Had a week off of #vacation (well, #staycation) and my life has been so stressful, I pretty much did nothing, and it feels like the most I can do. One more rest day Monday. Back in the melee Tuesday with a lot coming due at work. Will try to borrow the telescope (friend will loan me a 12 inch dob) and do some observing at least one night this week... #astronomy is a hobby where I just need to show up, and there is understanding and camaraderie and nerdy parallel play, and all I have to do is stare at the sky. Grateful I am able to participate this, it's been a challenge treating #SleepApnea and #sleep maintenance issues. #neurodivergent

Sleep apnea episodes up to well over 10 an hour over the last few days. This is not good as I'm supposed to be at 5 or less. I've been averaging 3. I'm not sure what's going on, but it ain't good. Hoping to not pop my clogs during the night. Might not be found for a month of Sundays... #sleepApnea #SleepApnoea

7. After a bit of an interrupted night - a sore septum night last night - with rough sleep from 5am when I took off the mask, I can't believe I used to cope on sleep interrupted by bad dreams and abrupt gasping wakings. I don't know how I did it.
So if you think you might have #sleepApnea #sleepApnoea get yourself checked out. If you need to sleep with a #CPAP it's not the end of the world. Some people sail through, I made hard work of it, but it works in the end.

This is an update on my experience of learning to sleep with a #CPAP machine. It's intended primarily as encouragement for anyone newly diagnosed with #sleepApnea #sleepApnoea, because for me, early on, reading about other people's success stories was the only way I stuck with it.
I was diagnosed November 2024, which I wasn't really expecting. I really really wasn't expecting to be told I needed to sleep with a CPAP machine and was a bit alarmed at the prospect esp being claustrophopbic cont'd

There are days when people achieve everything they set out to do? 😂Seriously though, on the days I need it #modafinil is great for #alertness
Not every day as they're not cheap (where I am about $2 per pill). I learnt about it from a #MichaelMosley documentary about #sleep You need a #prescription for them though (where I am anyway). It's a #stimulant like #caffeine but without the side-effects, like #jitters

PSA: If your partner says you stop breathing in your sleep / you have terrible snoring / you fall asleep when sat down for any length of time, you might just have #SleepApnoea (#SleepApnea for our trans-Atlantic chums) - worth getting checked out.

My trusty CPAP machine has been keeping me alive and somewhat functional for the last 9 nine years, but yesterday it was time to break out the Torx screwdriver set and replace the blower motor 🪛😅
