My Husband has Sleep Apnea & has just came back from the hospital, as he under went a "Sleep Study" as he stops breathing in his sleep, he's constantly knackered during the day and I have said before do you know you stop breathing and he says no, he gets out of bed several times a night and doesnt realise he's doing it. Perhaps, your still asleep and thats why you dont know you do it..

Why can you breathe when you dream a bad dream?

This question might be asking why it is sometimes difficult to breathe when you have a bad dream, or why you sometimes awaken gasping for breath after a bad dream. The reason is that the bad dream triggers your body's physical reaction to danger or fear just as a real waking experience would do. The emotions in the dream cause the release of the "fight or flight" hormone adrenaline which in turn increases your breathing and heart rate. These responses are entirely natural and quite normal.
