Snore No More and Jere, I agree in that I do not trust any doctors (for that matter I don't trust anyone "DTA"), so therefore, I do not entirely rely upon their advice. Prior to knowing that I had GAD, I was miss diagnosed multiple times times by multiple doctors. Note: This will be my first lenghty...

Thank you! You posts have really helped put my mind at ease. It's hard when you think your the only one that literally feels like pulling all of your hair out just to stop your brain from thinking about everything else. It nice to know that others with severe psychological problems have had success ...

I do not like the Xanax because it seems to give me a hangover feeling. No headaches or anything, but just like this blah feeling. After I wake from it, I basically feel like I'm this zombie for about 4 hours afterwards and can't really think or fully function. That's why my mother is trying to get ...

Thank you. That makes me feel a little better. My mother takes ativan and has receommended that I try that inconjunction with my Lexapro due to the panic attacks I sometimes get and the fact that I do not like having to take the Xanax. Do you tend to take your meds at night or in the morning? Have y...

Lexapro for Anxiety & effects on OSA
I was taking Lexapro for my General Anxiety Disorder, but stopped because of a warning on one of the threads regarding not being a very good mix with having OSA. Now I have a new problem: Now I can barely sleep at all with my Anxiety back in full force and the additional pressure of trying to make m...

Way cool, man! Now I can alternate between a drink dispenser and a bong. I be one happy dude! Peace. I pondered this one for a while.... Then realized that this concept must really reduce the harshness on your throat. Combined with the heated hose and a few alterations, some flower child must be in...

I used to feel the same way, then this past Friday I came across a post on another thread where someone also recommended turning off the ramp feature. So, I tried it this past weekend and to my surprise - It worked! I feel much more comfortable putting my mask on with full pressure already going. (M...

I just got my Comfort Curve last week and experienced some of the same whistling noises others had described on this forum. Luckily, I remembered someone suggesting using teflon tape around the elbow joints to make it stop. So, I stumbled to the garage and managed to find some and did exactly as the...

Actually, I am having a very similar problem except that I am not so neat about it. Apparently, I like to throw things across the room in my sleep, or actually just cpap things. Although, I used my new Comfort Curve mask last night for the first time and kept it on longer than usual. I've thought ab...

I must say that the reception and my first experiences in this particular thread from a couple people have really been nasty. It certainly makes me hesitate to want to chime in on other topics. Never hesitate to chime in. If someone disagrees with you, they disagree with you, and will no doubt let ...

Well, my husband wouldn't let me build an actual steam room...Wahhh, so I had to do something. (I think I'm spoiled) It was a B*t*h to build though (excuse my french), especially the tile ceiling. Weird, my husband is a foreman, yet I do most of the renovations. Bill, I'll let you use my shower if y...
