a thread of bts members stimming, arranged by member
im making this bc stimming gets such a bad rep from being associated w/ disabilities, when in fact ๐˜ฆ๐˜ท๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜บ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฆ stims. its a repetitive motion to calm oneself, and as such can be a form of stress relief when nothing else is available. and bts certainly needs stress relief so!
im not saying anything about anyone's mental health or potential conditions. im saying bts, like all of us, get stressed sometimes and there shouldnt be such a stigma around stimming to relieve stress. esp when so many of yall think its cute on certain people but not others

taehyung-playing w/ JKs ear https://twitter.com/vkookloop/status/1003160338211143680?s=20
taehyung-playing w/ JKs ear (you can find more examples of this, he does it pretty often) https://twitter.com/pipertaetae/status/935606362192703490?s=20
taehyung-wearing rings for pressure (or maybe to play with)
they all wear rings, so this could be something they all do https://twitter.com/yawi03/status/1079279110025826309?s=20
taehyung + yoongi-wearing/playing with rings https://twitter.com/zia_taekook/status/965083119358435330?s=20
yoongi-biting nails/skin
tw for self harm for biting/tearing his skin. i wont include anything graphic here but u can find pics of how bad his fingers get ๐Ÿ™ https://twitter.com/247jimin/status/936191553332236288?s=20
yoongi-biting his nails/skin
again tw for self harm, esp if you look up other photos https://twitter.com/sugaupdates/status/779501441836810240?s=20
yoongi-screaming
including this bc oral stims are real are people like to brush them under the rug bc theyre one of the less socially acceptable stims. obv bts screams all the time but yoongi's v quiet, i feel like he only does this when hes overstim'd & needs to let off energy
actual vid for yoongi- https://twitter.com/vminluvclub/status/1080221313430679555?s=20
yoongi-scrunching his nose https://twitter.com/yoongispuppy/status/994498685588434945?s=20
hoseok-having his hair played with https://twitter.com/ddaengit/status/962493623915999233?s=20
hoseok/all of them-fidget spinner
in another interview namjoon said jhope/they all carry it around bc it brings "inner peace". for anyone who doesnt know this could be a visual or a tactile stim, with how it feels when it spins on your finger https://twitter.com/btsdoingthing/status/998195594731536390?s=20
all of bts (im assuming, but JK, JH, and JM use it in the vid. RM seems to have used it before too)
thats it! thanks for coming to my ted talk that i spent way too much time on. if u want to discuss/have questions, my DMs are open โœŒ๏ธ
im gonna keep adding to this thread bc this is the content i like
yoongi - yelling/cupping his ears repeatedly https://twitter.com/jinspasta/status/1100865140877152257?s=20
side note this is like whoa! to me bc im a teacher of kids with autism and my kids do this like. all the time. its very stimulating in an auditory sense, i guess would be the best way to describe it?
jin (first one for jin, yay!) - shaking his head when hes tryin to get words out

https://twitter.com/jungkookreally/status/1100326796543680513?s=20
jin - more shaking his head

https://twitter.com/jungkookreally/status/1100327572854829057
jin - more shaking his head

https://twitter.com/jungkookreally/status/1100338023651192832
