Sleep apnea can cause significant increases in blood pressure through the night. To see what it's like breathe normally for a few minutes then hold your breath for 30 seconds and suck in a deep breath of air. Repeat this process for a few hours while monitoring your blood pressure and you'll see it can cause a nasty increase.

This is why sleep apnea is so dangerous. A person may have only slightly elevated blood pressure during the day but at night as they sleep (with untreated sleep apnea) damage is being done to cardiac tissue, brain tissue, and blood vessels.

Clonidine can get you high?

No it can't get you high, its used to treat high blood pressure and can be used for opiate withdrawal. I was in a detox center for 5 days because I was addicted to oxycodone and they gave me clonidine for my withdrawals but taking more than a few clonidine at one time is very bad, basically you'll blackout and might not wake up so don't take more than 3 depending on the mg, id only take 3you if they are are .1mg
