How to Know if You Have Sleep Disorders

from wikiHow - The How to Manual That You Can Edit

Sleeping can be a real mission, but for some people it's a bit more serious. This article outlines common symptoms of sleep disorders.

Steps

1. Look for a combination of these symptoms:
   
2. Irritable and grumpy. You feel angry at everything and are less appreciative of things. Everything is gloomy and dark in your world.
   
3. Blurry vision. You may not know this, but people that get enough sleep every night have a better vision than those who don't. If your eyes lack at least 2 hours of sufficient sleep every night, your vision will suffer.
   
4. Hyperactive behaviour. Your brain will try to stay as alert as possible, but will not realise the hyperness you're displaying.
   
5. Inadequate thinking. You won't be able to work as hard in school or at work and will lose concentration easily.
   
6. Bags under your eyes. You may have swollen eyes or bags. Make up may cover it up, but please note that swollen eyes can get infected and need looking at.
   
7. Depression can be caused by lack of sleep and will most likely lead to unwanted habits and actions.
   
8. Repeated actions. You pace up and down, stare into space, wash your hands all the time. This is your brain sturggling to keep you awake. It can lead to serious long term disorders.
   
9. Consult with a doctor.

Tips

• There is hope for you though! Seeking a doctor's help through prescribed medicines will help you get your heavenly sleep.
  
• If you sleep with a sibling or roommate, and they REALLY don't care if you can't sleep, tell someone who can help you.
  
• Never let sleep deprivation or disorders get you down. You may feel agitated by it, but remember that there's someone who is in the same position as you.
  
• 12-19 year olds are most vulnerable to sleep disorders. If you aren't being taken seriously, take action yourself.
  
• Don't think about it too much. Just think that you have an entire day to enjoy and have fun, so just relax and ease up sometimes!

Find a Product to Stop Snoring - wikiHow

How to Find a Product to Stop Snoring

from wikiHow - The How to Manual That You Can Edit

If you are suffering from snoring it is crucial you find the right stop snoring products to eliminate your problem.

Surprisingly, many people are oblivious to the fact that snoring can cause serious mental and physical repercussions such as major depression and even heart attacks.

After a long period stretching no less than 10 difficult years in which I have tried many stop snoring products I have finally found the perfect stop snoring product that worked for me.

These are some of the stop snoring solutions I have tried over the years:

Steps

1. Stop snoring mouthpiece
   
2. After ordering one online, I had to boil it in water and afterwards dunk it in cold water. The next step is to suck on this mouthpiece in order to extract any leftover fluids after which you need to bite down on it so it molds according to the shape of your teeth. It sound more complicated than it really is considering this whole process takes about 2 minutes. I must admit I wouldn't recommend this product due to the fact it's quite uncomfortable and it kept falling out of my mouth. http://www.ustopsnoring.com/Mouthpiece.asp
   
3. Stop snoring pillows
   
4. These stop snoring products turned out to be ineffective. Although originally designed to make you sleep on your side thus helping in reducing the pressure on your airways, I have learned that there is no way this pillow prevents you from sleeping on your back and the only thing that it is doing effectively is to cause you waking up with a substantial neck pain.

6. Stop snoring nasal strips
   
7. These turned out to be the most ineffective of all. The stop snoring nasal strips are those sticky nose strips that you attach to your nose in hope of opening your congested airway. Maybe my snoring is caused by a condition other than a congested nose. Anyway, I got zero results.
   
8. Stop snoring spray
   
9. This was it. From all the stop snoring products, the spray worked the best. My wife has told me that she didn't wake up once and that I was quiet all night long. I was really surprised that after just a few sprays it actually worked. The only thing I regret is the fact it took me about 10 years until I discovered that a simple, inexpensive nasal spray was the answer to my dreams.
   

Warnings

• If you also are suffering from the same snoring problem, you should give the spray a shot. There is no good reason not to
