No I wasn't waking myself up. But my sleep was Disturbed as I never quite had a solid REM sleep which is needed for the brain to regenerate itself. I feel better physically too by the way.

According to my partner I would stop breathing then suddenly gasp for air and this was going on hundreds of times a night.

I switched from a face mask to a nose mask and even more of an improvement. I certainly feel better. My sleep routine is now balanced. I am going to bed later - which I couldn't do before I was so exhausted. I am not napping during the day. I have more energy.
