To feel that murder is a reasonable response to snoring?

[HerGraciousMajTheBeardedPotato]

Dh wakes me with his pneumatic drill snoring. Because I'm awake, I need to go to the loo. As soon as I get out of bed he stops snoring. And when I get back into bed he starts snoring again!

AAAAAARGGGGGGGGH!

Please please get these snorers to the GP

They could well have sleep apnoea and need a CPAP

Untreated apnoea V dangerous if they drive or operate machinery

Sorry to be an eeyore

Mine is he has severe asthma and is chesty..... Normally I would go elsewhere but I literally cannot move :(

I feel your pain!!!

My DH snores and it drives me insane

So many times I'm shoving him to shut up!!

Then it starts again before too long

There doesn't appear to be any physical reason for it - he doesn't have a bad chest/blocked nose, not overweight, doesn't smoke, doesn't drink much alcohol and is generally very fit and healthy.

But still snores which keeps me awake

I'm sorry, I'm so so sorry. My name is eternal and I snore.

I woke myself up last night snoring. Obviously had been sleeping with my mouth open as I have a blocked nose. My mouth was so dry I had to get up for a drink.

apologies for keeping anyone awake!

When I was a young, naive legal exec doing a lot of family law and divorce work, and people would come to me to ask about grounds of divorce I would cite examples of what was unreasonable behaviour eg physical abuse etc. The example always given of what was not considered a ground for divorce for unreasonable behaviour was snoring.

Fast forward to now and DH snoring in all sorts of different and interesting ways, I defy anyone not to think this is a ground for at least divorce if not a defence to justify violent responses.

I also exercise the nose-holding, and knee in the back, often both at once. Aargh.

Already tested!

Haven't tried knee-in-the-back. Does it work??? Have been known to "mistakenly" kick.

Yes I'm also a snorer (hides shame under covers). I can sympathise with those who complain they haven't slept when you "know they have because of the snoring" - often I snore more when I'm sleeping lightly and thus wake up feeling unrested. I do feel terrible about keeping my DH awake, especially as currently both DC have colds and so does DH! I did try a snore spray thing onxe which was a bit dear but helped. Can't use it now though because bf.

How do you know you don't snore?

I am actually jealous of those of you who has a snorer in the same bed. Why? At least four nights a week I'm woken up by my upstairs neighbour snoring like a sodding bastard sodding noisy bastard. He is a truly horrible human being, for many reasons over the years here, I can't say anything but I wish I could just prod him as I would someone next to me. I'm at the end of my rope and can't wait to move. July!
