I agree.
Twin pony tails, positioned just right, no nonsense from the p10.
I can imagine the horns have dug their own little cutouts into the pillow.
I hope PR is as comfy as the picture in my head.

Mask, 4 hair clips to hold the headgear in place, a ponytail holder to keep the hose in place, a hose cover, lip balm, and tape for my mouth. I am still a work in progress too!

. I looked “encased” in a torture device.
Just don't take this so far that you start psyching yourself out, attitude is important for success.
Definitely not. I don’t get too hung up on looks. My little ones find it funny looking and they’ve taken their own “Kodak” moments with me without my knowledge!

Wifey just says it looks torturous but to be honest all the stuff on my face is hardly uncomfortable and my mind knows that masking up = go to bed soon. The getup I have now make things quite comfy which makes papping that much more successful for me. BUT if I had to tack on even more stuff then maybe I’d get psyched out. Then again if I had to use a cervical collar or mouth taping or a chin strap I wouldn’t be using a FFM either.

Somebody once posted an image of a mouth restraint device that could have only been BDSM.

I suppose worries about such things are a reason why CPAP masks only come in clear instead of a more refined and less medical looing black color. I mean as long as you don't make the CPAP masks out of black leather or shiny vinyl with chrome fittings black should be fine, right? :thinking:

Hybrid mask with extra strap (looped ponytail scruchies) to help keep pillows in place and microfleece strap covers I made, lip balm, eye mask. I used to sleep with a recording oximeter until the LED display died. Soft fabric sleep shirt. My 3" soft barrel bolster to position top pillow at just the right angle (I grip the edges of the pillowcase). Oh, and a microfleece rectangle to cover the top pillow so if the vent gets angled toward the pillow the sound won't wake me up.
