From an AuDHD body doing what they do best: regulating, processing, surviving and creating all at once.
For us, this is a glimmer.
Not a forced positivity. Just a small, real moment of relief, focus, or calm in a busy, overwhelming world.
Stimming isn’t something to fix or hide.

Sometimes stimming isn’t loud or visible.
Sometimes it’s a pen moving in circles.
A line that loops back on itself.
A pattern that steadies the nervous system and lets the world soften for a moment.
These pieces grew from stimming.

Anyway … I could be reading into it but it feels like Mel is more bluntly Autistic this season that the last which makes sense “in universe” and “out” …

In-Universe … Mel has been working at the Pitt for around 10 more months so she is more comfortable in tbe environment.

Taylor Dearden (the actor playing Mel King) is openly ADHDer and does an excellent job in the role of a Neurodiverent (Autistic) doctor.

In this scene you can clearly see that even in the out of focus background Taylor as Mel is consitantly stimming.

(note they have ASL interpreter for The Pitt)

three doctors are asked if they have any questions and Mel doesn't respond because she doesn't have any questions but she fairly called out because she is ... obviously stimming and looking at her stethescome. She responds by saying "I didn't say anything" ... (tbf, she has something on her mind)

Season 2 of The Pitt has started and and I am delighted that the show is continuing to showcase Dr. Mel King as authentically Autistic.

The first moment we see her this season she is quasi-distracted stimming with her stethescope (but she is aware of what is going on)

that looked so soft and would fit so nicely over his compression garments and--

he finds himself coming closer to the window, absentmindedly stimming with his tail as he looks at it.

He... He could just say he was thinking amy would look nice in it if someone asked.. right?

My brain is trying to protect itself by memeing and vocal stimming because I spent the last 2 hours of my shift today uncontrollably sobbing because potential health scare and these fuckass coders having the reading comprehension of a toddler

all the love that is in & around it:

how meditative it feels. there so much stimming going on all at once—it soothes my nervous system & calms me. it makes me feel connected to my ancestors & my inner child. it makes people happy & comforts them. it just all feels like love. i love it!

she's playing with her jewellery (stimming), she's putting up her hair (its in her face), she's touring the facility (lost and won't ask for help), she's picking up slack (afraid of confrontation with coworkers)

my brother, she is autistic
