Tiredness And Fatigue

Dreamstime

Because of the constant disturbances sleep apnea causes in a patient's nightly sleep cycle, it is very common for sufferers of sleep apnea to experience abnormal levels of fatigue and sleepiness during the day. This excessive tiredness can lead to affected individuals dosing off at work or school, leading to possible issues with employment and academics, or more frighteningly while driving, in some of the more extreme cases.

Among the more damaging consequences of sleep apnea-induced tiredness, the constant fatigue can lower your enjoyment of life, as hobbies and other engagements that require energy start to sound unappealing, and individuals begin to only be able to muster the energy required to watch television on the couch.
