11 Things Every Girl Who Hates Waking Up in the Mornings Understands

​1. You cringe every time your alarm goes off. ​Morning already?!

​2. Like, an actual physical cringe. ​Your face freezes up. Your shoulders creep toward your ears. Your eyes pinch shut. It's bad. (It also disrupts your highly comfortable sleeping position, but that's another story.)

3. Your first thought upon waking up every morning is, Noooooooo. ​Followed by, Ugh, whatever, I'm hitting snooze.

4. You genuinely believe this is the very worst moment of your life. ​Every. Single. Morning. Like, logically, you know you've survived worse, but in the wee hours of the morning, that's mighty tough to to remember.

5. ​It doesn't matter what time you go to bed. ​If you go to bed earlier than you usually do, you can't fall asleep for, like, ~forever~. If you go to bed late, you stay up even later stressing about how little sleep you're going to get. Either way, you still wake up exhausted

​6. You cycle through the five stages of grief every morning. ​Denial: I must be dreaming. I don't have to get up yet, right? Right?! 

Anger: *Fumes.* 

Bargaining: K, if I skip showering and eat breakfast in the car, I can sleep for an extra 25 minutes...

Depression: Will I spend the rest of my life waking up earlier than I want to? Yes. :(

Acceptance:​ Fine. I'll get out of bed, but I refuse to be happy about it. 

7. Your alarm clock looks like this. ​​And it seriously stresses you out.​

8. You've gotten your morning routine down to a science. ​The faster you can zip through brushing your teeth and getting dressed, the longer you can stay snuggled up in bed. 

9. You know the first 10 seconds after getting out of bed are the worst. ​Especially in the winter. The shock of cold air! The feeling of standing on your own two feet! Crying.

​10. Getting up early on the weekends is actual torture. ​It's just not faaaaair. Saturday and Sunday are your days to sleep in! You need to relax, and catching Zs without being interrupted by your alarm going off is pure bliss. 

​11. No matter how late you sleep in, it's never enough. ​You ever morning: "Just five more minutes. Really. Five more minutes. OK, another five more minutes. Ten more minutes?"
