Do you ever like... spazz out?

Post Reply New Topic

I don't mean seizure wise. I'm not sure how to explain it. It's like, when you get really excited or something? I mean for me, its weird because I'll just got so hyper that without anyway to control it. I make squealing noises and pound my wrists together or something... I have ADHD so I'm often naturally hyper and I also only do this at home in my room.

But I was just wondering if anyone else was like this. I know a lot of times I'll flap my hand by my head or by my waist for stimulation. I do get overloaded by little things but as long as I am stimming or doing something that makes me a little more calm then I am fine.

I just want to know if anyone has well, those spazz attacks where they feel really hyper or excited and they start making noises and pounding their wrists together or fidgeting with their hands.

Is it just me? Maybe I'm just weird for doing it...

I used to "spazz out" more when I was younger. I'd jump around, shriek, laugh at inappropriate times, give people strange looks and I still do that but I learned to control that better when I'm around people (except for the strange facial expressions, I don't think I'll ever grow out of that). I also play with my hands and my hair, and when I'm sitting down I usually either curl up in a ball or I'm bent over looking at my feet. I walk funny and sometimes it looks like I'm shaking my a** (that part can be embarrassing because I wasn't intentionally trying to strut my stuff, lol). I'm sure I have other quirks that I am not even aware of. By the way, I like the green hair

My brother does. Sometimes it happens in really dangerous situations and we have to physically restrain him because otherwise he'll run into the road or something sharp! I as an NT have to be VERY excited to "spazz" out. I got offered an awesome job and an I did an actual victory dance. It was in public and I felt hugely embarrassed but I felt so fizzy inside I couldn't help it :-s

I HAVE THAT TOO. I'll sit there and start grinning out of nowhere, like I have no control... or just be doing things with my mouth where I make strange expressions. I used to get made fun of for it in school and teachers thought that was why kids picked on me too. It was like they thought I was doing it on purpose.

Wow... I'm not one to run into the road or anything like that. I only have Asperger Syndrome. I'm more fearful and a little more aware of my surroundings... unless my mind goes in lock down mode than that is a big problem. However, it doesn't happen very often. I spazz out without any reason for excitement. If you were to tell me I won a prize or something and you handed me the prize, I would take it and just give a blank stare. Its hard for me to say thank you or even sorry to people. If I hurt someone in real life like my dad, feelings wise, then I have a meltdown because its just... harder for me to really say 'I'm sorry'.

So the only time I do is if its an unintentional thing... like a reaction. If I bump into someone I'll be like, "Oh, sorry about that". But if someone gives me something, I just have a blank stare. I don't get excited about it or anything. It's usually unintentional when I'm sitting at home and I just start squealing and giggling uncontrollably or something and I pound my wrists... something like that.

But I never do it in public because I am the opposite. You give me my ipod nano and headphones and my Axel plushie and I'll sit there in silence without even a shred of nervousness. As long as I have my music and my comfort object than I'm quite functional. I use music to keep people from talking to me so when they see my headphones in my ears, they don't usually bother me.

He is Aspie too, the meltdowns are usually because he's in a situation where he is meant to be sorry. Or he's excited and we've asked him to calm down. He has no fear or sense of embarrassment

Oh... well its harder for me because I also have agoraphobia. It's a fear of meltdowns in public without escaping to a comfortable place. If I ever do have meltdowns, its because my interests are being threatened and I meltdown instantly. I have huge interests in paranormal and anime.

So if any of them are threatened, like not being able to meet a favorite voice actor because of some ticket restriction... my mind will go in lock down mode and I have a meltdown. It's mostly because I was bullied emotionally and its caused a lot of emotional damage.

When I have overloads, I injure myself... instead of always melting down. My mind goes crazy and I will dig my nails into my skin until they pierce it but its gotten under better control and I usually keep about three journals to write down thoughts.

I have a hard time apologizing too because I hate admitting that I was wrong. It makes me feel weak. So I usually end up acting like a sulky angry 2-year old, which looks even more weak. I also get embarrassed way too easily. I also used to cut myself on purpose but I stopped that because it stopped making me feel better, it just started to make me feel worse. I listen to music that I like instead to get some stress out, and shutting the power off so that I can't listen to music just because you are mad at me is a bad idea (I experienced that recently too).

That sounds like me too a T but eventually I end up apologizing. For me, its harder because I feel embarrassed to say those things to people.

I don't spazz out often but at times I feel like I do it more than it is considered normal for someone.

I never like "spazz out."

I "spazz out" often if I don't take pills for ADHD. So it's not just you.

I do, though perhaps not quite the same. Though I'm almost always stimming, when I get into a bad way I'll almost completely shut down, with the exception of a hand or a leg or such. I don't know what triggers it, but noise always makes it worse...
