When you wake up early and can't go back to sleep, how long will you lay there before deciding to start the day?

Say you get up at 9 and your body gets you up at 6:30. You lay there for a few minutes trying to go back to sleep, how long will you give it before you give up on sleep and start your day?

Do you only give it a few minutes or do you try and go back to sleep until it's the normal time to get up for you?

We're freaking out that we're running out of time, but to do what? Should i stop and think of that? Is there something i could do to slow it down? Live in a day for once, instead of watch it sprinting by

Than I am waking up, I know that I ain't gonna fall asleep again and 2 hours are not worth it, I'd rather take a shower, play some video games, do some chores, watch anime instead of laying in a bed [excluding days when I am with huge hangover, in those days I am laying dead in bed for whole day]

The same happened today my alarm was set for 6:30 and I've woken up around 5:00.

30-45 min to try and fall back to sleep. If it doesn’t work then I’m up for the day.

I have a schedule, it's not relaxing..... it's not easy, even if I don't get to sleep I need to relax, i need the bed time. so I stay in bed until i have to get up.

Doesn't matter I wake up every 2 hours and I've nothing to do so my day never starts..

I can just stay in bed all day and still get paid..

But I hate stay in bed.. I would feel like suffocating just lying in bed all day..

Like 30 seconds to 2 minutes depending on how I feel, but that applies to any other day when I wake up.

In under 3 minutes, whats the point on trying to get back to sleep? The alarm will go off in 15 minutes or so.

This has started happening to me a lot. Today I went to the gym when it opened but that was 2 hours after I woke up. The other days I just laid in bed until my kids woke up.

it depends on what time I wake up, if it's before 7AM then I'll definitely do my best to go back to sleep, but if not, I'll just get up and have a shower.

I try my best to go back to sleep, but if I can't, I usually lay there for a couple of hours.

kinda depends on how i'm woken up and whether or not i'm anxious about something happening the following day?
sometimes i just go back to sleep anyway but other times i'm just like "screw it, i'll just get up". 
first thing i'll do is probably put the kettle on for some tea later and go wash up i guess and then i'll for sure be awake

Take an extra hour to try and fall back asleep. If I'm not asleep at that point, I don't want to risk oversleeping.

It depends on how unlikely it is I will fall asleep again. If I am fully awake, not long. A few minutes, maybe.

Side-note: I feel better when I have slept too little than when I have slept too much.

I will eventually fall back to sleep, it might just take a while and even if I wouldn't, I would still continue to lie around or just be on my phone or something until it would be the time I would have or want to stand up. If I have to go to the toilet, I just go there and then get back to bed

I don't usually have to get up early for anything unless it's something hobby-related at the weekend that I need to travel to, so I'll try go back to sleep. Although I have a cat who pesters me for food, so I can't stay in bed too long lol.
