How long did it take you to get used to your CPAP machine?

I knew from the start I wasn’t going to go for the mask. I requested the nasal pillows. It came with three different size nasal pillows. I was able to try each to see which were the most comfortable for me. It actually only took me about 30 minutes to get used to breathing through my nose and not my mouth. At first I felt like I wasn’t getting enough air and would open my mouth to suck in some air. But I kept trying and after a bit I realized I was fine. Now I know there is mouth tape that some use to keep there mouth closed while sleeping. I am allergic to adhesive so not for me. But again it didn’t take me long to just automatically keep my mouth closed while sleeping.
