Honestly I've Been Twirling My Hair Since Before I Had Hair.

Honestly I've been twirling my hair since before I had hair.

Pros, the heat and constant twirling gives me perfect curls sometimes. Cons, my hair is always disgusting and I still rip out my knots sometimes lol

Growing up without stim toys be like

- the leg bounce

- sleeves

- bottles of liquid were strangely fascinating

- something heavy on the end of some string

- Doodling ALL the time so now you’re kind of accidentally good at art

- MAGNETS

- jewellery. Especially those weird earrings where they’re a ball covered in gel spikes.

- Covering your hands in glue and peeling it off

- Tapping

- Twirling your hair around your finger until it accidentally turns into a huge knot

- gum

- Stroking pets because it feels good for you not just them

- Any blu tac you found around the house or school would stay with you for many weeks

- Biting the inside of your cheek, fingers, nails

- “we will be using clay in art today” was a god send

- bubble baths

- people think you’re faking needing stim toys now because you’ve gone so long without them and they didn’t notice your little ‘quirks’ before
