    Squishies!

    I collect squishies and they're amazing. I use them as a stim toy and fidget toy. They're basically like a stress ball, but softer and sometimes scented! How I can describe what it feels like to squish a squishy, is it is like squishing a marshmellow. Without the stickiness. You can get...

    Cube Spinner?!

    Hey everyone, long time no see. Sorry for the long absence. I just found out that there is such thing as a Cube Spinner! Honestly they look cooler than the Fidget spinners. Does anyone have one? Have you heard of these? I'm thinking of getting one.

    Fidget Toys in Stores

    So I was out shopping yesterday and it was so crazy. I saw a huuuge table of the fidget toys, it as like 9' round table with at least a few inches high wall around it to to hold items.

    Fidget Cube

    Has anyone tried a Fidget Cube and does it work pretty well? I've been thinking of getting one, as I think it would be a good thing to fidget with. It could probably be even used for stimming too. Fidget Cube A video showing a fake one vs the real one. The video above ^ shows the features.

    Fidgets/Coping Mechanisms

    Hi, When I get anxious or hyper focused, I bite my nails/inside of my mouth. Both are unsightly and biting my lip can cause cancer. I desperately want to stop. Does anyone have any insights/recommended fidgets? I'm on a budget here and would like it to be discreet though as I go to a mainstream...

    Getting defensive/embarrassed when asked about stim toys?

    Is it normal to get defensive when someone asks you about the stim toys you use? Not just when they're being disparaging and condescending about it, but also when they're just genuinely curious? I tend to get this way mostly when people ask me about the chewable silicone pendants I wear...my...
