Was taking pics in the mirror with my daughter and some had me closing my hands. I don't usually know I'm doing it, looks like im gripping / holding something. Is this stiming?

I pick at things like hardened bits of wax on a candle and labels on bottles.

Used to shuffle my feet when I was sitting down but it was mentioned so many times I stopped it.

Could that be stiming or just anxiety?

I don't think the hand thing is stimming, but the picking at things and shuffling your feet most likely is.
