I’ve also been looking into alternatives to help with sleep, especially central apnea. Tried a few CBD oils myself, with mixed results, but I do think quality and guidance make a big difference.
I used to knock myself out with alcohol just to get some rest, but it wrecked my sleep long-term. Felt like I was trading one problem for ten more. Cutting back wasn’t easy, but it actually made a huge difference once I got into a better routine.
Totally agree, daily cleaning is ideal, but realistically it doesn’t always happen. I just make sure to get a deep clean in every few days and it’s been working fine. As for the diffuser, I leave it in, dries just fine overnight.
That really does change things, especially if CPAP hasn’t helped after all this time. Sorry you’re going through that. In that case, yeah, the whole “just manage it with therapy” advice kind of falls flat. Have you had any luck finding work that accommodates your sleep pattern, or has it all been a dead end so far?
I’ve had bad reactions to THC-heavy weed too (racing heart, full-on panic), so I was really cautious with CBD at first.
What helped was starting super low and choosing a clean, well-reviewed source. I’ve personally had a good experience with the cbd shop, they’re pretty transparent about what’s in their products, and that gave me peace of mind. The oil I tried didn’t get me high at all, just took the edge off stress without messing with my head.
It's good to see this place still going strong, even after all this time. Let's keep it alive!!
If they’re not doing the job, especially with your allergies, that’s a problem. The discoloration on the ResMed ones actually shows they’re capturing particles, which is pretty key.
Frustrating. Even with CPAP, some people still struggle with daytime sleepiness. It might help to talk to your doctor about meds to stay alert during work.
glad you caught it before something worse happened. I’m going to check my AirSense 10 tonight.
It might help to look for companies that offer flexible hours or work from home, so you can adjust your hours to suit your needs. Before the interview, you can honestly mention that you have an ongoing treatment and that you're managing the situation with CPAP or other therapies - many employers appreciate honesty and adaptability.
