To be honest, the only reason I ever notice DST is usually when I go grocery shopping on Sundays and I wonder why the clock in my car is off by an hour. Then after a few minutes my brain kicks in and goes "oh yea..." and changes it to what it should be. If it weren't for that, I would never know that it was happening.

I find it depends on what time I'm getting up. Some years, it's a minor change and I barely notice. Others, if I'm routinely getting up at a time that means I've been seeing the morning get lighter and lighter for the last couple weeks (especially during whatever commute I'm doing), that abrupt shift to being dark again absolutely wrecks me and it's like a month before I can get out of bed properly.

These days, working from home most of the time and getting up to start work at 9, it's not a huge problem because it's already been reasonably light at 9 for a couple months and will continue to be after the change.
