Episode Details

In this eye-opening episode, we go beyond the basics of stimming and explore a lesser-known but just as important type: vocal stimming. While many people associate stimming in autism and ADHD with physical actions like rocking, hand-flapping, or leg bouncing, there’s another side to it—repetitive vocal behaviors like humming, echolalia, or repeating certain words or sounds.

We break down what self-stimulatory behavior (stimming) is, why it happens, and how both physical and vocal stimming serve as vital coping tools for neurodivergent individuals—especially those with autism and ADHD dual diagnosis. Whether it's calming anxiety or expressing joy, stimming is a valid and important part of many autistic lives.

🎯 In this episode, you’ll learn:

• What stimming really means and why it’s not “just a habit”

• The difference between voluntary and involuntary stimming

• What vocal stimming looks and sounds like

• Why recognizing and embracing stimming is part of autism acceptance

• Tools that support healthy stimming (like the ONO Roller + Audio Stim Pack!)
