If you are afraid of death, get a machine. If not......it’s a great way to go out. Naturally in your sleep. There are a lot worse ways.
No, it is not.
Your body naturally tries to keep you alive.
You will suffer for a number of years before you die as your brain and body tries to cope with your chronic lack of rest.
No it is not. Apnea often triggers a heart attack or a stroke. The victims usually awaken long enough to know that something very bad is happening.
I have seen the aftermath of such incidents. It is not especially peaceful.
Get the CPAP machine if you need one.
No it’s not and it’s a horrible thing to do to the spouse sleeping next to you. It’s also devastating for kids to wake up and realize that their old man isn’t snoring and rushing into the bedroom to find him dead. The expression on the face of an apnea victim is pretty ugly.
Yeah, you get to lay helpless in bed while fluid builds up around your heart until its pressing so hard your heart cant effectively pump blood any more and you are turning purple and gasping for air to breath, but your heart still trys and forces your blood pressure into astronomical numbers that eventually cause a massive brain bleed or other embolism that finally makes you bleed out.
Great way to go, just like you said.
