Tell me more of this magic!

The link I posted upthread has a lot of relevant reading, but the short of it is that weighted blankets have been proven to have a calming effect and have been used in therapy for people with autism, insomnia, anxiety disorders, and PTSD for quite some time now.

They're not an option for everyone (nothing is really when it comes to therapy) but they're extremely useful for some people. So for the people unconsciously using extra blankets to "self medicate" this way, getting themselves a nice therapy blanket probably isn't a wasted expense.

I feel like this is something missing in my life.

I don't know how much of an option it is for you, but they can range from the slightly expensive to the very expensive to purchase one for yourself. If you have a therapist who uses them in your area I might suggest going in specifically to just test it out and see how you feel before committing to a purchase.

Well, it might be long term plan thing. I don't strictly need it, but it sounds really nice.

From what I've been told they are very nice. A few people with PTSD that I regularly talk to find that it's the only thing that calms them down.
