I want to say it was for my old Macintosh from when I was a kid, but I could be wrong on that. I also thought it was called Oxygen Man, but appearently I'm wrong on that. Anyways, I was looking for the name of it so I could replay it. Let me explain a little. You were a blue oxygen guy. And you had to run around and unlock doors, and climb ladders and such to get to different doors. If you ran out of oxygen before the level was over, you died. And if you fell from too far a height, you turned into that little blue lump on the bottom right of my drawing. You could get more oxygen, as i drew. The yellow little scuba thing...

PLEASE! seriously help me! Any information would great! And here is my drawing of it!

All I can say is start going through this list:

None of those I'm afraid

That game reminds me a lot of "Space Panic," though the scuba tanks were red in that game, IIRC.

Lode Runner was my first thought, might be worth checking but I don't think that's it.

It looks kind of like load runner, but this game was white and blue! Not black and red.

These color graphics are pretty primitive.

I'd say look at games whose minimum system requirements are a Macintosh II (the first Mac to support Color QuickDraw).

I believe that Mac System 6.0.7 was the first to feature a Color QuickDraw system extension.

I have a soft spot for this machine:
