Can you?
I'm in need of a weighted blanket.
I recently discovered that I have what's called Sensory Processing Disorder, (read my submission 'A day in my skin' for more information) and it's recommended that I get a weighted blanket to help calm me down during overloading situations. It will also help calm my nervous system down to where I can function at a relatively normal level without getting overloaded and having a meltdown.
Having a weighted blanket should also be able to help give me a good night's sleep, which is something I have been missing out on for a long time. At night, it provides enough weight and pressure to help calm me down and get me to be able to relax and rest.
I've been wanting one for a little while, did my research, asked around, and did some price shopping. I've found the best place to get one, and I found the one that I want.
Problem? It's about $130. *sigh* That's including shipping though.
UPDATE: I now have $85. The blanket is 95 dollars alone, then 15 dollars shipping (Making it 110) then another 15 for rush charge (because I don't want to wait 2 months for it to come in. ;.; ), and then tax. Im' not sure how much tax will be. Big thanks to those who have helped- You know who you are. <3
To try and come up with the rest of the money for this, I'm going to be doing commissions. Sketches, without the shading, will be $3. Shading will be $6 since it takes twice the amount of time and effort.
They'll be drawn in my sketchbook, scanned in, optimized a bit in photoshop so they aren't blurry, and posted. I can send the original if you want, but that'd require me folding the paper up - Which isn't ideal when pencil shading is involved.
Please, lend me a hand here. I've lent my life to helping others, never expecting anything in return. I've never taken care of myself the way that I need to, and so I'm finally taking a step in the right direction.
My goal is this: http://saltoftheearthweightedgear.c.....ges/PR001J.jpg
15 lbs of weight evenly distributed amongst a blanket that will help me a ton.
Send me a note or comment here if you'd like a sketch or shaded commission :) I'd greatly appreciate it. <3
