I am unable to use cpap. I hate it. I cannot sleep with it. I take melatonin and a sleep apnea pill to sleep. It does not help 100 percent, but it is better than nothing. It is a struggle.

Hi NellyOcker,

Here's a link to what the Mayo Clinic advises:

mayoclinic.org/healthy-life...

Its fairly typical advice that you'll get from most sources, so it's worth a read. Hopefully, something here will help you. What isn't mentioned: some people have good luck taking OTC supplements like Melatonin or Valerian root. Melatonin is especially popular and I've had decent results from it myself. Best of luck and good results for you!!

Not what you're looking for?
