Can someone explain to me what constitutes something as stimming or a repetitive behavior? I understand the stereotypical hand flapping, verbalizations etc. But I’m curious about the more nuanced forms that higher functioning individuals might engage in including durations/frequency. Please don’t judge me for my “stims”. I frequently will rub my fingers where my nose meets my face and smell my fingers. I do this repeatedly and I’m not sure why. My wife hates it lol. I also love running my sheet through my fingers when I’m in bed. I love the feeling of it when it’s cold. I’ll do this for sometimes 20 minutes at a time. I’m assuming these would be considered self stimulatory behaviors. I am diagnosed by the way but I do question my diagnosis.
