Sticker: CPAP Proud

$3.50

One in 15 Americans has sleep apnea, but we don’t talk about it. It’s practically a taboo subject, possibly because apnea is correlated with fatness (though there’s no proven causation).

One of the consequences of us not talking about it is that 80% of people with sleep apnea are undiagnosed. That’s a lot of people whose health and lives are in danger in part because the condition is so highly stigmatized.

I designed these stickers so that those of us who use CPAP devices or want to show solidarity can help normalize sleep apnea and its treatment.

This sticker features a CPAP machine on a white background and the words, CPAP PROUD.

> Round sticker measures 2″ across

> Put it on your laptop, notebook or forehead

> Normalization matters
