Obstructive Sleep Apnea can cause sleepiness during the daytime, changes in personality, loss of memory, depression, headaches, loud snoring and non-restorative sleep. Weight reduction, surgery, positive pressure therapy and positional therapy can help treat the condition. Avoiding alcohol and sedatives is also recommended.
