Stimming

Hello everyone, :) 

So this is something I’ve noticed about myself for a while and only noticed it was something to do with my AS which is I hum twice or I’ll  bite my lip and also I’ll  rub my fist together which I do a lot when I’m on my PS4 so it’s like a comfort? I never mentioned this at my diagnosis a years ago as I didn’t think of it at the time, I just want to know if anyone does a similar thing? I know that younger children do this but I’m 32 so I’m not sure? 

thanks

  • Hi, I pick and bite the skin around my finger nails,  I wring my hands, I  bite my lips and the worst one is I make a grunting/clearing throat sound - I'm 45 and have done this since I was a child.  My parents tried to get me to stop but I never could, now my husband tries to get me to stop but I just can't.  It's a compulsion that I just have to do.  Luckily my children are completely fine with it - I suppose they've never known anything else.

  • Cant be stimming because it is not ten. You keep doing it inside of your head. This is my destiny this makes things true. Its a relief when you get things complete.
