I just finished a long and insanely stressful sensory overload appointment to deal with some government paperwork stuff, and I realized partway in that I could REALLY use something unobtrusive to stim with. Anybody have good recommendations for something small enough to slip into my purse and that wouldn’t look far too awkward to use in a public environment dominated by neurotypical people? (I’m not concerned about looking a little awkward, lol, that ship sailed a long time ago)

    Very cheap and also cool because you can find the perfect one for you yourself: a smooth rock. I keep one in most of my jacket pockets and it’s great to fidget with on the go, it also doesn’t make any sounds like some fidget toys do. No one will ever know.

    i have a soft leather keychain that i clip to whatever bag i’m using, it’s not overly fidgety but it is a pleasant sensation
