I think it’s best to get out of that cycle and force your body to wake up at the first alarm. Otherwise you’re just wasting time on nothing - your brain doesn’t rest properly in those 5-minute doses and you’re not getting ready either. The way I’m doing it is to put my phone in a different room next to my bedroom so that I have to get out of bed to turn off the alarm. If you’re managing to sleep through alarms it’s probably not the solution for you, so maybe the QRAlarm recommendation made elsewhere in the thread is better.
It doesn’t matter what anyone does. I don’t actively remember snoozing it or sleeping through it. That shit is on autopilot. I have snoozed an alarm and sent a text to someone without waking up.
The 5 alarms is necessary. I have 3 on my phone and 2 on my Google home because I have slept through 2-3 alarms before. If I am asleep asleep you can pour water on me and I won’t wake up. Shattering glass. Vacuum. Blender. Lights. You name it.
My mom used to have to take my blankets and pillow away. Turn on my lights. Poor water on me and smack me around to get me outta bed at times.
I blame my father. When I was little I would fall asleep and take naps right next to his floor tom while he was practicing with his band. Full volume band practice and I would just pass out into my box of Legos right there next to him.
