      If you snore, then the snoring is definitely why you feel like shit. You will feel way the fuck better with a cpap machine. Needs a prescription.

      It puts a slight pressure into your airways and prevents them from collapsing and causing snoring. Bad snoring is sleep apnea and you just choke yourself out as you sleep.

      If you have allergies but not enough money to just buy a machine, then it might not be the best. The insurance company forces you to use or lose it, and if you have a runny nose and inflamed sinuses you cant wear it, because you cant properly sniffle, it's horrible, makes you gag. Impossible to keep in compliance even though you need it on good days.

      Completely comfortable without allergies. No issues.

      But if you don't have allergies, or you get them occasionally and have a thousand bucks, you can get a CPAP machine. A sleep study might also cost a grand if your insurance doenst cover it.

      You will feel noticeably better, and if you go to sleep without the machine, about 1-2 mornings later you will notice how bad it feels to not have it.

          Everything does, I'd say avoid those brands, you're gonna die earlier from lack of sleep than you would from cancer. Idk if a deviated septum could look like sleep apnea and it's not really that, but a sleep specialist doctor would know

      Interesting, do you nap upright at all, or in some other position? That could be why

          Bingo. 99 percent chance it's sleep apnea. Most people get sleep apnea more when they're laying on their back.

          I waited way too long to get a sleep study and a CPAP. I simply do not feel like shit anymore. Not groggy, less headaches, more energy and focus
