OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNEA SYMPTOMS:
Loud snoring. This can indicate breathing problems or blocked air passages.
Cessation of breathing or choking spells in the night. In severe cases, this can occur over fifty times an hour with each hundreds of times a night with each one lasting as long as ten seconds.
Excessive daytime sleepiness. Sleep apnea causes sleep deprivation. Daytime sleepiness can become so excessive that working becomes impossible and driving is dangerous.
Frequent visits to the bathroom during the night.
Severe mood swings from depression to irritability to anger.
Obesity In many cases. Although some slim people do suffer from sleep apnea the majority are overweight or obese.
Low sex drive and a general lack of energy.
Dry mouth and sore throat in the morning from sleeping with the mouth open, snoring and gasping for air.
Lack of concentration and forgetfulness from sleep deprivation.
Morning headaches
For those that know, I have a sleeping problem(snoring to be exact). Well the last several months its been increasingly worse, and more of a problem. I have a good job, I have love in my life, and goals. I still have the basic worries, but who doesnt. But my interests have dwindled, my goals are in the backseat, no interest for anything. I have to force myself to go out, or i wouldnt. Im tired all the time, i'm falling asleep while driving more frequently. Nothing is there! I'm frustrated everynight, lying awake then falling asleep a couple hours before i have to go to work. Or sleeping till 1 before i have to go into work on a late day. I havent drawn anything since last year. I try to go and draw and all i get is crap! What im going through is more than lack of motivation. Something is wrong, but what?
I'm looking into things to see what things can help. First off breathe right strips dont work! Looking into the thyroid and hormones to see if there out of whack. There is something wrong with my system, and i dont have health insurance to have it medically checked out, so for now it'll have to be done naturally.

Maybe try to eat healthier... your diet could be part of it.
go to bed earlier... read a book before you go to lay down and that might help. you aren't supposed to read IN bed ... not sure why but that's what i've read online (although I am guilty of reading in bed).
drink less beer...... :)
Seriously. You should go to bed earlier.
Not that I should talk. I don't sleep much (on the weekdays...)
I'm sorry, but some of the symptons you have listed are just hilarious.
haha. i agree with sean. especially frequent visits to the bathroom during the night.
i think being healthy has a huge part in snoring. it really is your entire lifestyle. try that first, along with getting more sleep, before getting any type of operation. or stop going to the bathroom so much in the middle of the night;)
