Can A Pillow Save A Marriage?

New, Advanced Pillow Design Offers Relief for People Who Snore – and Their Significant Others!

There have been dozens of snore relief products manufactured in the past decade. Some of them slightly alter or diminish snoring, but none of them have been truly effective. Snoring not only causes the snorer to lose sleep and deprive themselves of needed rest, but the person who shares their bed suffers from lack of sleep as well. Snoring can be loud – the loudest snore on record logged in at 112.8 d… Continue

Sleepy Dwarf replied to Mary's discussion 'Uncomfortable feeling when falling asleep/waking up'yesterday
Mary, what you're describing sounds very much like a problem experienced by my best friend K. while we were in school together. She often stayed up late studying and sometime eating late, woke up early as a result of class schedules and frequently...
John Walker replied to MLT's discussion 'Allergy to CPAP Mask?'yesterday
Well, that's curious because after my post I took one of my older masks apart, removed the silicone part from it and replaced the newer mask's silicone part with the older mask's silicone part. Four days later my rash is almost completely gone. M...
Zan replied to MLT's discussion 'Allergy to CPAP Mask?'on Thursday

Always exhausted, Sleep study showed nothing wrong, Nothing helps
I’m a 31 year old female and I’ve been constantly exhausted my entire life. When I was a kid, I was chronically sleep deprived and had a terrible time falling asleep and waking up. It would take at least 2 hours or more just to fall asleep, and I ...
John Walker replied to MLT's discussion 'Allergy to CPAP Mask?'June 25
I happened on this thread through a Google search. Very interesting, as this is exactly the same thing that I have been experiencing with my new ResMed full face mask. One thing that I would add, and which I find odd, is that this only started ha...

Hey. I recently lost my boyfriend of a year and a half. It was so unexpected that I didn't think it was real. I'm still having a very hard time. He was the one and now I'm so confused. I'm trying to be strong, but I can't. No one understands how I...
