Anyone struggling to wake up because of sedatives - get a SAD lamp if you can.
I'm super freaking groggy in the mornings without it, it feels like being a teenager again in waking up, falling back asleep again and again.
It wakes you up by slowly turning on a light that your body thinks is sunlight, which is meant to cheer you up. It also just wakes you slowly and gently, so it feels nicer
