Why You Snore Like Cerberus, Sleep Apnea, CPAP, and the “Autopilot Brain” Problem

If you snore like a mythological guard dog and wake up tired anyway, this episode is for you. We break down what sleep apnea looks like in real life, why your brain starts running on “autopilot” during the day, and why untreated obstructive sleep apnea can turn driving into a dice roll. Then we get into the AHI scoreboard, sleep tests, and the brutally unsexy truth about CPAP masks, nasal pillows, and why people quit them. We also hit alternatives like oral appliances, weight loss as a lever, and the weird-but-funny corner of sleep fixes, yes including instrument practice.
Not medical advice. If you suspect sleep apnea, talk to a qualified clinician and get tested.
