Contact me with question, suggestions and comments with the contact form listed on the website. See you there!Research has shown that snoring causes sleep deprivation to snorers. Even those around them, such as their bed partners, are affected by daytime drowsiness (which leads to chronic fatigue), irritability, lack of focus and decreased sex drive. It can cause significant psychological and social damage to both sufferers and their partners.
Multiple studies show that persistent snoring due to chronic airway obstruction can increase a person’s life time risk of stroke, high blood pressure, and heart problems including heart failure. This is because of thickening of the plaque in the arteries.
Obstructive sleep apnea in children can possibly increase the risk of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Their brain development also slows due to a decrease in oxygen supply. Therefore, no matter the age of your loved one, if you suspect such conditions related to their snoring, it is essential to discuss it and help them to seek treatment.
For snorers who choose to dismiss this affliction and live with it; they are in fact suffering from a severe impairment of lifestyle and can in fact drastically improve quality of life just by making minor changes.
Snoring can get in the way of a good night’s sleep and a healthy relationship with your spouse or partner. Many couples affected by snoring resort to sleeping in separate bedrooms in order to get a good night’s sleep. This arrangement may help both people sleep better, but it can disrupt communication and intimacy. Eventually, lack of bedtime chatting and physical intimacy can lead to a strained relationship. The person who snores often becomes isolated and frustrated about a problem they seemingly have no control over. It is very important to tackle your problem with the help of a loved one as it can provide motivation when the going gets tough.
