Anxiety and Weighted Blankets - April 10th 2016, 01:58 AM

Hey,

I was reading today about how sometimes people with autism find the sensation from weighted blankets and "deep touch pressure" (like squeezing) comforting. It was the first time I'd read about someone else finding this comforting- when I'm anxious, I like to apply weight to my body, like putting something heavy on top of my stomach, or wrapping myself up tight in something so I can feel pressure all over my body. I'm really bad at explaining this Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone else found things like this comforting? With or without anxiety or autism



Take as long as you need.
