Is it normal i wake up at 6:57 three times in same morning?
This has happened to me about 3-4 times in my life, first time starting in my junior year of high school.
I wake up on my own, see that it's 6:57 a.m., and go back to sleep thinking I have some more time before I absolutely need to get up. I literally feel Iike I sleep for an extra hour, but when I look at the clock... it's still 6:57 a.m. .
I think it's strange but I figure I might as well go back to sleep again since it's still not 7 a.m. yet. Again. I feel like I've slept forever. I even have random dreams each time which means I must be sleeping (right?). Finally I think to myself "It's gotta be late. I don't even feel tired anymore. I feel fully rested"... it's still 6:57 a.m. for a third time in the same morning.
In fact, it's not until I decide to get out of bed and start getting dressed for the day that the clock seems to go back to the typical morning speed (omg, how is it already 7:20?!)
I've tried googling this phenomenon for the past few years, but I can only find websites that teach you how to wake up at the same time everyday. That is not what's happening here. I'll wake up at the same time, multiple times in one morning. It's as if time is frozen... and every time this happens, it's always at 6:57 a.m.
Could someone please tell me what's happening or at least let me know that I'm not alone with this strange occurrence?
