7. My morning commute is significantly safer.
About three months ago, I committed to a three-hour round-trip commute to work five days a week. Before treatment, my drive to work was a daily battle to stay awake. I tried everything including caffeine, loud music, sticking my hand out the window, and flexing my sphincter (don’t judge me—I saw it once on an episode of Morgan Spurlock’s 30 Days). Sometimes I’d get to work and sleep in the parking lot before I went in, and other times I’d stop and nap on the way. It was a legitimate problem. The CDC estimates that some 72,000 auto accidents a year are a result of drowsy drivers, and there are even federal guidelines that say you’re not medically fit to drive if you’re not treating your sleep apnea. Luckily, that’s not a problem for me. I can’t imagine going back to a life without my CPAP machine.
