Hi,
Sometimes Weighted Blankets help children with sensory issues. I found this study about how the blankets can lesson anxiety in adults: http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/1.../J004v24n01_05 Exploring the Safety and Therapeutic Effects of Deep Pressure Stimulation Using a Weighted Blanket Quote:
This review of studies is about how people with "sensory defensiveness" spend a great deal of energy compensating. The assessment and treatment of sensory defensiveness in adult mental health: a literature review http://www.ingentaconnect.com/conten...00005/art00005 Quote:
I hide from people, places, projects, (work, the phone, the shower, driving, . . . ) I don't think that pdocs and tdocs are aware of our difficulties with stimuli and how we compensate. M Last edited by Mari; 09-29-2011 at 03:19 PM. |

This is on a much smaller scale, but I love my sleeping bag at home--often sleep in it on my zero-gravity chair in my "middle" room, a bonus room, no windows, closets, just in dead center of condo. I'm on the 2nd of 3 floors. With its door tightly shut, it's as 0-stimuli as I can get.
