Re: Sleep Apnea Support/Questions Thread
Give it time, hotreds. Took me about 3 MONTHS to make it through a night without yanking the mask off. Now, I love my CPAP machine.
One of the big issues I had at first was waking up with a dry nose. I had to turn the humidifier to max to feel good when I woke up.
YMMV, of course.
Before my CPAP machine, I had no idea what it felt like to sleep a full 8 hours. Or to wake up WITHOUT a sore throat from snoring. Or what it was like to NOT have your wife elbowing me to get me to get me to shut up my snoring. She used to wake up, NOT hear me snoring, and get scared that I had died in my sleep. This, of course, led to her sleeping poorly.
It does take time to get used to, but I'm glad I stuck it out.
