my son does this, I always associate it with pain. if he's in pain or uncomfortable I see his eyes darting. He usually escalates from there.

My daughter hums and chatters to herself...which I believe is her go to stim. For her the hand flapping has only been happening recently as shes becoming more comfortable in herself.

I also used to lightly drag my nails across my tummy while lying down

[TheYeetalorian]

That what I do sometimes when I’m really tired. It’s fun to watch my vision vibrate 🥹

I use to jiggle my eyes but stopped years ago, can’t remember why it maybe that it really upset someone. Something I’ve always done is silently click my fingers together, alternating hands, often quite fast….sometimes each finger up & down like playing an instrument. lol

I have a stim where I crunch the tips of my eyelashes with my finger; but it isn't very good for my eyelashes. But at least I am not pulling them out like I did when I was 11. I learned after a while that I shouldn't do that and I was glad that my eyelashes grew back.

My husband twiddles his thumbs and walks around when he is anxious or frustrated.

AH! I'm glad it works for you (but hurts me to think about LOL) I pull my hair which is NOT socially acceptable-has to do secretively. Publicly can gently rock like someone with adhd

[Catlily]

I don't think I can make my eyes jiggle like that! How do you do it?

My brother has an eye problem that makes his eyes jiggle from side to side (called nystagmus) but he can't control it.

[flourpower]

I do this and making the head thunder stop and start. I don't know what it's technically called. It's where you tense and intense a muscle in the inner ear and a thundery noise happens. Happens a lot when I'm anxious or want the outside world to quieten

[sorcierenblk]

I bite my lips top and bottom and squish them together multiple times. Like I’m chewing on them. Sometimes i randomly clench my butt cheeks side to side…

[SpookyMissLuna]

been doing this FOREVER and thought I was SO COOL as a kid xD
