Is this a sensory issue

So in general I am sensory heavy however I’ve noticed some things that feel a bit strange
So instead of a bed sheet I have to sleep on a blanket instead of a bed sheet, sometimes I can only sleep with a blanket if I’m really feeling sensory heavy like at the moment I can’t sleep with a duvet because it makes me shiver the texture and I get upset over it. I’ve also noticed u have to sleep with a blanket on me like a scarf but then I will have my head on the end of it to sleep.
Sorry if that’s weird

At the same time, I hear you saying that these sensory preferences can make you feel like a 'weirdo' sometimes, and that sounds so hard too - almost feeling a bit ashamed or embarrassed for the things your body needs to feel comfy?
