I only find this happens in pockets , sometimes this can be a good thing as you can feel your skin underneath ( feel a bit weird admitting this ).
Bah, don't feel weird mate. We're all in these forums in pursuit of honesty and connecting with one another. Admitting my most crazy stimming and Aspie habits and even my affinity for crying often like a baby was a challenge at first for me but now feels endlessly gratifying.

I stim wherever, public and private.

One day I will reach that level of bravery for stimming in public. It would certainly be alot less stressful for me, and would relieve alot of pressure on my already heart-attacked heart. I admire you for this my friend.
My parents, both mother and father, enforced a strict stimming suppression system on me that often involved brutal punishments such as stick on the butt and many other forms of corporal physical punishments. In the end, those actions never suppressed any of my stimming, it only made me feel guilty every time I stimmed which stressed me completely out of my mind.
All they cared about was wanting to appear like a "normal" family, aka NT family. It was an unimaginably brutal childhood for me and only lead to many more health problems. Most of the reason why I'm such a nervous wreck now. My therapist lists my current anxiety status as "inconceivable".
