Comfort item

Do you have a comfort item? 

I know they come in like bears, blankets, jewellery and curious if you have something that brings you comfort.

I have a necklace that was my mums and a bracelet, also a blanket, but that makes me feel like a child. 

Got a lot on today - 2 buses to my hospital appointment - and then I've got to find where I need to go and in my opinion hospital are so hard to navigate! 

I have to admit I'm taking my blanket lol. Hopefully it'll make me feel easier.

Look forward to seeing if you have a comfort item :)

  • I hope today goes okay. Genuinely wishing you all the best.

    My current comfort item is the oak ring I made for myself recently. The feel of it is wonderful, as are the grain patterns. I can wear it, so it feels inconspicuous too. I stim with it by twisting it on my finger (it’s incredibly smooth) or by rolling it on my head/face- as I do this, it rotates. Seems odd writing it down that way, but it is what I do and if it were to be understood anywhere, here would be the best place.

    Please take care and take it one step at a time today.
