Snoring is No Laughing MatterAs innocent children armed with our trusty toolbox of crayons and markers, we often depicted a snoring person as someone lying in bed with a series of? s?casually emerging from a peacefully sleeping body. However, what we neglected to draw and again, rather innocently was the severe

underlying damage that was occurring in that ordinary picture. The Damage is Far-ReachingDamage to whom? Well, damage to at least one person, and potentially many

more. Primarily, snoring has the very real potential of causing health damage to the

snorer him or herself.

This damage can range from relatively mild sleep disturbances, to outright fatal

Sleep Apnea (described further in this book). Indeed, when looked at under this

light, those innocent Zs in our childhood drawings don't seem quite so harmless,

anymore.

Yet is that where the suffering ends -- with the snorer? Hardly; and this is where

the dilemma of snoring and it is indeed a dilemma takes on an added hue of

suffering and misery.

To understand this in its painful clarity, lets return quickly to that childhood drawing

of the sleeping person (usually a man) slumbering away after a hard day of work,

possibly dreaming about something pleasant, as Zs floated up from his peaceful,

sleeping body.

Now, how many of us took the time to draw the person trying to sleep next to that

snoring partner? Hardly any of us, I would venture to presume, took the time to

accurately depict the total anguish that the non-snoring partner of a snorer

undergoes on a nightly basis.

But really, that's where a great deal of snoring-related suffering is contained: in the

life of someone trying to live (and love!) a snorer. Snoring must be Solved!Of course, non snorers who have valiantly slept in the same bed, or even in the

same house, as a chronic snorer know precisely how severe this problem is, and

they don't require any convincing that snoring is a problem that requires a

solution!

Yet there are some, perhaps, who haven't yet experienced the true violence of

living with a snorer; and for those people, I humbly invite you to try sleeping with

any of the following devices; all of which have been ranked as emitting the same

or fewer decibels than the average snorer:* An operational lawn mower (and not the super-quiet luxury kind, either)* An industrial vacuum cleaner (the kind that picks up nails and glass!)* A running motorcycle (these things have no muffler, really, and you can hear

them from blocks away!)* A passing jet (the kind that wakes up babies, scares cats, and sets off car alarms)* An operational chain saw (hopefully you haven't actually slept while one of these

things are operating?nless you were a horror movie actor)* A blender, food processor, or hair dryer (not one; all three at once!)The Noise is Often NOT Temporary!And remember, please: we aren't talking simply hearing these sounds and then

having them fade, such as what were used to when we hear a passing jet (i. e. we

only have to hear it for a minute or so, and then its gone).

Imagine, if you can, listening to these sounds all night long; and then youll have a

very real and non-exaggerated sense of what a non-snorer withstands, or tries to

withstand, on a nightly basis when attempting to co-exist with a full-time snorer.

So in a nutshell: if your exposure to the world of snoring is simply and innocently

depicting some happy Zs floating up from a peacefully sleeping person, possibly

beside another peacefully sleeping non-snoring person, then its time to update the

records: its not a laughing, innocent matter at all. For both the snorer and the

non-snorer(s), snoring is an extremely serious matter. V. Anantha Krishnan is a webmaster of Top Ranked eBooks. You will find great ebooks on various topics here.
