A new tag for regressors who stim!
After having an unexpectedly dificult time finding stim blogs that are accepting of cglre, sfw littles, or just regressors in general, I decided to make a tag just for us!
Stimreg is a 100% sfw, agere society-aligned stim tag; cglre, liltot, and sfw little friendly.
Let’s take a moment to fill in those who aren’t in the know. If you’re just judging by the stim tag, you might think stimming is just for the aesthetic; that it’s playing with slime, frosting cupcakes, or watching sparkly things move under the light. While that is a type of stimming, it’s actually defined as this:
“Stimming: self-stimulatory behavior, also known as stimming and self-stimulation, is the repetition of physical movements, sounds, or repetitive movement of objects common in individuals with developmental disabilities, and most prevalent in people with autism spectrum disorders”
So, yes, slime, sparkles, and frosting can be stims, but so are chewing, rocking back and forth, waving your arms, clicking your tongue, and whole lots more. This tag will cover the more aesthetic side of stimming as well as the more common, irl self-stimulating behavior.
In addition to the previously mentioned groups, stimming is also common among people with adhd, ocd, anxiety disorders, sensory processing disorders, and other conditions and mental illnesses. Neurotypical people can stim, too, of course. Repetition is comforting and watching and listening to stims online is calming. Stimming, like regression, may be more common among neurodiverse people, but it’s a coping mechanism anyone can use.
Who can use the stimreg tag?
While anyone can stim, not everyone can use the stimreg tag. This tag was made specifically for regressors on the agere society/cglre-like side of the regression community here on tumblr. That means that if you don’t allow cglre, liltot, or sfw little interaction, you probably shouldn’t be using this tag.
This tag also follows the rules of the other agere society-aligned tags I’ve created, which you can learn about by using this link.
If you know of a cglre/liltot/sfw little friendly stim blog, please tag them so they can start using the stimreg tag!
