I'm not diagnosed Autistic, but I have been diagnosed with ADHD. I have the lovely habit of hitting myself when I think of something embarrassing or emotionally overwhelming. I only developed this within the last year, so it's sometimes been scary. It's really amazing to see people talk about this openly because it makes me feel less alone.

one of my tips is, if you have the grab and tear impulse, are at home and can, try to change into thick jeans and a crummy oversized t-shirt you keep on hand when you feel an overwhelm beginning (totes not possible for all or in all cases) because I have ripped SO many ๐ข favorite pants and leggings to shreds in the midst of an episode. it genuinely makes me so sad.
The next tip if you have that grab and tear or the strangle impulse is to get your hands on a hand towel or normal towel and crank that thing like you're trying to wring every last drop of water out. They are made for it, and it has saved so many pants, when it is too late to change
what I do not recommend, if you have that grab and tear impulse, is to undress to save your favorite pants, because in my case it has caused me to claw deep into my shins and thighs and it has caused massive bruising and open wounds I couldn't do anything about except to let heal.
a towel is waaaaay better than your own legs

This is just tips from my personal experience, take what you resonate with and leave the rest. we are all so different.

Not autistic (but I do have adhd) but I used to run with my head pressed against the floor as a teen, and self harm which turned into biting myself as an adult. Thankfully I rarely get into that deep of a state of emotional disregulation, but I love the balls for the head hitting tip and sharing about the biting toys. Having something squish with my teeth when very upset actually sounds like a brilliant idea.

so like a skills emergency kit from DBT!
I noticed that borderliners, adhdlers and autistics have so many things in common.
I have mine in a closed box, I should put them open in a basket like you so its easier to grab! Great choices there, I need this chewllery! Tend to grind my teeth a lot in high stress. ๐ Thanks for sharing, its very motivating. Need to update my skillbox

I have many signs of autism, but, my parents refuse to get me to a doctor or a mental health specialist because 'mental health isn't real and I just made it up' but I have meltdowns where I go non-verbal and I just start to profusely cry, so, this could be very good for me if I actually had austism (not-self diagnosing, too young to take myself to a doctor or mental health specialist)

I love that chewelry thing. It's sad that chewing isn't something there's more non baby things for. If chewing toys and objects etc was normalized for adults it would probably help with stress, and also it's really good for your jaw. strengthens your jaw muscles, shapes your face, etc.
*Thereโs so many people in the replies claiming more working out your jaw doesnโt mean more strong, muscled, defined jaw.
Literally no idea how these fools came to that conclusionโฆ
You are wrong. I exercise my jaw with mewing and jawzercise, the second is basically just chewing an object a lot, and, surprise surprise, the more you work out your jaw muscles, the more defined they look.
Literally no idea how you people can sit there and deny that logic.
People with literally no existant chin and jawline have that because their jaw muscles arenโt used enough.

I appreciate you being open about head hitting, it's something I've only done maybe only five times in my life but it is so terrifying to logically recognize what is happening and want to stop it, but being emotionally unable to and just watching yourself hurt yourself from this weird not quite out of body experience

My wife got me some kinetic sand to help me with my ADHD. I play with that when I have to interact with people. Before I would squeeze her. Not in a sexual way. I would squeeze too hard and hurt her. Which made me upset because I hurt her and didnโt mean to. She understands. I havenโt had issues this bad until coming back from Iraq in 19โ. My guess is I have some stress sprinkled in with it all. Amplifying my ADHD. Or whatever form of neurodivergence I have.

i am also a head hitter when i have my meltdowns. it's overwhelming, at times i get them a lot and there are times where i go very long without not feeling them at all. this is a wonderful idea and it's never too late to embrace your autism! thanks so much for the wonderful ideas and i hope they work wonders for you

It's videos like this that have helped me recognise when i am overloaded/overstimulated/underestimated.
Ive spent so much of my life without a diagnosis that its ingrained in me to just push through when I feel awful and can't work out why.
Now I'm working on recognising the signs, understanding what's happening for me internally, and helping myself โค
