Great information on stimming. And yes, you may be doing it too :)
🌟 What is Stimming?
Self-stimulating actions that are repeated in order to stimulate the senses. It is commonly talked about in neurodivergent individuals (Autism, ADHD, SPD), but in truth- almost everyone stims in some way (pencil tapping, hair twirling, chewing on pens, etc).
Stimming can be:
🖐 Tactile (licking or kissing unusual items, chewing items, rubbing different textures, teeth grinding)
👂 Auditory (putting sound making objects close to ears, repeating sounds)
👁 Visual (looking closely at items or out of side of eyes)
👃 Olfactory (smelling unusual items)
⚖️ Vestibular (jumping, rocking, spinning)
🫂 Proprioceptive (pressure seeking or weighted objects)
🧠 or a combination (hand flapping, finger posturing, verbal stims- often groaning like sounds, humming, tikka tikka tikka, echolalia)

🌟 Why do people stim?
Stimming can help to regulate the body. It can help a person calm down, gain control of their senses, communicate, destress, focus, express emotions, cope to prevent meltdown, decrease anxiety, and more. A person may stim more when overstimulated or feeling strong emotions (both positive and negative)- and sometimes they do it just because it feels good!
Do’s and don’ts:
✅ Think about your own biases when you see a person stimming and accept it as okay
✅ Talk to children about the benefits of stimming to help normalize it
✅ Provide stim toys and give sensory breaks
✅ Redirect stims that involve self-harm (head banging, scratching, etc). If you can figure out the root-cause, and take steps to prevent before it occurs, that is best!
❌ Block non-harmful stims
❌ Say “quiet hands”, “quiet body”
❌ Stare, ask if person is “okay”, or make judgements
