Hi Kara,
> NO, I definitely don't think that 5 alarm clocks is crazy. I have used three until recently when one of them broke. I had them strategically placed as well. For one of them I have to get up out of bed. I tried putting one in the living room but I didn't hear it. Maybe I should get a couple more of them and place them on the other side of the room. It's worth a shot anyway.
I read somewhere, maybe in a book by Dr Amen that he had several clients who had commercial burglar alarms installed because nothing else would work! When I was a kid my dad would have to shake me awake in the morning.
> I had a friend come to visit last year. She said that my alarm clocks would go off and I would be sleeping through it. They were plenty loud too. I guess that explains why my alarm clocks were running so late. :-) Now I have one of them set for the radio to come on very loudly. I don't think I have ever slept through that though. I hate them too.It can be next to my bed full blast and it might take an hour to wake me up. I have to put it across the room and play rap music or something else I can't stand. Lately I just wake up enough to pop an adderall and I get up easily when that starts to kick in.
