  Who uses a CPAP?

  Posted by Sj on June 17, 2025 at 4:08 pm

  So, I started using a BiPAP machine a couple months ago, and I have mixed emotions about it.

  Some nights, I put it on and sleep like a baby.

  Some nights, I spend the whole night adjusting so I get a good seal. Or I wake up with dry mouth, feeling like I’m gagging.

  Does anybody else have a mixed experience?

  I use a CPAP. I do sleep much better with it on.
  And, on occasion, I do feel that I spend the whole night adjusting it. Crazy as it sounds, on those nights, if I just “hold” it in place, it seems to work better and then I settle down and get to sleep. So, I think it may be that I am tossing and turning too much initially on those nights. IDK .. I would need someone to monitor me and the sleep study was enough of that nonesense.

    That’s interesting! TBH, that might work for me. I’m going to try that!
