        I used to take prescribed melatonin supplements and getting a weighted blanket to make myself feel all snuggly and cozy I was out like a light, like falling asleep even faster. I got off the melatonin cus I was able to fall asleep with the blanket and now I have one less med im the carefully balanced system that is my meds in my body

        Whether it was placebo or conveniently timed of not needing meds or actually working I love my blanket

      One friend said that he would occasionally forget it’s weighted when trying to move it, then completely wrench his arm out as he attempts to make the bed

        I find it weird in that I barely notice the weight when using it, but it somehow magically gets heavier whenever I have to move it by hand / make the bed / etc.
