Weighted Blankets

My daughter (11) suffers with anxiety that hits pretty hard every now and then. Helps that she is on meds but absolutely kills me when she has bad days, and usually last about two weeks. Heartbreaking to be honest.

My wife had had read about these weighted blankets a couple weeks ago and thought to give one a try. She and our daughter are pretty crafty , so they ended up buying some fleece material and glass beads of some sort and made a blanket themselves. She hasn't "needed" it yet and I hope for her she doesn't for some time, but surely pray that it helps her cope when she does.


Hopefully the blanket you found helps your daughter get the rest she needs, and maybe a little comfort for you as well.
 
There's a lot of physiological and evolutionary science behind these and they seem to really help people. I say if someone you love is suffering, try everything possible to help them. I hope this works for her (and any others' family members who would benefit from it)!
