Also, the alarm clocks should have actual bells, not electronic beepers. It's harder to learn to tune out the discordance of a physical bell. And set them far enough from the bed that you actually have to get off the bed to turn them off.
Mind you, this becomes trickier if you have a roommate who doesn't have to get up early and sabotages your plan.
I heard lithium really fucks with you; is it true? Does it completely mess with your ability to think? 'Cause shit, I'm having enough trouble thinking straight as it is. I can barely think most of the time. And that's with Zoloft and Adderall and Depakote. And fuck-a-duck, I'm pretty sure right now only the Adderall's working. Because I'm nonstop and it's linear and literal and lateral and I barely make sense out loud. And shit.
Woad do I do? I am so blue! Anybody want a peanut? Reference referral, recursive. I hate my brain. I hate so much.
Lithium throws some people for a loop, but the advantage of it is that it works for 75% of the people it is percribed for, compared to other brain drugs at 30%.
It shows effect quickly, offering small amounts of relief from the first day and full effects within two weeks.
Side effects are less than most other brain meds and it is easy to monitor by taking lithium levels, but it can take a while to find the right dose for a person, like all of the brain meds.
It cured my hard sleeping and my trouble waking. It got rid of me getting up and shuting off the alarms and not remembering it. When I woke I felt rested and not stupid or groggy. I stopped talking to and compalining at the people trying to wake me too.

And you need a wind down routine before bed that you do every night to train your body to get you to sleep the same time each night.
