<p>splash mom…I am also a bit claustrophic and have a fear of …turtlenecks! Necklaces…never…and I have cervical problems in my neck now requiring traction three times a day etc…my biggest fear is wearing a cervical collar! aaauauauauauagh.</p>
<p>so…perhaps that is how you approached the “blessing” of the mask on Cpap. I am so glad you feel well after you have a night with the mask on, and hope your mind and body accept CPAP and get the benefits…and begin to experience the mask as part of your natural sleep</p>
