Good that it is working for you.

Turn the switch off in your brain-no talking!

I just recently received a 15 pound one and it works wonders. I use it the most at night and I am sleeping in five minutes. Usually my mind races all night long, but when I use a weighted blanket, I fall asleep faster. Your body may be adjusting to it, and that could also be why your experiencing problems.

I hope that sleeping gets better, best wishes on your journey to get more sleep at night!

i received one for Xmas from my best friend but havent tried it yet. i think i will now! i only sleep 2 hrs max a night. hugs.

My sleep has been so erratic lately, so I thought this would help. I’ve been trying to take valerian root as well, which I didn’t take last night.

I bought one but it was too heavy for me. Just not for me I guess. I have some pretty heavy comforters piled up and a down pillow and have been sleeping pretty well.

I have a couple of weighted blankets. When I an really bad I use the blankets to help me calm down along with deep breathing and grounding. I also hav a weighted shoulder wrap which helps some.

I feel the weighted blanket is the best thing ive ever bought its helped me alot.

I have one too and it really helps me.

The weighted blanket is still awkward - I actually threw it off and used a regular quilt last night. It felt like the weight was off, but I checked today and the blanket is secure in it’s duvet cover. I’ll try again tonight.

Hello, eab88! I've used a weighted blanket before and I love it. I use it for nights I feel anxious because if not I toss and turn so much that not only do I wake my partner up, but I wake up my pups, too. The weight of the blanket may also help promote melatonin production which is the hormone that promotes sleep. It mimics a hug which is always nice. If not, you can also listen to a Podcast called "Nothing much happens; bedtime stories to help you sleep" that helps me sometimes also. It just depends on what works for you, but keep trying. Sleep is so important! Good luck :)

I have a 15# and I like it. I was using it yesterday with an essential oil diffuser for anxiety.

I love mine--but have to sleep at the edge of it--so my foot can escape,..otherwise I feel too trapped.

most of the time my cat is sleeping on it....lol

I haven’t been using the blanket and I’ve been sleeping decently without it. I may just have to keep it near and use it when I’m super anxious before bed.

There are a number of reasons why you might consider purchasing your first weighted blanket. Most of them come down to the fact that the human body begins to produce serotonin when it is put under gentle pressure. Serotonin plays a very important role in our health and well-being, and is also responsible for improving the quality of sleep. In addition to increasing serotonin production, weighted blankets often have a calming effect on people on the autistic spectrum. If someone you love has been diagnosed with autism or Asperger's syndrome, you can try using a weighted blanket for them to help them cope with the anxiety and sensory processing disorders that often accompany these diseases.
