    I did hear about some odd sleeping pill, not sure if it existed or if it was just a concept someone thought about…

    The pill was a normal sleeping pill, but with a core of cafffine, it would be designed so that it would take X hours to dissolve and once it got to the core, the caffine would wake you up on time.

    The more I think about it, the less I believe it would ever work.

      I like the idea to counteract the grogginess of the sleeping tablet, but I lack the knowledge to know if that would work.

      I’m guessing it would have been digested by then, right?

        Yeah, the point of it was that it would only keep you sleeping for X time and then wake you up.

      I do this the manual way. Set alarm half-an-hour early for coffee, drink it and go back to sleep. Wake up moderately more awake 45 minutes later. Doesnt always work. 4/10
