Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

Have you been checked for sleep apnea?

Well now I'm going to ask about it

Getting diagnosed was very positive for me. I did a sleep study and I was stopping breathing like a dozen times on average per hour. Started using a CPAP machine and after getting used to it and training myself to keep it on through the night, I now actually feel refreshed after sleeping after years of wondering why I feel like crap all the time

This makes me excited to get my machine. I did a home test last week and stopped breathing an average of 35 times per hour over seven hours of sleep. Doctor wouldn’t tell me if it was bad or not just that it was well over the line to get a machine. Hoping to have one in the next week or two. I’ve been tired constantly for as long as I can remember, at least the past decade. Really hoping to have similar results as you have experienced.
