I keep oversleeping, and even my kind papa (a male supporter) has become fed up with me.
This content is machine-translated.
Even when I set five alarms, I always oversleep by about 15 minutes. I don’t remember going back to sleep, but there are signs that I turned the alarms off. I’m really struggling, and it’s causing me to mess up everything at work too. I know people might say they don’t know what to do either, but how do you all deal with this?

What time does the questioner usually go to bed?
Try different things and figure out how many hours of sleep your body needs. People need at least six to eight hours of sleep; otherwise, your mental and physical condition will deteriorate, and your brain won’t function properly. If you go to work like that, you’ll end up being unable to do your job and become incompetent.
Apparently, waking up during either REM or non-REM sleep can help you wake up feeling refreshed. (Please Google it yourself.)
If you really can’t wake up, I also recommend seeing a doctor. There’s also a condition called orthostatic dysregulation, which isn’t very well known.
Set your alarm for somewhere between an hour and 30 minutes before you need to get up.
After that, it comes down to responsibility and willpower. You could probably wake up if it were something like, “There’s a fire!”

Go to bed by 10 p.m.
Get into bed even if you’re not sleepy.
That might seem ineffective because you’ll wake up in the middle of the night, but even so, I feel it makes it easier to get up in the morning.
As for alarms, there’s no point keeping them nearby, so I think it’s better to place five of them around the same room, in spots that require you to get up to turn them off. You’ve probably already tried setting them at different times, but setting them all for the same time defeats the purpose, so I’d stagger them by about three minutes each.
Also, even though many people have a snooze function, I think a lot of them don’t use it. If you use it, the alarm will go off again five minutes after you stop it, so it seems better to keep snoozing until you’re fully awake and dressed. Still, more people seem to turn it off completely from the start.
The harder it is for you to get up, the more you should probably use it.

I’m Meg, one of the female members.
I completely understand how you feel. I used to be terrible at getting up in the morning when I was younger, too.
Have you ever Googled “recommended vibrating alarm clocks”?
There are all kinds of options♪
Once you manage to get up on time even just once, give yourself lots of praise: “Good job, me!!!”

I’m in Seattle.
Maybe it’s because you don’t go to bed early. If you’re going to sleep at around 2 a.m., of course you’ll oversleep.
Buy an alarm clock that runs away on wheels.
Once you get older, you’ll start waking up at 4 a.m. all by yourself.

Don’t look at your phone.
It’s best to deal with it as soon as possible.
