Is scribbling a stim?

Currently on a self diagnosis process, feeling like I might be autistic.

I don't know if stimming is a thing for me, but I'm trying to figure that out.

One thing I've noticed is that I usually scribble at school, and have been doing that as a child too. Could have just been out of boredom but im wondering what you guys think?

Also, when at home I like having something in my hands like a rubber band or a small hair clip to play with. I dont think I do it excessively but I don't really notice how much I do it tbh. I just feel like most times I'd rather have something in my hands than not.
