So, I bought this weighted blanket with palpable skepticism as pretty much everything else I tried to help me get more sleep in general, but also more deep sleep. As a small digression, I have not slept a full night in excess of 25 years, no MATTER what I tried, did, supplements/meds I took, things I eliminated, purchasing odd gadgets that supported sleep, purchasing emf blocking devices and light-blocking shade, etc. The list goes on- truly! I would awake no less than 10-12 times per night, and sometimes would not sleep for a few days before extreme exhaustion set in, then I'd get a whopping 4 hours and think I had won the lottery! I walked around like a zombie, and cannot truly explain how I even functioned at work or with my family. I stopped doing things as a means to make sure I get the sleep routine down pat, which incidentally never happened.Anyhow, in the summer of 2021, I bought this weighted blanket and the duvet cover, and set it aside for a long while because I didn't want to get excited again for another "cure-all antidote for sleep issues". When I finally opened it to use it, it took me months to adjust to it. It certainly was not an easy transition. But slowly I noticed something, I was indeed waking up less. That is a success in my book! Here I am, almost 2 years out from the purchase, and I cannot sleep without this blanket. I am Linus from the Peanuts Gang with a weighted blanket, and it comes with me everywhere. No, did it cure me of sleep problems- no! I still had to tweak a few things else, but this blanket MADE A HUGE impact on my sleep! Now, I still wake up at 11 pm and 3:45 am (and get back to sleep relatively quickly, all things considered). And it still takes me a bit to shake out the "groggies", but this is a remarkable improvement for me! I love this blanket and am half-tempted to purchase another, but they are a bit pricey.I love the cooling in the summer, and the duvet helps with putting extra layers on in the winter for warmth! Without the duvet, other covers slip and slide all night long. I definitely recommend this blanket, but please know, it may not be the only thing you need to put into your sleep repertoire.
