What are your stims?

Gay 2/1/2021 01:02 am 2955

my stims are:

Singing/ humming

Leg bouncing (idk if that’s my anxiety or not)

Hitting my chest

Picking at my scalp

“Bebebebebebebebebbebe”

“Fhart”

Repeating whatever word I heard recently

Bopping like bop cat

*bop* *click* *bop* *click*

flappy hands

using fidget toys

chewing on things

typing on a laptop or computer

maladaptive daydreaming (this is kinda bad for me because i get my daydreams confused with reality at times)

Violently shaking when I’m upset or sad

Listening to the same song over and over

making the hand where u pu down ur index, middle, and ring finger and i shake it super violently

That’s all of mine! I wanna hear yours

i love to stim with citrus fruits. so much. like juggling and tossing them and patting them and scratching the skin and smelling the oil...
they have such a nice weight and texture ;O; especially grapefruits & clementines
other than that mine are pretty similar to yours happy singing/humming, leg bouncing, chest patting...
i also tend to hold and play with my hands and kinda pretend that somebody else is holding my hand
and i often repeat stuff from funny videos to myself, which can range from repeating one line from a comedy routine
that i thought was hilarious to uh... memorizing the entirety of a YTP-esque podcast edit and reciting it to myself
