Spinning is a form of stimming. Adam doesn’t do it as much as some other autistic kids. They can spin for a long period of time and not feel dizzy at all. It’s amazing just like a ballet dancer doing her spin. But for me, goodness gracious, when Adam took me on a little spin, I wasn’t able to open my eyes for some 5 minutes after that. My son was absolutely fine. He continued stimming shortly after he retired daddy. Let me know if your autistic child spin as well in the comments below. #adamsaut

I thought everyone did this.” Turns out not everyone does. 👀✨ Here are 8 signs of visual stimming that many undiagnosed autistic adults assume are just “normal habits”: 1. Watching light move — reflections on walls, ceiling fans, sun through leaves, headlights sliding across the road. 2. Fixating on patterns — tiles, brick lines, fabric textures, spreadsheets, repeating shapes that feel soothing. 3.
