So today I’m taking out my fidget toy to work (neatly hidden away in my pocket) and so far I do have to say it helps. Every now and then I click the buttons and it shuts my mind up for a few seconds during which I can refocus.

It’s strangely soothing. It also does give me a headache when I do it too much.

What are your findings?

I’ve got a fidget cube and spinner, but my lifelong tradition of finding and fidgeting with blue tac has never gone away

    Somehow not really, it’s probably since I wash my hands pretty regularly and don't really sweat on my fingertips since I’ve been doing it for so long lmao. Although I do replace the blue tac whenever it does eventually get dirty from other things, which is probably like once every 2 years or so.
