A Weighted Blanket for Zi'aja to ease PTSD and ADHD symptoms

Posted Dec 3, 2020
Zi'aja is working very hard on improving her coping skills. She has returned to a face to a face learning environment and that has increased her anxiety and stress. This blanket would be a holistic supplement to assist Zi'aja with falling asleep and staying asleep. She sometimes takes a couple of hours to fall asleep at night. This blanket may assist with her psychiatric care in a more natural way!

Zi'Aja is 18 years old and lives in NJ

Zi is a broad smiling youth that loves adventure and close friends. He enjoys art and journaling too! He has been in foster care for many years and has currently moved into a new foster home where he is pursuing a gender transition! He is very hopeful and excited to be on this new adventure for his life and mental health! Zi is helpful and kind to his foster parent and is just an all-around great person to be around!

Awesome Human grants the wish for Zi'Aja! Thanks Awesome Human.

"Dear Zi'aja, I hope you find this blanket to be comforting and warm. I chose to give this gift because 1) I think your name is pretty and 2) it resonated with me - my 23 year old daughter suffers from severe anxiety and finds that soft things that she can wrap around herself can help her calm down and relax enough to rest. Please try to take things one day at a time and know that someone out there is thinking about you and praying for your success. Martha"
