Hang around and tell others your story. Lots of people come here taking sedatives and anti-depressants when they should have been prescribed CPAP.

The Coptic "wahe" became Arabic "wahah" which means "oasis".

If you're pulling it off, peel it off instead.

I was once in an asthma forum online where a woman insisted that a fan blowing in her face treated her sleep apnea, because it blew air into her mouth.
