Well, things you might experience are waking up out of breath, being excessively tired during the day. If somebody sat and watched you sleep, they would probably hear you snore.

sleep apnea causes a decrease of oxygen to the brain. snoring and high blood pressure are 2 symptoms of it. weight loss helps some people. other people can have a uvula that hangs down to far or has more tissue that can block the airway.

air doesnt get to your lungs for a number of reasons. it can be b/c the back of your tongue kinda falls back into your throat area while sleeping, causing it to block off oxygen. and depending on how your body is, it could be that your air passageway is small to start off w/, making it difficult to breathe. after being 'suffocated' for a few secs, your body goes nuts trying to get some air in.
