Easy,if you are tired or sleepy during the day...DOUGH!

Purchase a voice activated tape recorder. You can get them at any electronics store. Set it on your nightstand when you go to bed. It will turn on when you start snoring and you can see how bad it really is.

going to a doctor & having a sleep study done like any normal person would do instead of wasting time asking strangers on the internet. or just set up a video camera to record you while you sleep.

Notice two things: are you tired even after a long night's sleep? And, if you fall asleep in a chair for example, do you ever wake up gasping for breath or breathing hard. I have sleep apnea and I use a CPAP machine. The first night I used it, I felt like a new man. My energy level increased, and my blood pressure was down. I feel great!

Even if ten people slept with you most cannot diagnosis sleep apnea. While being overweight, snoring and pause in breathing cycle can indicate they are far from full proof. There are sleep clinics that can help, ask your dodtor. +5
