Why do you get out of bed in the morning?

Is it cause you're sick of sleeping? (I hope not)
Because you need to get to work?
Because you want to do something you like?
Is it because you have to pee really bad?

The act of literally getting out of bed, for me, is usually because I need to pee. But if you mean that question less literally and more in the figurative sense, then I get out of bed because there are things that I enjoy doing throughout the day. There are things in the immediate future, near future, and long term future that I am looking forward to.
It really depends what you mean by "get out of bed in the morning." I started to think about motivation, enjoyment and suffering a few years ago when I was seriously considering suicide. I imagine ranking my quality of experience from day to day, on a scale where -10 is the worst possible day I could conceive of and 10 is the best possible day I could conceive of (0 is neutral). Based on the life I've lived so far and what I plan to do in the future, I predict what the average daily score will be for the rest of my life. If, at any point, the average daily score for the rest of a person's life is positive, then their life is worth living. If the average daily score for the rest of a person's life is negative, then it is in their best interest to end their life. My current predicted future based on average daily experience is a positive figure, and my life is therefore ultimately worth living.

I don't know why I do anything anymore. Not in a bad way. I lay in the grass in the backyard for hours just before.

I have to show the skank I picked up in a drunken stupor the night before, to the door.

Now stand on those little floorhands until those get sores, and lie back down on your back to relieve them. Repeat.
You seem glum, chum. Maybe the question should be not why one gets up but why one would wish they were getting up. What do you want to do between bedsores, CS?

I'm just cusious as to why people get up. What do they want to do? it's not laying in bed. They want to get up and do something, what is it that you all are trying to do when you wake up?

Almost 100% certain "not die" is the answer. The struggle for happiness would be runner-up imo.
