What is sleep apnia?

My roommate has this habit of snoring super loudly and then suddenly going dead silent, which used to freak me out. Turns out it is called sleep apnea, where you actually stop breathing for a few seconds. He is planning to get it checked during the semester break.

This is a breathing problem during sleep that can make you feel very weak during the day. While losing weight and doing regular pranayama can help open up your airways, you must consult a doctor if you are choking or gasping at night.

It is a very scary condition because you wake up feeling like you are suffocating, which leaves you anxious all day. I used to cry because of how exhausted and weak I felt every morning. Please seek medical help, as treatment can truly bring your life back.

This is a disease where a person stops breathing for a short time while sleeping. It causes a lot of snoring and makes the body very tired. Please do not ignore this and go to a big hospital to show a chest doctor.

I agree, sleep apnea is quite serious and often goes undiagnosed. If you frequently wake up with a dry throat or a headache, getting a professional sleep study is highly recommended.

It is basically a sleep breathing disorder where your airway gets blocked temporarily. I noticed my father's blood oxygen levels dropping to 85% on my smart ring tracker at night. If your fitness tracker shows high breathing disturbances, it is time to see a doctor.
