A Forum For All Things CPAP

If you just recently started CPAP, you may be experiencing "REM Rebound". Before being treated with CPAP, you were unable to get sufficient REM sleep. Now you are getting an excess of REM and typically more dreams occur in REM that other stages. REM Rebound will eventually pass when your REM deficit is paid back.La Zona wrote:The past couple of nights I have been having very vivid dreams in which I know I am dreaming...so I can control the dreams. Most of the time I am flying a fighter jet like Tom Cruise in Top Gun...or sometimes a space ship like in Battle STar Gallactica or Star Wars. And my co-pilot is a sexy bikini model. Probably has something to do with the mask.

The other possibility is that something is awakening you and you then have a vivid memory of the dream. Try this the next time you awaken from a vivid dream. Turn your CPAP off for just a second and then restart it and try to go back to sleep. The next day when you look at your daily detail data you can see where you awoke from the dream by looking for the short period where you had the machine off. If you had events just before the machine was turned off, it may be that the events are waking you.

yes i am from here thats a silly question people deserve a nice dreams
That would be very rare or drug-induced. It is natural to awaken several times during the night. A "good sleeper" might fall back to sleep quickly and never remember the next morning that he had several awakenings.La Zona wrote: i dont think i am being awaken because i only wake up now after 8 or 9 hours of sleep
I sleep through the night and also sleep 8 to 10 hours. I don't take any drugs/meds to make me sleep or that cause sleepiness. Husband is the same way when he is not on the road. I guess we both have strong bladders.Sheffey wrote:That would be very rare or drug-induced. It is natural to awaken several times during the night.

But still, consider yourself blessed with good sleep.
Your FAQ is not professionally done. The stages of sleep do not include a "dream stage". Humans dream in all stages of sleep.cpaptotalcare wrote:dream stage
LOL as a non Californian. And by the way, that would apply double to folks in Hawaii.postitnote wrote:People living in California should have nice dreams! No excuse not to.La Zona wrote:LSAT wrote:La Zona wrote:
