I need help right away please.?

I just got a cpap machine but it seems I've developed a new problem, every time I start to doze off, I stop breathing and wake myself up. I haven't had a good night's rest in 3 days. My cpap is for obstructive sleep apnea, but now I have what seems like central sleep apnea. Please help me I don't know how much more I can take.

    Many people say that the device is not helpful at first.

    "Some people, when they start CPAP therapy, discover almost right away the relief of sleeping all night long without waking up once. Others may take their time to adjust, which is more typical.

    "One thing remains true for both types of users: the more they use it, the easier CPAP becomes to use, and over time, they find it a welcome luxury to use their CPAP machine, as it returns to them the good nights of sleep they had been missing out on for years."

    "CPAP .. is considered the "gold standard" for treating obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)"
