Attention: GayBlade is fricking back

it is super neurodivergent

Neurodivergent spinning is a self-stimulatory behavior, or stim for short. It helps children on the spectrum self-regulate.

Children who spin are stimulating their vestibular system. This sensory system helps with our sense of balance, coordination, movement, and spatial orientation. The vestibular system also comprises the inner ear and the portions of the brain that process sensory information related to gravity and motion.

Doctors believe that spinning is related to a sensory processing disorder. Neurodivergent children who regularly spin crave sensory stimulation or are actively trying to avoid sensory overload and are self-soothing.
