Snoring & Relationships There are more than 15 million people in the UK who snore, so this means that the number of partners being kept awake during the night, is also well into the millions. The problem is, there is often a large impact on a relationship from someone who is snoring and some marriages and relationships are often in jeopardy as a partner is forced to sleep in another room. It is important that a snorer identifies what type of snorer they are before attempting to find a cure to alleviate their problem. The noise that a snorer makes is due to the structure in the mouth, throat or nose vibrating. Therefore by finding which part of the structure is vibrating, treatment options can be identified and given more successfully.
Many people regard snoring as a joke but it has been known to destroy the strongest of marriages. This is usually caused by the partner's sleep deprivation as when tired and irritable, rational decisions are not usually made, allowing them not to function properly. Some people who are deprived of their sleep may even feel physically ill. Problems such as these do not help a relationship blossom. As mentioned above, snoring can create serious problems between couples. The partner often tries to stop the snoring or find themselves lying there for hours listening to the sounds and wishing that they too were asleep. Not to mention the snorer and their problems. They are usually getting kicked in the ribs or banished to another room, these all create disturbances to their sleep making them tired and irritable and changing the dynamics or bedtime. This often results in the bedtime intimacy and chatting being ruined and nobody wanting to sleep with the snorer. This then makes the snorer feel isolated resulting in an unhappy relationship. It's easy to see why the ramifications of snoring are considered quite serious.
The most common triggers for snoring are being overweight, drinking and smoking. It is mainly those who are 50 to 59 years of age who snore the worst. So what can be done about the problems of snoring? Visiting the doctor (the snorer that is) should essentially be the first step as snoring is not only a nuisance; it can be a dangerous condition, especially if it is accompanied by sleep apnoea, a condition where the body is deprived of oxygen. It could be pointed out that it is a dangerous condition if they are at risk of being kicked and pummelled by their sleeping partner! Those who sleep alone find it very difficult to ascertain whether or not they snore and if so, the level they snore at. Some are aware that they snore as they wake themselves up due to the noise. Some are even awakened by their neighbours who bang on their walls due to their snoring. A good indicator for those people who suspect they snore but sleep alone is waking in the morning and not feeling rested following an average number of hours of sleep. It is therefore advisable that you see a doctor for advice and possible treatment.
