Welcome @omlor, Great to hear that you are sticking with it. Can't tell you how many different masks that I have gone through in my last 4 or 5 years of struggling with my CPAP. I can definitely relate to your CPAP journey. Like you I've tried full face mask, mouth and nasal pillow mask, and even one that covered above my eyes and to my chin like a gas mask 🙃which was a definite no go and got ripped off during the first night. I'm currently back to a Simplus full face mask with guard that touches the middle of your forehead which I started with because it seemed to take the pressure off of my nose but I am waiting for a new one old one that I've used once to see if I can make it work this time - ResMed AirTouch F20.

Thanks again for sharing your experience!

Thank you John, I appreciate you sharing your experiences as well. Yes, I've had great improvement using the ResMed AirTouch F20 as well. I couldn't imagine a full face mask as you tried- I could only imagine how frustrated you were with that! Wish you the best as well.
