Could stress cause sleep apnea or sleep apnea like symptoms? I have been stressed because of school and work etc and have never experienced anything like I did last night. I would be asleep and then stop breathing a couple seconds wake up, go back to sleep and the same thing would happen all throughout the night. My chest is definitely feeling it this morning because it is really sore.
I’m not even sure is one episode would even be considered “sleep apnea” What do you think? Any advice on what I should do. I mean I was reading about it and it said its mostly common amoung adults, i’m 19 years old. Could it just be stress? Should I have anythign to worry about?

go see your doctor!!!!
Its not hard to determine if you have sleep apnea, your Dr. will send you to a sleep clinic where you will spend the night while they monitor your sleep and breathing patterns. totally painless!!!
You can die from untreated apnea though.
