I think it’s soothing for a lot of the rest of us but we either don’t know it at first or are too stubborn to admit it. I noticed when I got these thick kinda heavy hoodies. I love wearing em, but only works when it’s cold enough to not feel hot in em. I need to get a weighted blanket…
I think that’s generally true. As with most brain things, autism is mostly just normal things except amplified to the point where it’s a problemtm. It’s why there’s so many “sensory” toys out there as well. Fidget cubes mostly started as an ADHD thing and now everyone has em.

Definitely get a weighted blanket.
Only minus to weighted blankets is that after getting used to it, it’s even harder to get a good nights sleep in a hotel or especially a tent.
