CPAP makes me MORE tired

... but I'm sleeping well?

I just started using my cpap machine, and I wake up every morning significantly more tired than when I didn’t use it.

I am sleeping through the night (6-8 hours on cpap), dreaming much more vividly and waking up extremely slowly – as if I’m coming out of anesthesia. But I’m very, very tired when I wake up (and tired through the day). I could roll over and sleep for another two hours, and I have never been someone who naps during the day. I have been consistent for the past two weeks but the tiredness is not getting better.

Before going on cpap, I would wake up immediately. I’ve never felt like this before.
