Thank(space)you said: I've got a terrible habit with skin picking on my fingers and it's been terrible lately, they're soooo sore I have this too, there is name for it that I can't remember but I feel you, it's so hard to stop! I do find nail clippers or files help when it gets really bad, cut or file the bit you're picking then put a plaster on. Have you tried fidget toys? It's the worst!

Rating fidget toys that I own!
1 - a 3d printed plastic thing I got from a local toy store. 8/10. I absolutely love this thing. For me, it’s a 10. Only reason I rated it lower was because it’s loud. It makes loud plastic scraping sounds and it tickles my brain. I like it. 2 - these things have so many names. Idk what to call em. 9/10. They remind me of cracking my knuckles. It does annoy others around me, though I don’t think it’s terribly loud. 3 - speks jumbo sized gump. Before I got this, I had a needoh nice cube I had been using for years before the seal started to separate. 10/10. It is a dog hair magnet, but it’s very easy to clean. You can play with it with 2 hands, it’s softer than the nice cube and feels higher quality. I love it, it’s quiet and if you squish it, it makes a clicky sound when you let go of it. 4 - pop it. This is my best one out of my collection. Used to like these, not a big fan anymore. 6/10. Kind of loud. It does have a satisfying crunchy pop though. 5 - mini needoh. It has a doughy texture and I loved it. 9/10. I played with it too much and it popped… :( 6 - rolling thingy? I’m not sure what to call it. It spins. 5/10. Too repetitive for me. 7 - putty. I love these. 6/10. They get stuck closed too easily. Haven’t been able to open any of them for years lmao… 8 - infinity cube, metal. 8/10. It’s heavy. Requires some concentration, and it’s cold to the touch at first, which I like. 9 - spiky rings. 9/10. Wish there was a bigger one of these that could press into my hand. I like the spiky feeling when it presses into my hand. Please give me recommendations for things like that!!! 10 - needoh snowball. 10/10. Love the crunchy sound…it popped though. After like 2 years of use.. I’m kinda sad about it but it’s ok! 11 - hematite rocks/magnets - 8/10. A bit weird to bring places, loud, very heavy. I usually only use these at home. Let me know what u think of my ratings!! Possibly give me ur own opinions or fidget recommendations for me in the replies!!!! submitted by /u/AM3THYSTG30D3 to r/autism [link] [comments]
