Sleep apnea is such a pain in the ass. A lot of times when dreaming at night I know I am dreaming. During the dreams I'll be doing something and then all of a sudden start feeling like I can't breath. So I'll say great here we go an apnea again and try to breath from the mouth and take fake deep slow breaths in the dream. Every now and then it actually works. Normally though it gets real uncomfortable so I shake my head back n forth really hard which causes me to wake up, sure as shit right when I wake up I have to get me in several real good breaths and can tell I hadn't been breathing. Really bizarre.
