I have been using a weighted blanket for about 6 months. I'm not sure that it helps with any of my symptoms, but it does give you a grounded feeling when in bed. It is so heavy though, that it is very difficult to move and even turn over in bed. I have considered removing it but ultimately decide not to because it does add something to the bed experience.... I'm just not sure what that is, or how to quantify it.

Yes I felt as if someone was holding me down I got the heaviest one just a blanket works for me. Maybe the not so heavy one would have been better.
