Hi @audriana, I’m also struggling with trying to get use to my CPAP. I was diagnosed with insomnia two years ago and this isn’t helping. I’ve stopped using my CPAP temporarily after seven months of frustration from not being able to get to sleep with my mask on. I’m waiting until 9/3 (Medicare requirements-every six mos) to get yet another mask. I’m going to try ResMed N30i mask as it looks the least restrictive. I sleep with my mouth open and have started using tape which I feel is helping. I get severe dry mouth and use Xylimelts (sleep doc recommended) and they work great. For my insomnia I’m doing visualization, sleeping hygiene, sunshine. My doc suggested I take Magnesium Glycinate 400 mg. Benefits include helping manage headaches (I get ice pick headaches), anxiety and insomnia. I take it one hour before bedtime. What I did to qualify for my equipment was wear it for at least four hrs in the evening while watching tv. I would sometimes even doze off with it on but go to bed and a different story! That’s the only way I could qualify since, like you, I can’t sleep with it on. Very frustrating!
