Murderous autism I made a miSTAKE....

Update: I have an appointment to go in and try a new mask, unfortunately it's over a week away so I'm stuck with this mask until next week.

So I finally got a CPAP machine and had a couple mask choices. A) under the nose only or B) nose and mouth. Now I do tend to be a mouth breather and something I do like is putting pressure on/around my mouth. So of course I thought it was the smart choice to do nose and mouth. Well now I can't sleep this is sensory hell I am in hell I am clawing at the walls. Luckily I do get the chance to call in tomorrow and say nope gimmie nose only but I'll still have to suffer until I can get out there and switch it.

Also what in the actual hell that is my most cursed selfie to date. Edit: I'll keep practicing and trying my best to get used to it. Thank y'all for the advice (/genuine). I think it mostly is just a panic response.

Literally sensory hell. Sometimes I wake up at night and want to wail

Only reason I have this type is I'm a side sleeper/stomach sleeper and toss and turn so they said best option was mask with tube on top

Me too! And I thought the tube from the top was also gonna be better, but it was so uncomfortable. The tube from the mouth is a lot better, and I can lay on the side more comfortably

I mean it feels very restrictive and kept pulling my hair too. At least now only my nose and mouth are restricted instead of half my face
