We asked 1,500 people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) about the unseen burdens and challenges of living with the disease as part of our Sleep Health Inquiries on Needs and Emotions (SHINE) survey.     The largest survey of its kind conducted to understand the psychosocial impact of OSA to date, the SHINE survey revealed that OSA impacts almost every aspect of a person’s life, including their relationships, work productivity, mental health, and more.    However, this effort is about more than data—it’s about amplifying the voices of those impacted by OSA and ensuring the unmet needs of this community receive the attention they deserve. Discover the full results and access our resources now at https://bit.ly/3Y1zo4y.    We are grateful to all survey participants who shared their personal OSA journeys as well as the national advocacy organizations we consulted to ensure the survey and its analysis accurately represented the experiences and viewpoints of the diverse OSA community, including: Alliance of Sleep Apnea Partners, American Sleep Apnea Association, and Project Sleep.    #OSA #SleepApnea #SleepHealth #ObstructiveSleepApnea 

“My wife has asked me to sleep separately from her.”    “I’ve had more than one relationship fail because of my OSA.” “What would happen if I stopped breathing at night or the middle of the day when my 10-month-old and I are taking a nap?”    These are only a few of many perspectives from people living with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) on how the disease can negatively impact their relationships with loved ones.    Shine a light on living with OSA by spreading the word about our Sleep Health Inquiries on Needs and Emotions (SHINE) survey.
