Not sure anyone will be able to help on this or not, but I am looking for some treatments for Sensory Deprivation. One of my characters spent 7 years locked in a sensory deprivation tank as a form of torture. The characters who release him want to take him with them because he's too weak to take care of himself. However he reacts poorly to touch, light, sound and the feeling of the blanket they wrap him in is too rough. It took them ten minutes to drag him, on the blanket, 50 yards to a temporary camp. The next day, they HAVE to move on, regardless of his reactions to things, but it just seems like it would be more torture to me, and it might truly be, I don't know... but I was wondering if anyone had ideas on how they could help him.
I've hunted on ask.com, google and wikipedia and I've only found mention of sensory deprivation used as torture. Mostly, they claim its used as a relaxation technique. Where I HAVE found information, on it as a torture, there is no information about what's done to help someone through it. Under SID, also known as Sensory Integration Disorder, I found weighted blankets are used. Any help could be appreciated.
