I'm interested in buying a weighted blanket but would love to read about anyone else's experiences with them!

Hey there... I can't say that this is something I've ever heard of? What exactly is it, and what does it do?... I will have to research it and look it up to find out. Hopefully you will get someone here who perhaps already knows!

I know this may be a very late response to an older post but I just came across it. I have a weighted blanket that is a 15 pound one. As in the link, I think the general rule is for the weight of it to be 5-10% of your body weight. I enjoy sleeping with mine and just having it handy, especially for the times that I am struggling.

I want a weighted blanket too! I borrowed my friends one night it helped with my trauma and emotional pain, a lot! Helped with sleep. Looking for one now…
