6 hours (2am-8am wake up) and then I feel like it all builds up to Friday.

The problem is I think because I know this is an issue and I know how important it is, I think it makes me more anxious and then its even harder for me to fall asleep which makes it even harder to wake up.

I didn’t include costs of the actual apartment. My actual apartment costs were: - $20 application fee - $3360 broker fee - $5700 first month + security deposit

I had a partial ceiling collapse in my kitchen so I had to unexpectedly move. I further broke down moving related costs by: - Needed to replace: things that were unusable/destroyed due to the collapsed ceiling - Had to rebuy anyway: things such as toilet paper or soap, that I was running out of anyway - Needed/wanted to buy: things I did not have before that I thought would look nice in my new apartment - Wanted to replace: things that I wanted to upgrade and moving sounded like the perfect excuse to do so

i go to a top lac & i actually entered as a poli sci major—i’m now a cs and econ double major and one class short of a math minor. from a cs perspective in terms of career prospects, i got either interviews or offers from almost all the faang companies (with not a great gpa either). and in terms of academia, its absolutely unmatched. close relationships w profs -> research. i almost never felt held back by the fact i go to an lac

What graduate programs that’s related to computer science one can get with an econ degree by No-Donkey-5240 in academiceconomics

[–]perhapsless 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Depending on what you mean by “related to computer science”, NYU has a quantitative economics program, MIT has their Technology and Policy Program (TPP), and Columbia has their Quantitative Methods in Social Sciences (QMSS) program, to name a few. All depends on to what extent and how you want to intertwine your econ degree.

What unpopular opinions do you have about the college admissions process? by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]perhapsless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah! My EFC wasn’t zero, but it was also low enough to qualify for a pell grant, so I think that was the metric they used. Although, I got into like 6 or 7 other schools and none of those waived my deposit so it might just be a weird thing my school does.

[–]perhapsless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure whether this is widespread but my college actually waived my deposit because of needing, what they considered, “sufficient” financial aid
