For as long as I can remember, I have had a pillow that I hold dear. When I was a child, it was a blanket. But, as I grew older, and my parents forced me to part with it, I have found pillows as a great substitute. I smell the pillow when I'm simply relaxing on the couch. But, I also fiddle with the material of the pillow and, rendering fabrics loose, I begin to tear the pillow apart; slowly but surely. I sleep with the pillow as well. And do not allow for it to be washed. This is, probably, the second or third pillow I have destroyed. So, is this normal.. ?

    @ Everyone: Thank you for the comments. My parents are quite fed up with my behaviour. But, I just can't seem to stop. I have thrown out my pillows in the past, and promised that I would not partake in the habit again.. However, when I get a stomach ache, I like to pick up a pillow and rock with it. Then, it starts ALL over again.

    I do the same since I was little but I did not tear it down, I liked it too much to do that.

    yes...normal....make sure to wash your pillowcases on a regular basis, then every pillow will wear down and it will eventually have to be replaced and it will be nice and fluffy again....there are people that take favorite pillows and sheets and blankets with them to hotels, etc., so whatever gives you comfort and you do at home is perfectly fine...
