I woke up at 5:40 am and couldn’t get back to sleep, which is extremely unusual for me. And then I discovered that I had forgotten to set my alarm clock and my subconscious was keeping me awake so that I wouldn’t miss my doctor’s appointment at 9 am.

Heh, in highschool I used to wake up 30 seconds before my alarm would ring.

Check out this story about teenage boys who are raped by peers as part of hazing rituals. And then get turned on mercilessly when they speak out against their attackers:

My subconscious does this, too.
I usually need a huge amount of sleep (10-12 hours), but on a day when I have to do something at a certain time I will often wake up sometime before I’ve set my alarm to go off, even if I haven’t gotten 10 hours of sleep.

I just found out that antihistamines are why I sometimes get a poor night’s sleep. They must have added some anti-drowsy element to counteract the soporific effects.
