My boyfriend "stims" when he gets anxious. Does this mean that he is autistic? Do non-autistic people stim?
Well, my boyfriend "stims" when he gets anxious. Does this mean that he is autistic?
Not necessarily. Stimming can be a symptom of anxiety or other conditions as well as autism, but it is not always indicative of any particular diagnosis on its own. It may be helpful to speak with a healthcare or mental health professional if you have questions or concerns about your boyfriend's behavior.
