If possible, maybe you should try another mask

I have no idea on how to glue the mask to your face. I would suggest you try another mask -- I know they're expensive, but from reading this forum it seems like there is a lot of differences between masks and what will work for someone else won't necessarily work for you (and visa versa). For example: I use the ResMed UltraMirage mask and I have almost none of the problems you describe - but others have said they can't get it to work for them. Maybe your DME (durable medical equipment) supplier will let you try other masks?
