lol apnea or sleep apnea
yea i have that and i know what it feels like to ask someone "hey ever forget to breathe?" but they just look at you like you are crazy and dont know how to use your lungs -.-
yea at night it will be really quiet but then you notice it is too quiet and proceed to take a deep breath in
i cant remember if there is a cure.. there must be though

I believe it is called "apnea". Not sure if I spelled that right, but hopefully that will help.

"Apnea" is the absence of breathing.
"Bradypnea" is slow breathing.
"Orthopnea" is upright breathing.
