I know that every child on the spectrum is different but one thing I do know is that most of them stim just in there own way.
It could be spinning, running, tapping the leg, snapping, screaming, whatever it may be, its just their special way of releasing that beautiful energy that us parents wish we could bottle up into a pill and swallow.
I’d work all day long, come home tired and watching that energy explode was just a reminder that its about to be a long night.
So I went online and started looking up whatever I could find to help reduce his energy but in a way that I wouldn’t have to make him feel as though he is being chastised.
