Anxiety and other mental illness seem to be comorbid with OSA... https://www.mdedge.com/psychiatry/article/79840/depression/awakening-dangers-obstructive-sleep-apnea Even health insurers are grouping these.
Awakening to be chocked off can cause a surge of noreprenephrine / adrenaline.
85% of those with OSA don't know it. A sleep study can be performed.

"Thanks for your reply. Oh yeah I do not regret my somnoplasty -not one bit. To finally be able to breathe exclusively through the nose during the day is a gift. After the surgery, I started to realize that my anxiety levels have gone down dramatically...perhaps due to the NO production and better regulation of O2 and CO2 levels."
Anxiety case. I'm sure there are more, but when you search the web for anxiety and orthodontia most of it is about being anxious about the treatment. LOL Hard to find case studies with those search terms.
Hey there! Just wanted to say that if you're dealing with anxiety, PTSD, schizophrenia, or any psychiatric illness, know that you're not alone. Reach out to professionals and support networks for guidance and understanding.
