Why do I keep waking up too early in the morning?

Your body could be used to waking up at that time possibly. Try to set a sleeping schedule up.

I wake up too early when I'm nervous about something. I tend to naturally sleep less when I'm anxious & more when I'm depressed

Stress and depression have this common symptom. Before going to bed, make sure you are relaxed and relieved, drink a tea, have a hot bath, it will help.

You might be feeling restless when you fall asleep, which can cause you to get less rest. While sleep aids like ZZZQuil can help you get a good night's sleep, you should also be wary of becoming dependent on these medications, especially if you have issues with addiction. This may not work for everyone, but try to avoid eating anything sugary or with lots of caffeine at least 2 hours before bed, and turn off electronics at least 1 hour before. Make sure your room is dark and quiet, but if silence bothers you, some soft music or audiobooks playing is okay. I personally like to listen to the podcast Welcome to Night Vale to put me to sleep when I'm having trouble.

Assuming you are an early riser, try going to bed later at night. It might be you are getting too much sleep and your body forces you to rise. Or it could be simple, for example you have the sunrise shining on your face in the morning.

I wake up early in the morning because it makes me feel a lot better about myself and I can get a lot more things accomplished.

It's I because I haven't build enough sleep drive or I have too many things racing through my mind that need to be resolved.

It is your body's biological clock. It has for some reason set itself to wake you up early, which isn't always a bad thing! But you if you feel that you're getting less sleep, you can always try and go to bed early. Early to bed, early to rise!

Honestly, I wake up for my sweet feline Bella, she is the positive energy in my life for now. Responsibilities are important.

1. Preserve the darkness. Keep the room dark when you wake up. Keep a small book light or mini flashlight next to your bed and use it to navigate your way to the bathroom, or put a dim night-light in the bathroom and leave the door cracked, so you can find your way there. Whatever you do, don't turn on the overhead light in the bathroom once you're inside. 2. Move the clock out of reach. Constantly checking the clock and calculating how long you've been awake only feeds your anxiety: "Oh no, now I'm only going to get five hours of sleep." Set the alarm, then move the clock where you can't see or check it. 3. Write it down, then let it go. On your bedside table, keep a notebook and pen devoted solely to nighttime "worry lists." Using a dim night-light, write down each thought that's bothering you. Then, after you write it down, make a conscious effort to cross it off the list in your mind. In the morning, transfer the action items to your to-do list. Over time, you'll develop faith in yourself that writing down your worries equates with getting them done.
