💙❤️🧡💛💚💖💝 #ILoveSomeoneWithAutism👊🏾❤️ . Repost from @spectacokids • WE ARE ALL DIFFERENT 🙌 There is often nothing about how people with ASD look that sets them apart from other people. They may behave, communicate, interact, and learn in ways that are different from most other people. The abilities of people with ASD can vary significantly and that is why it is so important to educate others about Autism 🙌🤗 . . . . #educationispower #autismknowledge #learnaboutautism #specialneeds #autism #autismawareness #slp #appliedbehavioranalysis #psychology #aba #behaviormanagement #behaviortherapy #ASD #socialandemotionallearning #spectacokids #autismrocks #autismlife #distancelearning #neurodiversity #parenting101 #teletherapy #speechtherapy #autismacceptance #autismlove #mentalhealth https://www.instagram.com/p/CRWyIHslqvh/?utm_medium=tumblr

Stimming

Self-stimulatory behaviors – or stimming – is common in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). It usually won’t harm your child, but it’s normal to worry about how stimming affects your child’s learning and socialising. Skill development, environment changes and behaviour strategies can help.

Self-stimulatory behaviour – or stimming – is repetitive or unusual body movement or noises.

There are many different examples of stimming and we even do it without noticing. For example, some children suck their thumbs or twirl their hair for comfort. You might pace up and down if you’re anxious, or fiddle with a pen in a boring meeting. (In my case, I bite my bottom lip.)

Children with ASD use stimming to manipulate their environment to produce stimulation, or because they have trouble with imagination and creativity and can’t think of other things to do, such as pretend play.

Examples of stimming include:

hand and finger mannerisms, like finger-flicking and hand-flapping***

rocking the body back and forth while sitting or standing***

posturing – holding hands or fingers out at an angle or arching the back while sitting

visual stimulation – looking at something sideways, watching an object spin or fluttering fingers near the eyes

repetitive behaviour like opening and closing doors or flicking switches

chewing or mouthing objects

listening to the same song or noise over and over.***

***-Stimming Jayden normally does.

Stimming isn’t necessarily a bad thing, as long as it doesn’t hurt your child. But some stimming can be ‘self-injurious’ – for example, severe hand-biting.

Stimming can also affect your child’s attention to the outside world, which in turn can affect her ability to learn and communicate with others. For example, if your child is flicking her fingers near her eyes, she might not be playing with toys so much and not developing her play skills. When she’s older, if she’s absorbed in watching her hands in front of her eyes in the classroom, she’s not engaged with her schoolwork. If she’s pacing around the fence in the playground, she’s missing valuable social opportunities.

Researchers think there might be several reasons for stimming. Stimming might happen because children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are:

oversensitive to the world around them – in this case, stimming can calm them down because it lets them focus on just one thing and takes away some of the sensory overload***

undersensitive to their surroundings – in this case, stimming such as hand-flapping or finger-flicking can stimulate their ‘underactive’ senses

anxious – stimming might help reduce anxiety by calming them. This might be by focusing their attention on the behaviour or by producing a change in their body that calms them.

excited – some children with ASD might flap their hands when they’re excited. Typically developing children stim too, such as when a child jumps up and down in excitement. But children with ASD will behave in this way for longer, or might combine several behaviours at once, such as flapping hands, squealing and jumping up and down.********

Definitely on the last one, Jayden typically does this the most when he’s super excited! But it’s okay because I won’t change that for the world!
