Not sure how much effect our had. My wife says that my voice is clearer and I have less flat affect. I only slept until about 2:00 AM. Put the mask back on at 4:00. I think I need to increase humidity.
My CPAP has a reservoir that can be filled with water to increase the humidity. It also has a temperature control to modify the evaporation rate of the water in the reservoir.
Most of the time, I don't put water in it, but I leave it in place because it acts like a muffler for the noise of the unit, which would otherwise travel down the air tube and keep me awake.
I've used a CPAP for quite a while and it does me a lot of good. I second your plan to increase the humidity setting. I run mine as high as I can without a lot of condensation (I really hate that whistle it gets with droplets in the mask). I also have a zipper jacket on the hose, which helps reduce condensation in cooler weather.
It might take several weeks for you to adjust to the cpap......that was my experience. But when you adjust...zzzzzz
