I can either suppress it or hid it in public most of the time. Now and then I will slip and forget and have to stop myself though lol. Once I get home I then tend to overcompensate and go on a stimming spree lol. One stim I could get away with and which I don't do much at the moment was chewing my pen lid. There was usually nothing left of them by the time I had finished with them lol. Also nail biting is an acceptable stim.
Agreed, it is easier for me to suppress it in public because I'm more conscious of my actions. I don't do the pen lids as much now, but nail biting is the worst for me. I can't remember a time I let them grow long enough to warrant a nail clipper. The worst is when I have to sit myself down and stay immobile, like watching television, reading a book, or doing homework. After that, it's game over for my nails.
