When I first set up my nebulizer, I took a big gulp from the mouthpiece and coughed quite uncomfortably. I figured the mask would do the same, so I held the mask a little bit out from my face, breathing in shallowly with my mouth first, getting used to it. You can see the vapor and sort of draw it in, like smoke. Best to be gentle and listen to the body. I was able to take deeper and deeper breaths soon, inhaling with either mouth or nose.
