How to stop my roommate from snoring?
My roommate snores, and it’s very annoying. Her snoring isn’t always regular either, sometimes it get’s VERY loud all of a sudden like a “CAH” sound, as if she’s hacking something up or gasping for air. (I asked her if she had sleep apnea, but she doesn’t know.) Are there any remedies or products that can help her snoring? Do those snore sprays or mouth washes work? I don’t think the nasal strips would work because she said she doesn’t breathe through her nose. (I think she consciously can, but not when she’s asleep.) For a while I made her sleep with an extra pillow to keep her head higher, and it worked a little.
Help! It bothers me so much I want to throw things at her!
Get an anti-snoring pillow. It keeps the person sleeping on their side so they won’t snore.
You can also have her tie a tennis ball to back of night clothes which will stop her from sleeping on her back.
It does sound like she has sleep apnea. She ought to get a referral from a pulmonary MD to go for overnight sleep test.
Buy ear plugs for yourself or get one of those white noise machines.
If she’s congested she can try Benedryl or Zyrtec (at night).
Best of luck
