I feel like i can get 8-10 hours of sleep and still need a nap during the day.

I've also been told I snore like a freight train by many an ex..

I always thought I was too skinny/ in shape for sleep apnea, but we shall see.

Probably going to ask about a sleep study at my local health clinic

No overbite but has had pretty severe teeth grinding while sleeping which is related. And all this is related to stress as well. Likely getting a late diagnosis of adhd soon as well.

His doctor explained his tongue relaxes so fully it blocks the airway.

Yeah us skinny-average weight dudes usually have like tounge or jaw or teeth problems when we have apnea.

In my case I think it's my slight overbite is causing my lower jaw to slide to far back when I'm sleeping and blocking my airway

Best of luck to him. I know how hell adhd can be as well.
