I feel asleep with the mask on and sleep three or so hours with it on!! I'm happy I am finally overcoming this mental block!! Thanks to everyone for your suggestions on how to accomplish this. It was appreciated!
I have found using the Eson nasal mask, along with the pressure set at 2, the humidifier set at 1, and the heated tubing turned off works very well.
Success!!

Re: Success!!
Congratulations.
Give your self a nice little reward - one you give yourself only after a successful night. Sometimes this is like training a puppy, rewards, lots of love and pats on the head.

Re: Success!!
The outside of my nose gets awful dry while using the mask. What would I use to prevent this?
