Just some concerns. I was diagnosed with mild
sleep apnea about 4 months ago. I went for my second
sleep study a month ago and I had to
leave because I could NOT wear the mask I felt like I was suffocating. Then I have anxiety so that made it worse. Well i havent had a good night
sleep in forever and I am thinking I might just have to suck it up and wear the mask. Like last night i had a hard time falling asleep because as I would drift off to
sleep I would wake up and can't breath. Once I finally fell asleep I was fine I remember dreaming and everything. Its just getting to
sleep thats hard. I dont know what else to do. I know a lot of people say the mask is hard to wear at first but once you get used to it , it is no problem.

Try wearing the mask while watching TV till you can get used to it. A guy told me that when I first started and it helped me with the mask. Good Luck
