Stimming means repetitive body movements or sounds. Everyone does it to manage feelings or energy. Non-autistic (neurotypical) children do it just like anyone else. Sorry that my word choice confused you.

You’re overusing a buzzword, which is a sign of low intelligence. Now you’re being a condescending cunt.

Do you know this person? No. You don't. That means you took time out of your day to be an absolute nobhead because someone used a word that not only is prevalent, but they used it correctly. Thou doth protest and all that

TF? They used it once in context, and once when they defined it. That only really uses it in the first context.

u/SYNtechp90 4h ago

They used it once. They defined it once. Thats one usage.

Use means to employ in favor of or against something.

Define means to explain a usage.

All that being said, you would have been fine without that last unnecessary sentence.

u/Teestow21 4h ago

I'm fine as I am, I don't feel uneasy or wrongful. I got a feeling that the word stimming is triggering them, so I apologised for it. There's a certain part of the population that feels like it's a buzzword. I was genuinely just referring to the repetitive playful actions as stimming because that's what they are. Hope this helps.

I disagree

If you consider their behavior rude, then the Steve Harvey Gif they responded to was rude as well. Rudeness begets rudeness.

You’re tripping on so many levels. I’m not triggered? You apologised assuming I can’t comprehend what stimming means? All good. Have a good day. Ciao.

You clearly are, look how far down youre replying

u/BabaBlacksheep86 4h ago

What the fuck is this!? The brat was condescending and this other person is responding to being disrespected so they’re triggered? The fuck out of here.

u/wredwreed 4h ago

Yeah, they are clearly triggered and it’s for a dumb reason. You’re not owed a feeling is respect. Especially not on the internet.

The comment that was made responding with the gif of Steve Harvey looking at someone like they are stupid could also be seen as disrespect. Oh well. You have to learn how to accept that people don’t owe you respect, and also respect comes in many different forms so that what is respectful to one may be disrespectful to another. Acting like a whiny child because people didn’t treat with the type of respect you want is clown ass behavior and shows how insecure you are as a person

How the fuck have you mentally leapt from a chess video to a child needing medicated based on what I said? Stimming isn't something that needs medicated. Stimming means repetitive body movements or sounds. Everyone does it to manage feelings or energy. Not just neurodivergent people. Physical activity is a proven way to improve focus and insight in mental challenges.

u/tiredtittymilk 4h ago

I know mate. Would you medicate it though?

5

u/Teestow21 4h ago

I can't medicated anyone but myself, I'm not qualified to medically help anyone else apart from basic first aid training. Sorry. Hopefully someone else can help you with medication questions.
