I swear i'm going to kill him and plead temporary insanity I think I may just get away with it.

It's 4am and i'm awake because he is snoring the place down leaving me wondering if I could get away with it because I feel it coming on.

Honestly we watched the latest Walking Dead tonight and as much as I love zombie shows (I really do I seek them out) they give me nightmares and because I believe that it will one day happen and I sometimes plan my exit strategy if it came to it his snoring is making me feel as if he is attracting the walkers to come and eat us. I kid you not I seriously awoke from a nightmare about this to his snoring and freaked out a little and now can't sleep and he's still snoring!

Now about that insanity plea. . . . :smokin:

    So, all this time I thought sleep apnea killed a person in a different way. I didn't think your bed partner did the killing!

    My husband snores like crazy, but I can sleep through a nuclear explosion, so as long as he's not snoring while I'm trying to fall asleep, it's no big deal.

    Ooh I got a witness already i'm that much closer to sweet victory. (said as pillow held above his head) :laugh:
    I give anything for ear plugs right now i'm just lying here kicking him contemplating going to work early so I can get an Asda shop in.

    Help :sad:
  • I finally got my husband to do a sleep study, and his sleep apnea was much worse that he thought. I think he thought I was just being *****y...but the man snored sooooo loudly when he inhaled AND exhaled. There were nights I would have gladly killed him...but I kinda like having him around when he is awake. When he had the study done, the sleep tech said he was the loudest man he had ever heard...and nicknamed him the "Seattle Special" - told him he was louder than a freight train. Finally, he accepted the fact that he snored and started using a C-PAP. The first two weeks, he was exhausted...I think it is because he finally got good, healthy sleep and his body had to adjust. He also dropped 30 lbs without trying in about three months. He became a new man during the day...could stay awake, whereas before he would.d fall asleep as soon as he sat down, and also behind the wheel...scary stuff. The C-PAP has improved his health, and it probably saved our marriage - lol!

    I got diagnosed too...I wasn't a big snorer, except when I had been drinking alcohol, however, turns out this stuff is real and it really helped being on the CPAP machine. I realized the constant interruption of my sleep prevented me not only from going into deep sleep, but also from dreaming. The first weeks I was on the machine, I was dreaming every single night. If you have a snoring problem, I would definitely get it checked out. Sleep apnea is dangerous and if the not breathing doesn't kill you, it causes all types of other problems with your heart and immunity systems. I'm definitely glad I got checked out

    Still awake, watched a few youtube videos to pass the time and will now try to get at least an hour in (tho unlikely)
    Good luck to my fellow sufferers ;)

    Bad idea writing about it beforehand then....insanity plea will probably go out the window.

    If you think about it in a positive light - He could serve as an awesome zombie distraction whilst you escape! Nothing says 'live meat' like a good snore.

    My boyfriend is loud too. I always wake up at 2:00, shortly after he falls asleep, and move into the spare bedroom until I get up at 7:00. It's very rare I spend an entire night in our bed. I hate not sleeping with him, but it's better than being tired/cranky all day.

    My hubby snores too. I'm a very light sleeper. I can hear everything. Hubs says I have bat ears. Any how, he tried that mouth peice thing that supposed to help you stop snoring. It has helped with the snoring but now he breaths heavy. Sounds like I'm sleeping with Dark Vader. I have too plotted his death by pillow suffication many many times :devil:

    LOL! My hubby also snores but will NOT wear a mouth piece or do a sleep study. He says it's my problem if I can't sleep. Gee, thanks a lot. I've also plotted my hubby's death!

    I have ear plugs and have been going to bed before my husband, then 2 or 3 hours later he comes in and i wake up because the bed moves all around and I'm a sensitive sleeper. so before I know it he rolls over and snores right in my ear. I often wake up and go to the couch to sleep because I haven't had a good nights sleep since about a year before we got married, its awful. He goes between snoring and deep breathing and it drives me insane.

    ^^ I'm not entirely sure if mine snores or not since he usually falls asleep after I do and wakes up before I do. Oddly enough, when my kids were small, if they cried, I'd wake up. Nothing else really does that, though.

    Hahaha trust me when the zombie apocalypse goes down he will definitely be zombie fodder.
    He already knows it that's why he sleeps closest to the bedroom door and I the window for a quick getaway. :laugh:
