Introducing Myself

Hi! My name is Aviisalive, and I am a teen (16-18 range) looking for a mental health community. I live with #SchizoaffectiveDisorder #ObsessiveCompulsiveDisorder #TouretteSyndrome #AuditoryProcessingDisorder , and I have several undiagnosed or therapist diagnosed (as opposed to psychologist/psychiatrist diagnosed, no less valid though!) mental health conditions as well. I also have several chronic illnesses which impact my daily functioning. I'm new to Mighty, as well, so if anyone has tips on how to use it, that would be greatly appreciated!
Happy to be here and to meet more people on this journey!

Stimming

Stimming can be funny sometimes. I do a lot of verbal stimming. So a few times a day I'll sing the corn song from tiktok "It's corn! A big lump with knobs. It has the juice! (It has the juice) I can't imagine a more beautiful thing. It's corn! I can tell you all about it! I mean, look at this thing! When I tried it with butter, everything changed!" My spouse always laughs and now often joins me for this one. I'll also randomly say "woohoo!" (I play a lot of Mario Kart) And I hum one of the Pokémon route songs from the older games (can't remember which) What is one way you notice yourself stimming or what are some funny stims you have?
