I'm not sleeping well now and I've had nightmares about drowning here and there since about 14 yrs old. I remember waking up in the morning when I was a teen, trying to get up earlier than the other kids just so they wouldn't try to shame me about waking up later than them.
90% of those who have obstructive-sleep-apnea are undiagnosed.
65% to 80% of stroke patients also have Sleep-apnea.
I couldn't admit to myself until recently, that I've had sleep apnea since I was a kid, periodically because of changes in growth versus the orthodontic treatment and teeth straightening procedures. I remember seeing a poster in a hallway before a school concert one night regarding the prevalence of sleep-apnea, but my mind rejected the possibility that I could be in that category. But my body knew there was something related to that.
I've always wondered if my teeth would have been better off without so much straightening from human hands and minds, if they were allowed to grow naturally, if the doctors were in fact somewhat in the dark about the ideal way to handle my bite. I think partly yes, but partly it's just the way my body has grown.
When I told the dentist to remove one of my top-teeth-retainers circa 2018, I think it affected my maxilla and nasal posture, resulting in decreased nitric oxide and collapsed nasal passages; this is why seasonal allergies and allergies to cats, dust, pollen have been such a problem in my life.
in order to be able to even see this problem correctly, I had to process the fear in my body of even considering what was the root of the problem. And this took meditation and doing Inelia's fear processing meditation.
Fortunately, there are some options for those who don't want surgical procedure. Mewing is one.
I used to play french horn. That may have been the best help against an unstable bite and sleep-apnea.
Myofunctional Therapy
"A 2021 review
of studiesTrusted Source found strong evidence that myofunctional
therapy has a positive effect on reducing sleep apnea. The researchers
classified the level of evidence as “1a,” according to the Oxford Center
for Evidence-Based Medicine 2011 guidelines. 1a means that it has the
highest level of evidence.""
