Re: Morning Routines

I wake around 5.30 - 6.30 am, and stay in bed until 7, so as not to have wake-up-time creep.

The worst part of the morning is the few moments as I surface. Absolute black despair. This even happens during the day after naps. I asked my counsellor about it and she said it was due to cortisol, the stress hormone, which is what wakes you up in the first place. I just get too big a dose of that stress hormone. I grit my teeth through it, tell myself "it's just the cortisol" and try and do something to take my mind off it.

Thanks for mentioning this! It basically confirms something I've long suspected about how I feel waking up. Absolute black despair covers it really well. For me it lasts for about an hour, with the first 30 minutes being the most intense. I actually feel like it's a significant part of why I'm on disability; it's just a hellish thing to go through at the start of every day.
