Does anyone else copy other peoples stims? Sometimes I see other neurodivergents stimming and will then copy that stim. For example there is an autistic kid in my class who sorta taps his fingers together as a stim. Today when I was at the shops and was overwhelmed I noticed I was tapping my fingers together. It’s like I was mimicking or masking off of this boy but he was neurodivergent so it was actually not harmful or tiring at all and it stopped me from biting the skin off my fingers. I notice situations like this all the time and it’s the cutest thing ever.
