[quote=Anonymous]Good god!  Did I write this post in my sleep?!  What you describe was my situation exactly! It's so horrible!  Mine has been a multi-year battle.  For a long time I could kick him out of the bedroom but that didn't work when we had guests and then we had too many kids (3 kids, 2 bedrooms).  If he slept on the couch, he'd wake the kids - his snoring even drove the dog away!.  And, what about vacation?  It's hard to get separate rooms on vacation.

I, too, was near divorce.  I was suffering from long term sleep deprivation, it was affecting my health and I pulled up a lot of research showing what it was doing to me and to him.  He, too, was sleep deprived, low energy, putting on weight and affecting cognitive performance.  Did you know that sleep deprivation can mimic the symptoms of ADHD?  My DH's got that too (which is bad enough) but it was making his symptoms that much worse and it rendered the medication useless.  I hated to do it but I told him that I couldn't let his snoring continue to effect my health like it was and that he was going to have to make a choice because things couldn't go on the way they were.  We have a solution - the CPAP.  If that's not working for him, then he needs to come up with another solution.  That seemed to make the difference and he's been pretty good about using it.

About denying that he's snoring - why the hell do they deny snoring?  What the hell do they think is waking us up?  I recorded him on my phone one night and played it back for him.  It's also hard for him to deny when the kids chime in that his snoring is so loud and, of course, there's the dog that leaves when he starts snoring and comes back when he (DH) goes to another room. Ugh.  I hate snoring.[/quote]
