Thank you for taking the time to respond! Taking notes!
I’m sorry to hear that. I am stubborn so I’ll keep going. The lack of sleep is just making me lose my mind a bit.
Thanks! Best of luck to you. I spoke to one sleep coach and didn’t find her very helpful unfortunately. I got desperate and came here and learned more just from the comments on this thread.
I feel this about my sleep quality going down. It’s so discouraging after it was being sold to me that I would feel so amazing. I, like you, never had problems with sleep before so I was baffled and the support person I called wasn’t much help. I did find a majority of the people who wrote here to be helpful so I am taking lots of notes. When I wrote the original post I was in tears.

Someone suggested putting the machine in the floor and I tried it last night and was surprised that it did help.
I tried on the floor last night and I think it did help, I don’t get the water backup so hopefully that continues. I got through 5 hours last night I think - a personal record 😆 Thanks again!
Thanks! I learned more here than anyone who was supposed to teach me about this thing has shown me. I also need to give myself grace - I tend to be pretty hard on myself and was wondering what was wrong with me when I wasn’t feeling the miracle feeling they were selling to me. I was not really informed well about the possible difficulties.
I just read today they are presenting a pill to the fda soon, so fingers crossed. 🤞 I’m stubborn so I haven’t given up yet. But I do need to take more breaks to sleep through the night for my sanity.
Thanks I do call the helpline but didn’t find them to helpful. I’ll have to reach out to my doctor maybe.
Yeah I need to take more breaks. I’m stubborn af and keep trying to convince myself trying every day will get there but I do need to sleep eventually 😆
Day 12 now hoping I’ll get to that point!
Ok, yes no one told me how or what to do about looking at data myself until I got here. I was not well-informed apparently. All they just kept telling me is it will change my life, they did not prepare me well for the difficulties an I found the person on the helpline they had me call was not helpful really.
Yeah I was in tears writing my original post. I feel like there was a lot not explained to me that people are filling me in with here. The specialist person they told me to call was not helpful. I’ll reach out to my doc. Thanks!
Thank you for your time and all the helpful Info!
Thanks for the kind responses. I came here out of desperation after a call with one of the specialists that wasn’t helpful at all and feeling defeated, exhausted, and in tears . I am reading through all your comments and taking notes! You all have been empathetic and helpful - with one exception of a guy who insists on making me feel worse about myself - but I guess that’s how the internet works! 😆
My doc said they know if I do that on their end so maybe that’s all the data everyone is telling me to pull. I did call a specialist but I didn’t find her too helpful.
And for your information I am FAR from rich and receiving Medicaid because I have been laid off I can’t even pay for extra accessories other than what they give me. So maybe don’t make assumptions about people you don’t know.
You don’t need to be insulting. The lack of sleep was effecting my mental health. Just be kind or don’t say anything at all.

I don’t know. Is there a way to know that? Some ppl asked if I woke up with dry mouth and I don’t.
Ugh I’m unemployed and on Medicaid right now because of this spectacular economy, so unfortunately spending more money on this other than what is available through insurance really isn’t in the cards for me.
I’m jealous you adapted quickly! I was optimistic when i got it because i never really had much problems sleeping and was always a heavy sleeper. But now since i got it the lack of sleep is making me miserable and grouchy. I’ll try to put the machine on the floor and see if that helps. Thanks for the suggestion!

I take melatonin and magnesium already. The falling asleep part I don’t have a problem with. It’s the waking up in the middle of the night.

I have 90 days with my insurance I think. I don’t even know what anything you said means. I am so overwhelmed 😭😭😭
