I’ll Paint You a picture
00:00 The blanket gets pulled over my body, the light turns off
00:10 i am asleep
07:00: and ambulance passes by, a ray of sub hits my face directly, i have go to the bathroom whatever It Is, i wake up
07:05 situation solved. Given my alarm Is at 8, I try go back to sleep.
07:30: given i’m still awake, I decide to fully get out of bed, since 30mins isn’t worth It
This happens to me at least weekly. Why? Why Is going back to sleep once You’ve been women up so much harder than going to sleep the First time?

Get a cat. You will quickly train to go back asleep fast every time he wakes up in the middle of the night.
It sounds like your cortisol level is that of a morning person. Night owls can fall back asleep in the 5-8am range. I bet if you were to fall asleep at 10pm and something woke you up at 3am, you would fall immediately back to sleep. But your brain thinks 7am is awake Time and won’t be convinced differently.
Put on talk radio that’s only semi interesting. As an American I prefer the BBc for the accent for some reason. Put the volume so low that you have to struggle to understand every word. You may drift off to sleep.
when you’re awake you are building up sleep pressure from a chemical used in your neurons. when you sleep it is cleared away. since you have been sleeping for 7 hours before you were awakened most, if not all, of your sleep pressure is gone.
