Question for the autism community

I want to buy a weight blanket

Where can I buy them and what are the best options?

target, Walmart. specialty stores. sometimes Ollie’s. amazon. etsy. I think fun and function or abilations has some. autism community store. therapy shoppe. not sure about outside the us, I havent searched around yet.

Thanks. I will look at amazon. How does a weight blanket feel and what amount of weight is right?

for me, it feels like a really strong hug. or like a person laying on you. you measure by body weight. the amount of weight of the blanket should basically be half of the amount of pounds you weigh.say, I’m about 259 pounds give or take, so for adequate pressure I would buy a blanket that is 64 pounds but like you can buy more or less depending on how strong you are ( and you WILL need to be strong like me,to lift up super heavy blankets) I think if you’re skinnier it would be advised to start off with uhh… 24 pounds or more. if you’re heavier try 50 pounds. I really like pressure so, I like my weighted stuff super heavy but everyone has different tastes, so experiment first to see what works best for you! hope that helps.

What is it in kilograms. I don’t understand the pound thing. I’m not good at math

it’s okay, I struggle with math as well.

11.34 kg for 25 pounds is what I got off of Google.

it is typically advised to start off with 10% of your body weight! i have a hard time finding a weighted blanket at or over 30 lbs (approx 13 kgs) and when i do, they’re very expensive, so overall it’s probably better to start out with a lower weight to make sure you like it.

Also what are the costs?
