I’m thinking of buying one. Does it really make a noticeable difference in your sleep? What are you guys thoughts on weighted blankets?

I’m a big fan of my weighted blanket. It reduces my anxiety, and I get a deeper sleep. I’ve given a couple as Christmas and birthday gifts because I like mine so much.

Are they really hot?

I bought one and tried it but felt like I was suffocating underneath it, so I donated it to an autistic friend who really likes it.
I hate them myself. Im a sexual abuse survivor from a very young age, and they trigger me horribly.
However, I bought my husband a 15 pound one he wanted a few months ago. It turned a chronic insomniac into a deep sleeper. He loves the feeling of security it gives him. Positive game changer for him.

I haven’t tried it yet. Maybe I’ll get one. 
My wife read in an online magazine for women that people with autism are crazy about having weighted blankets and she got me one. I lasted for 10 minutes under it and that was it. I am so sensitive to clothing and I avoid dress shirts where a seam presses against me in the wrong way. Having the weight of the blanket pressing hard against all of me was too much. It went to Goodwill the next day.
They trigger me horrible as a physical abuse survivor, make me feel like im being suffocated

I used to have one, and I love it.
I tend to toss and turn a lot before falling asleep, tje blanket helped me lay still and feel safe
Mine isn’t. I can’t remember if I got one that specifically was more cooling than others.

I have one but don’t use it. It made me freeze in bed.
I don’t sleep with mine because my small dog would crawl under it and I’d be worried about that. I had mine hand made and the beads he used keeps cool. It’s also meant for my weight so it’s perfect. I love it but again I don’t sleep with it
