i have phases in the day specially when working where my worst anxiety comes out during afternoon,not sure is it too much coffee nicotine or just combo of stress work all together.
Now i have been really bad for mornings for last decade or so, i had jobs where i would start as early as 4-6 in the mornings and regular 9-5 types,and normal days where you always wake up like your heart will bust < as in freaking fear anxiety that paralyzes all the body just because its time to get out of bed.
now examples you provided with clocks sounds even worse,since you break the chain and those micro sleeps in the morning time i believe only cause more damage.
using drugs-bnzos i found that more then likely ill spend another 3-5hours in bed once they kick in which is usually fast in the mornings when theres no job on the day.
your somewhat correct that body in the morning is at its most vulnerable its like red alert kicks in.
one technique that ive read is to basically jump out of bed minute your awake and do some simple exercises-to get blood flowing,easier said then done but few times it worked ok for me,but not really thing that many would like to do on daily basis.
second technique i use is wake up 2 hours earlier, most people leave at least hour before they get dressed coffee and out the door to hit traffic.Now extra hour doesnt eliminate that dreadfull fear once you wake up but it gives quite a good start where you can slowly put yourself together, as to put on slippers get coffee going ,brush wash, and slowly dress up for work leaving another 20-30mins to just melt there.Id doesnt help much with anxiety but in that spare time your almost in full mode awake and far away from going to bed.
also while havent noticed massive difference in what time one goes to sleep but then again anyone would want at least good 7-8 hours healthy sleep, since its easy to watch tv till midnight and if your up at 7 and cant fall asleep for another hour it works only in one feeling more tired anxious once awake.
one technique that ive never managed to try since it would need to be really timed well,is to use long lasting benzo like v@ls say 2-3 hours before waking up taking whatever dosage works for one, since in theory by the time you need to be up youll be sluggish etc.but benzo should be in full swing by that time to cancel out morning anxiety.
I know OP stated depression,thus wouldn't recommend any benzo routes to that, if its only depression and that medication isnt anywhere close that you would need it.
