Umm Hell no! I'm not claustrophobic but unless I was trying out a costume for Halloween that would not be going on my face ever!

What makes me a bit crazy is all the casual nonsense that proceeds from the comments, lots of people who don't know much about CPAP... peppered with people offering good advice etc...

As a huge fan of the alien franchise I can comfortably say no thank you.

I would get one and keep it hidden until after my wife went to sleep. I would then put it on and go to sleep just to surprise her in the morning. Of course, she would probably try to kill it when she first saw it. :lol: :lol:

That sounds like a bad way for you to wake up!

I'm afraid that would send both of you to the ER - one for a heart attack, the other for battery to the head. Not the way to start your morning. :roll:

The problem with getting this mask is your partner will become accustomed to seeing you with an alien on your face.

Then what happens when a real alien attaches to you, or for that matter even a local animal. Will they be alarmed and do anything? NO. They're just gonna think and possibly sing, "Won't be fooled again."

I suggest before getting this mask, you revisit the timeless classic, The Boy Who Cried Wolf.
