I still sleep with tape across my mouth - I normally use 3 small vertical pieces & never feel choked. Naturally, I always remove the tapes when I'm heading for the loo at night at a festival!

Recently I had a small afternoon nap & woke with a very dry mouth so must have been mouth breathing. I've also had naps where I don't wake with a dry mouth.

I still have trouble breathing thru my nose all the time, but I'm much better than I was 4 years ago.
