Heute habe ich ganz viele in Wasser eingeweichte Wasserperlen in den größten Topf gekippt und dann mit den Händen drin rumgeknetet, was für ein geiles Gefühl.
Ich glaube, das werde ich mit einem großen Wasserbecken für die Füße wiederholen. Erstens herrlich kühl, zweites sehr schönes Stimming.
Ich habe mir einen Kühlschal, eine Schlafmaske und eine Art Häubchen für unter den Buff genäht und mit Wasserperlen gefüllt. Das ist sooo angenehm, weil es nur langsam verdunstet.

Stimming as Self-Knowledge: Listening to Your Body
Stimming is often misunderstood as a behavior to be managed, but for many neurodivergent people it functions as a form of self-knowledge — a direct channel between the nervous system and conscious awareness. This article explores stimming as a body-based language, examining what different self-stimulatory behaviors communicate about sensory load, emotional state, and regulation needs. Rather than treating stimming as a problem to be corrected, the piece invites readers to reframe it as meaningful information worth listening to, and considers what becomes possible when we stop masking our bodys signals and start interpreting them instead.https://dreamspacestudio.net/stimming-as-self-knowledge-listening-to-your-body/

The stim/tic post I did earlier became an internet rabbit hole I fell down. Which became an overly long blog post.
The answer to "is this a stim or a tic?" seems to be "it's complicated." Which is both validating and annoying.
Post also includes: a list of my greatest vocal hits, MrsVark finding my weird noises comforting, and the understanding that "more symptoms" may actually just be "less masking."

Als Zahlenmensch (wenn auch nicht im buchalterischen Sinn) freu ich mich immer über Zahlenpuzzles.
Nicht zu schwer, sprich im Kopf lösbar, eher meditativ, aber konzentrationsfördernd, stimulierend und zugleich beruhigend sollen sie sein.
Wie das hier, das ich dieser Tage entdeckt habe:

Ich war heute Nachmittag mit einer lieben Kollegin in der Stadt zum Kaffeetrinken verabredet. Wirklich keine große Sache, nur ein bisschen Klönen, Updaten, Austausch in netter Umgebung.
Nach knapp eineinhalb Stunden haben wir uns verabschiedet, ich habe noch ein paar Sachen eingekauft - und habe es nur noch mit allergrößter Mühe nach Hause geschafft.
Und zuhause ging erstmal gar nichts mehr.🧵 1/3

Vor fast zwei Jahren habe ich meine Diagnose „Asperger-Autistin“ bekommen. Das hat mir eine Menge Fragen beantwortet, mit denen ich mein Leben lang gerungen habe.
Ich gehe daher mit dem Thema Autismus und meiner Diagnose sehr offen um.
Das führt allerdings, gerade bei Menschen, die mich nicht gut kennen, immer mal wieder zu Reaktionen wie „Das sieht man dir aber nicht an.“ oder „Wir sind […]

Okay, the Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS Throttle doesn't seem to work like I want with my combination of Mech Game and Linux...
...but it *does* make a stupidly expensive busybox, so really, why am I returning it? I could click these switches all day!

Busy music on purpose to give the feeling in my skin and bones as the stimulation rises
The 5 Levels of Neurodivergent Overstimulation
The "Background Hum" (Irritability):
• The Vibe: You're fine, but you're not fine.
• The Trigger: A light is too bright, or there are two different sources of audio playing (e.g., the TV is on and someone is playing a TikTok out loud).
• The Symptom: You start getting "short" with people for no reason.
The "Statistically Impossible" noise (Focus Loss):
• The Vibe: Your brain stops processing
• The Trigger: Someone is tapping a pen or whispering while you're trying to read.
• The Symptom: You have to read the same sentence 10 times because the "noise" is taking up all the RAM in your brain.
"T-Rex Arms" & Stimming
(The Shutdown):
• The Vibe: You stop moving "normally."
• The Trigger: Too many people asking you questions at once.
• The Symptom: Your hands go into "raptor" position, you start rocking, or you go completely silent because speaking feels like it requires altogether too
much energy.The "Texture Trauma" (Physical Discomfort):
• The Vibe: Your skin feels "too tight."
• The Trigger: You suddenly become aware of your waistband, your hair touching your neck, or your socks being slightly damp/twisted.
• The Symptom: You have to change your clothes immediately or you will lose your mind.
The "Total System Error" (The Meltdown/ Burnout):
• The Vibe: The world needs to end for 20 minutes.
• The Trigger: One final, tiny thing like dropping a fork or a door slamming.
The Symptom: You need a dark room, noise- canceling headphones, and zero human contact for the next 3 to 5 business days.

Schönste Momente mit neurodivergenten Kindern:
Wir haben die FamilienBettMatratze im Wohnzimmer auf den Boden geworfen, weil wir im Schlafzimmer gestrichen haben.
Beim allabendlichen Vorlesen aufm Sofa (sonst halt im Bett) rutscht, dreht, wackelt und zappelt das Kind viel doller als sonst aufm Schoß hin&her und fummelt mir am Ohr rum (dieses stimming an meinem Ohr macht das Kind seit es 0 ist. Besonders nervig ist das nachts. Lass dir mal von einer Person beim Einschlafen (oder beim bereitsSchlafen) die Ohren durchkneten - 3 Stunden nonstop) Die Bilder im Selbstlesebuch hat es schon (wie immer) längst mehrmals vorgeblättert und garantiert auch schon hier&da was gelesen. Also nehme ich mir während des Vorlesens bereits vor, das Kind nochmal auf Klo zu schicken (wenns Pipi muss, zappelt es natürlich mehr) und versuche es irgendwie mit meinem Körper zu beschweren bzw. einzugrenzen, ohne mich zu sehr zu verlesen.
Nach 2 Kapiteln ende ich wie immer mit "und das lesen wir an einem anderen Tag".Das Kind schaut mich seelig an und sagt "ich hab nur das eine Ohr geknetet, auf dem du gleich liegst. Das andere ist jetzt noch schön kalt geblieben zum Einschlafen" und kriecht total müde unter die Gewichtsdecke zur Wärmflasche. Ich fass' mir beide Ohren an, schaue aufs Nachtlager, überlege, in welcher Position ich schlafen werde und frag mich, warum ich mal wieder nicht gleich verstanden habe, was da los war.

Ich bin scheinbar echt ein bisschen unbedarft, aber ich wusste bis eben nicht, dass es Kau-Schmuck gibt, für Kinder wie für Erwachsene.
Und jetzt will ich das haben.
Ich hab ja schon diverse Handbeschäftigungsspielzeuge da, aber beißen können wäre glaub ich echt ziemlich nice.
Gibt's hier Menschen, die da was empfehlen können? Also schon allein weil ich kein Zeug will, bei dem ich Gummi oä schmecke.

Bought a few things the other day including a few DVDs of Griffin’s films, an icepack held in a kind of belt (of course it’s too small, whoops). That and the squishy pastel pink and blue hedgehogs need to go back cos I didn’t realise they flash a red light as well. Nope. They’re #FidgetToys for #stimming btw, not random cuteness.
I also bought four pots of #playdoh I thought would be nice to squish, and yaas, they are.

Kids, puppies, kitten, calves, foals - all animals that live with humans should at a young age experience stimming, meltdowns, different gaits, mobility devices and such as normal parts of society. Which. They. Are.

That mindless touching… 💫
As followers of this blog site can’t have missed, a little over 6 weeks ago, I lost my furry soulmate… 💔 It was during a week that already had started with pain and trauma, and apparently, the week wanted to end in tears… 😭
With the help of many lovely and caring people, I was able to have Arwen cremated privately, so the ashes were/are purely hers. I have a beautiful urn for her, and they saved some ashes separately for a pendant, that I got the week later. Since then, a tiny bit of Arwen has been with me, and it helps, but not enough… 😢

✨ Wiggle, Tap, Relax! Let's Talk Stimming! ✨2of2
Why is stimming helpful?
* ➡️ Helps you focus: Gives your hands something to do so your brain can pay attention
* 🧘 Brings calm: Can soothe your body and mind when you feel stressed or overwhelmed
* 🤸 Lets out energy: A quiet way to move when you feel restless or fidgety
* 🧘♀️ Keeps you in the moment: Helps you pay attention to what's happening right now instead of worrying
* 😊 Feels good! Sometimes the way something feels or moves just makes us feel a little bit better
Lots of places like Live Educate Transform Society (LET'S) are starting to offer cool things to help with #stimming like squishy balls, textured stickers, acupressure rings, and things you can spin. It's all about finding what helps YOU feel good.
What's your favourite way to wiggle, tap, or relax? Share in the comments below! 👇

What Is Stimming?
Stimming is a way to bring order to our nervous system.
Rory MacLeod at FlickrThe explanation I’m going to give you here is that of a layman trying to understand himself. I am not a psychologist, or a psychiatrist. I don’t know that this is a generalizable explanation even. Maybe it holds only for some neurodivergent folks but not others? I have no idea.
Neurodivergent folks talk about being emotionally dysregulated. This dysregulation can manifest in multiple ways. The dysregulated individual may experience intense negative emotions, mood swings, or even difficulty identifying emotions, etc. However, what happens in the brain of a dysregulated person is not entirely clear to me.
What if what happens internally in the brain is some sort of electrical mess? I won’t call it an electrical storm. I don’t think it is as bad as a storm. The electrical storm phenomenon is associated with epilepsy and seizures. So it is not a storm, but it is, for a lack of a more descriptive word, an electrical mess. This mess prevents the electrical currents from going where they should go in an ordered manner.
One of the ways a neurodivergent person can handle emotional dysregulation is to stim. A stim is some sort of stimulation of the nervous system. Flapping your hands can be stimming. Petting an animal can be stimming. Even merely listening to music can be stimming too. Now, stims usually have a rhythm to them. To take the examples already given, flapping your hands has a rhythm. Petting an animal has a rhythm. Listening to music definitely has a rhythm too.
I think the rhythm of the stim acts as some sort of force that regiments the electrical mess that is happening in the brain. I don’t think this is a perfect analogy, but the mess is akin to a non-Newtonian fluid flowing aimlessly. Then the rhythm of the stim are like vibrations that regiment the fluid into some sort of functional pattern.
I can’t find a better explanation for my fondness for music. I have it playing any chance I get. When I was younger, I studied with music playing on my boombox, and I tapped the desk to its rhythm. Nowadays, I have music playing all day long in my apartment. I even have it playing when I go on my solitary walks, or when I drive. It keeps the electrical currents in my brain functional.
As I said, the analogy is not perfect. The non-Newtonian fluid typically has no function. If you need to see a non-Newtonian fluid in action, you should watch the following video. (Regular readers will recognize it from my article about the self.)

Okay, Obsession by Joywave came onto YouTube twice today, and twice I had to drop what I was doing and stim to the bloody music.
Well played, Joywave! Well played.
You could say that this song is my new *obsession*. 😉
