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?

My old car used to have a switchblade key (Mazda 2) and that was the best fidget when I was out and about.

Right now on my desk I have a 7mm or so, heavy allen wrench that provides plenty of mindless, quiet, fidgeting. My only wish is that it would stay colder longer.
