How many types of stimming do you know / use / notice?

How do you process layered sounds and rhythms in music? Do you tend to isolate them or experience them as a whole?

Asking my fellow #Autistic / #AuDHD / #ADHD: what kind of music do you find particularly stim-friendly / stim-inspiring? And what is it about that music that makes it that way?

Photo of Dr Lovaas with the quote from him “You see, you start pretty much from scratch when you work with an autistic child. You have a person in the physical sense - they have hair, a nose and a mouth - but they are not people in the psychological sense. One way to look at the job of helping autistic kids is to see it as a matter of constructing a person. You have the raw materials, but you have to build the person." Ivar Lovaas, a founder of ABA www.the-art-of-autism.com
