Heavy

Reading that, you'll probably also like those vests you can tighten to calm down and secure? I know some people like to lie in confined spaces.

I actually am the opposite. I cannot stand heavy materials or clothes, but I always need some sort of pressure from a blanket to be able to sleep.

haven't seen the vests you mentioned but i like those elastaine tops that really tight fit i want one of those heavy weighted blankets but they're really expensive this is a pic of my chain i wear

Wow! How heavy is that one?

Here is an example (google 'autism vest' and you'll get many results):

'Squeeze wear' might also interest you if you haven't discovered that one already.

i can't pick 1 favourite because they all have good songs in .. if i were a rich man, tonight tonight, the hills are alive etc i like to sing along to lol

Some really good songs in these musicals. My children banned me from singing along with Oklahoma!

hmmm tough one that i like fiddler on the roof, the king and i, westside story and  sound of music those are probably my favourites

Have you got a favourite musical?

My partner doesn't like Julie Andrews, but that relates to her meeting her at school.  Julie Andrews + precocious ASD small girl != happy.  Funnily she seems to like the films she was in though - go figure...

it looks good D i c k van d y k e doing a spot julie andrews refused i love musicals

Yes, can't wait to see how they handle the new MP - not a Julie Andrews fan, forced to watch Sound of Music too often as a child, which I didn't enjoy. 

yeah i loved to be tucked in tight in bed so as i couldn't move when i was a nipper i really want one of those 25kg blankets but they're so expensive like £160

made me laugh lol imagining it kicking off jn stately home ha ha

It seems to be a known thing with people in the spectrum. I came across the clothes and heavy things last year when I looked up why swaddling was so comforting to babies (other  than ours because ahe was like Houdini...).

There are also special heavy things made for people on the spectrum.
