Abdulfakih - Therapy Thread
RE: Abdulfakih - Therapy Thread
I can't answer which mask. The one that works best and is most comfortable for you. A couple exercises to get better control over pressure with a nasal mask, are to practice talking with the mask. See if you can open your mouth and still control the pressure. Try sipping water or drinking through a straw and swallowing. These skills teach pressure control that can translate from the conscious to the sleep state as they become second nature.

RE: Abdulfakih - Therapy Thread
Understood. Ultimately nasal is more confortable besides the fact that i wakeup from the air leaking on my mouth. Hence why i switched to the F40. Overall F40 is good, but again only for pressures below 9. I can try and practice that control, honeslty when I am awake is easy, but when I am asleep its a bit harder since I cant control it as easy...

It eventually becomes second nature and that subconscious control takes time and conditioning to master.
