In brief:
Have it adjusted
The company that supplies your CPAP machine can adjust the mask to fit you better.

Newer CPAP machines start at lower pressures too so it starts ramping up after you go to sleep and start to obstruct. Patience is the big one though once you have a good fitting mask.

In brief:
Adjustments.
Most patients can adjust to CPAP use.
Read instructions, talk to CPAP resource, or sleep doc.
