Can't live without my blanket!

So I've recently noticed how attached I have become to my blankets around the house. Whenever I sit down I must have a blanket on me, even if I'm hot. Does anybody have something like this that they do? I feel uncomfortable without one.

i can’t sleep comfortably without a blanket, no matter how absolutely hot i am. sheets don’t work, they’re too light. weighted blankets don’t work either, because they’re too heavy. i have a specific weight and thickness of blanket that i require to sleep well.

i do this. but it’s hard to do the things i need to do while i’m surrounded in blanket, so i keep the house cold and wear sweatshirts that feel like blankets now when i need to do things. but rn i am wrapped in a blanket. :)

Yes! I rarely ever wash it because that's a couple hours I need to be away from it

i feel this with a lot of things. whenever im laying down, i need a blanket, and i like to wear long sleeves and hoods, but now summer is coming around where i live. i think it's a sensory thing but i don't know for sure. i also have a stuffed animal that i will break down and cry if i lose because i've had it for over a decade. i can't stand being away from my phone because to me, that is my way of communicating with people there are many things i need-
