Hitting self or shaking fist in air

Post Reply New Topic

When I'm anxious, or having a meltdown, I either hit my leg, or form fists with my hands and kinda hit the air, if you know what I mean. I did it accidentally in front of my psychiatrist and she was like "why are you doing that?" And I almost said "you are the doctor tell me!! !" But I said "I do it when excited or frustrated!"

Does this behavior sound autistic, or is it frustration only?

I do similar things. Probably a combination of both.
