Hi there Muted thanks for the thread

All I remember before waking up is being in our garage with ice on this windows and just feeling terrified.

I’m hoping to get a machine this week. I woke up on my back, which is when my partner says I typically quit breathing.

There must be more there to that memory maybe the cpac will help with your breathing I think, but not the nightmare. You may want to look deeper into the garage with ice on the windows, did some thing happen that you don't have good memories of. Just thoughts hope it helps.
Peace be safe

You can Google "dream meanings" and maybe find some ideas on what those things are associated with? Sleep apnea is worse when we sleep on backs. It's easier for the windpipe to close off in that position. It's the best way to sleep for the sleep study.

I had taught myself to sleep on my back because of my pain issues, so I am trying to retrain myself again. I stop breathing MULTIPLE times in an hour. We are still working to get my "events" under 10 per hour.

@Esterio has a good thought about there being a forgotten memory trying to come up?

I am sorry that this happened to you! Our subconscious keeps q...

Thank you! I did have some old trauma related things that I worked through that came up early afternoon. I wasn’t sure what triggered them, but now I do think it’s related.

I’m under a lot of stress right now and I think there are fears with that.

5) IF this becomes a cycle? Look at ways to moderate the effects, and maaaaaaybe meds.

Thankfully, it didn’t happen again last night, but my partner said I was talking in my sleep, but he could understand what I was saying. I did wake up at almost the exact same time, but I couldn’t go back to sleep.

You may want to look deeper into the garage with ice on the windows, did some thing happen that you don't have good memories of.

I think I may know what triggered it, it’s so weird how the brain processes things!
