Are the effects of chronic sleep apnea similar to the ramifications of sleeping in a reduced oxygen environment? For example, a room with poor ventilation.

I am 22, i work 40 hours a week, and i’m also taking 3 courses this semester. I have about 4-6 hours of asleep every night. Will i be developing any sleeping disorders if i have this much sleep a night. How many hours of sleep should i get for my age? What is healthy?

would this be considered a sleep disorder, medical or psychological?
I’ve had dark circles under my eyes for almost my entire life… I went through alot of abuse as a child, which more often than not occured at night, so I never had proper sleep. can this add up over time? and if so, what can sleep deprivation or sleeping disorders overall affect your health?

I recently did a sleep study and found that I have obstructive sleep apnea and it causes me to wake up during the night – often many times. I go through cycles where the problem gets much worse, one night of poor sleep leads to another worse night of interupted sleep, and so on – sometimes for a month or even more. I have heard that sleep deprivation makes the symptoms of sleep apnea much worse, and as I am searching for the right treatments, I was just interested in finding out why – what is the mechanism that causes this? Very strenuous exercise during the day or early evening can have the same effect. Thank you for any insights.
