Default CPAP woes!

I am about ready to give up on my cpap. I lay in bed for over an hour each night before I give up and take it off. (I have had trouble falling asleep for years. I hoped that the CPAP for help with my insomnia but it has not.) Then I put it back on a few hours later for a few hours. Wake up coughing(due to sinus drainage) and take it off. Put it back on... I can't seem to lay on my side without a lot of air leaking out. You get the picture. I only have to use it a minimum of four hours each night for my insurance to cover it which I have manged to do (I think). But I am awake for a lot of that time. I turn in the computer disk on Friday and it will show whether I have been in compliance. I have been using it for two months.
