I’m a newbie to CPAP, nearly three weeks. I use the Resmed F30i, find it’s fairly comfortable.
I’m struggling to get to sleep with my CPAP and wondering if others had similar circumstances in the beginning. It’s such a big adjustment and know it takes time, being a light sleeper isn’t helping!

Hello Mattie77. This is a good question.
I've been on CPAP for about 17 years. Also, I am a very light sleeper. It took me a while to get used to the sound and sense of wearing a CPAP face mask and head gear. During this period of CPAP use, I went through several masks and settled on a nasal pillow and head gear obtained from Phillips Respironics. I believe it is called Dreamwear.
Please be patient with yourself. It may take a while to adjust to wearing your mask and head gear and using your CPAP equipment. You may even change masks and head gear. I urge you not to give up. You will eventually be rewarded with the benefits of this sleep therapy. I have benefitted very noticeably.
Wish you success and great sleep!
