I honestly do not know the difference between and a stim toy and I usually use the two terms interchangeably.
My favorite fidget toys is my flippy chain. I use this thing all the time and take it with me everywhere. And I love that it’s discreet and quiet.
What’s your favorite fidget toy, or thing yiu like to fidget/stim with?
Ooh, that flipoy chain looks fun. I’m going to have to get one of those.
My favoritrs are a nice heavy metal 3 prong fidget spinner I got bacj when that craze first started. This bike chain gear sprocket one - not sure how else to describe it, but it’s two gears, one bigger than the other, and a bike chain going around them. It’s neat.
But my real favorite? My absolute love it to death favorite? Some Stimagz. They are little magnet rods and they are infinitely amazing. I do not use them anymore and it honestly took a while to break the habit. Why don’t I use them anymore? I swear I started to develop hand pain. It’s like I was on track to give myself carpel tunnel. My right hand was starting to get stiff and painful and I couldn’t figure out why, and I realized it started happening about a month after I got my Stimagz. I had them in my pocket 24/7 and no matter what, when, or where, I was fidgeting with them. I put them away in a drawer and stop using them, and bam, hand pain cleared up. They were like fidget heroin. I wish I could trust myself around them, but I know I would just get carried away. The safest way for me to use them is to not use them at all.
