Hey, people, since Esel is in Switzerland, much of this cute banter is not only unhelpful, but somewhat insulting.
Cpap works because the pressure inside your airway is more than outside your body, like blowing up a balloon.
Before masks were used for air, there was the iron lung, which made a partial vacuum around the patient's body,
This made air rush into the patient's lungs--good if one could not breathe at all otherwise.
There was some discussion of this several years ago, but being locked inside a steel tank to sleep
would be very inconvenient, especially if one woke up to a full bladder.

If a real concern try a liner to protect the skin and decrease air blowing into the eyes. http://padacheek.com/esel wrote: I have to admit I do not like the mask. I have read skin and now psoriasis apeared where the mask applies. I slowly get used to the air blowing in my eyes but the main problem is waking up so often from the noise it makes on leaks.

Don't worry about it. It's normal on the internet.esel wrote:Hey, I am sorry, I didn't mean to upset any one.

Re: Need help for my CPAP room
There are CPAP helmets, but they're cumbersome, and may require a special CPAP machine due to the higher leak rates.
