Favourite stim :)

I love doing a stim where I hunch my shoulders, and clasp my hands then hug my hands to my face. I was recently diagnosed as an adult, and have spent a lot of my life being embarrassed by my unusual mannerisms for some reason, but I honestly feel like that is my favourite stim. What is your favourite stim?

  • Unconsciously, I bounce my legs when sitting and jiggle my feet when lying down. Consciously, I fiddle with small objects, especially mechanical ones that pivot, slide and/or click - ballpoint pens Swiss army penknives etc. I also have a favourite pebble, that is just the right size, shape, weight and texture, which I rub between the palms of my hands, or I squeeze it between the fingers of one hand until it shoots out, and I then catch it with the other hand, and repeat.
