Re: so depressed.. do i really have to wear this??

hang in there!! the mask is hard for some people. its been over 2 years, I still dont like it but its much better with it than without it. i love the feeling of dozing off with out the mask but its just worth it. honestly i dont how i could have made it through the last 2 year w/o my bipap
