    So fucked. I discovered an interesting study from a few years ago. They were studying the psychological effects of wearing masks, but keep in mind these were consenting adults not wearing them for 8+ hours a day for more than a year. Here's a couple quotes from the study.

    in the masked condition, they felt less themselves: e.g. less like a person, felt that there was no ‘me’, felt that they had lost part of their identity, or felt that their personality had changed. It also includes two participants who talked about this transformation more in terms of becoming an-other: i.e. they felt like they had a different identity, like they were ‘a little bit alien’, like they had become ‘a stranger…, somebody else, somebody anonymous’, or like they were ‘someone different’

    This was from a study in 1999.
    …you do feel a little bit alien, because you know that you appear strange to other people… It made you feel less like a person, that you haven’t got a face, you haven’t got that bit of you which other people see first and quite often recognise you by, so it sort of takes away a bit of your identity, and—I dunno…

    You can check out the full article here, along with a download to the study. I also go over why post oximetry isn't a good indication of whether or not someone is suffocating themselves.
