I'm not a morning person and hate getting up. But worse than that I hate people talking to me for at least 20 minutes after getting up. Grrr!

Who here has problems getting up in the morning?

Ive always had problems getting out of bed in the morning. Partly because i have a hard time getting to sleep at night.

But the other part Sounds really silly. At least to "neurotypicals" it does so no one understands it. Can you guys tell me if u can undersatand it and if it sounds silly to you? that way i know if its an aspie thing or just a "me" thing.

The problem is that the bed is just so comfy!! !! !! And the pillow and blanket are just so soft!! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! I want to get up but my body wants to continue to feel th softness on me. Does this make sence to you at all? or am i just weird? :?


YES!! ! The bed in the morning is a completely different sensory experience for me than it is at night. I've always wished I could reverse it! It is difficult for me to shut down, no matter how late it is. However, when morning comes (regardless of sleep but certainly more so when I'm lacking) that bed just feels like the most divine thing in the universe. Sometimes I look back at it longingly, all fluffy and comfy and delightful. I love the way it feels and it's almost as if I crave it. Eventually I move on with the day and forget about it, but yes, I totally understand. I've always had difficulty getting out of bed unless I was ready to do so.

My husband also has great difficulty getting out of bed on time.

I agree. The only words out of my mouth during that time are "Coffee?" or "Coffee!"

Takes me 30-60 mins to get out of bed and I get very easily agitated first thing, usually by noise. :x

<<<<<What I look like first thing in the morning.

omg YESSSSS. Some mornings it's like just SUPERNATURAL how amazingly soft and awesome my bed feels. XD;;;
But usually the reason I don't get up right away is because I just like to take my time. I DO get up though. D: but my mom never woke me up with enough time before school, so I was always like half dressed when I got on the bus. OTL;;;;;;;;;;;

That sounds normal to me. :)

I have trouble getting out of bed both for that reason (I feel quite horrible for the first few minutes during qhich I'm not wrapped up in blankets and pillows), and because the transition from in bed to out of bed is difficult. I have trouble going to bed also because of the transition. Transitions suck.

I've always had a hard time waking up, especially when I was going to public school. It didn't matter how much sleep I got. In fact, th earlier I would go to bed, the more tired I would be in the morning. My body could not adjust. Luckily I don't have to do that anymore

Bed in the morning = Heaven.

I can still get up, except that I'm apparently capable of turning off the alarm, shouting goodbye to family members leaving, and answering a phone call without ever waking up.
