I thought buying an alarm clock was pointless in 2025. Phone already screams every morning, right? Wrong. Using a separate alarm actually reduced my doom-scrolling by a lot. You don’t touch your phone first thing, which sounds small but changes mornings. On Twitter, people keep talking about “analog habits,” and this fits right in. Lesser-known stat I read somewhere: people who avoid phones for first 30 minutes feel less anxious. Financially, it’s like paying for peace instead of notifications. Sometimes I forget to set it and oversleep—so yeah, not perfect. But when it works, mornings feel less chaotic. https://deodap.in/collections/clock
