It doesn't actually jolt you awake. Everyone wakes up every 3-4 hours, but most people fall back asleep almost instantly. High cortisol means that you can't fall asleep after waking up.

I wake up at 3am. Sometimes I fall right back asleep if I'm taking care of myself. If I'm being stupid, I may be up for hours possibly with high blood pressure
