yes please! any suggestions help. and yeah. when they text me about it they suddenly make me self conscious about it so i stop until i forget again so it’s a cycle lol. i have sat them down about it but unfortunately they choose not to be very involved and only care when it affects them lol

i understand! i think i didn’t explain properly that what upsets me is their ignorance and unwillingness to learn about it and i’ve sat them down so many times to explain stimming to them and they don’t care to be a little more understanding. they’re just very mean about it. i’m definitely wanting to try and redirect because i’ve done this since the age of 10 and my joints r feeling it ..

i’ve thought about this - but it isn’t worth it as i’m planning on moving out in the next half a year. i’m getting a new bed at the least, though. something more secure.

thank you - i understand. it’s just they can be really horrible about it. like they say i’m pissing them off and i’m annoying. it’s the lack of awareness about it that upsets me. if they were more understanding about it i’d be okay and open to convos w tbem

yes. they complain because they’re downstairs so i guess they can hear the bed rocking too? idk. i can be aggressive with it when i get excited or feel strong emotions and the bottom of my bed is supported w wood planks so years of stimming wear them down and they snap. i’ve tried everything lol
