New User...Looking for advice on upgrading my mask

Hello everyone

Long time lurker. Needing some advice on upgrading my mask. Currently using a Amara View full face mask. I am a side sleeper only, mouth breather constantly. Also have a large beard. I've been using a cpap machine for almost a year now. I've had poor results, due to lack of consistent use. Most nights, the mask actually keeps me up, so I rip it off in frustration. On other nights, I take it off in the middle of the night and have no idea I am doing this. I've been doing some research and a lot of what I've read has pointed me to upgrading my mask. Can I get some feedback on this? I am looking for a mask that goes OVER my nose because I rarely get my mask to fit underneath my nose properly. I am thinking this will help.

Thanks in advance for any help.

If it's of any help, I have a beard and mustache and have no issue with my nasal mask (comfort gel). I'm not sure why you were given a full face mask, so I can't say whether a nasal one will do (even if it fits well).

Probably because of this, that's why I said the FFM.. Otherwise I would have recomended the P10 Pillow mask...
