who_needs_sleepHi, all. I've had a CPAP for about 5 years now, but I stopped using it for a long time. I'm trying to get back into the habit of using it every night, but it's very rare I can keep it on all night - most of the time I end up either taking it off in my sleep, or not putting it back on after I've gotten up to go to the bathroom.
The mask isn't the problem - I like it just fine, as far as having something plastic strapped to your face all night goes.
Has anyone else managed to overcome this problem? I'd really like to solve it - I feel much better when I've managed to keep it on all night, and a coworker of mine recently had a friend die in his sleep at age 30 from a heart attack brought on by his apnea, so needless to say I'm motivated.
