Anyone crush and calm themselves with anything when a hug wasnt available or human touch felt like a open raw wound? I have laid under matresses, piled encyclopedias on myself, mummified myself in blankets and when I was younger had my bro bury me in anything from stuffed animals to dropping 100's of matchbox cars on me. Makes me wonder if a reason why some gain weight is for the calming weight on the body. Just a theory.

Not sure of your weight gain hypothesis. I feel bloated and swollen when I have put a few pounds. I do remember loving to cram myself between my bed and wall and just lie there as a kid. It felt so relaxing despite not really being able to breathe.

Yep I can relate to that, I did similar things in secret when I was a kid. I've always been incredibly ashamed of it though.
