I made myself a little weighted lap blanket, and I think it's wonderful, but I don't sleep with it. As far as I know, they're not really made to be slept with. But when it's cool enough, I do have a heavy throw blanket I put on top of me. I find the pressure soothing, but it really depends on the individual.


I'd suggest testing how you feel about weighted blankets by piling a bunch of blankets and pillows on top of yourself. If the pressure calms you down, a weighted blanket might help you.
