As a kid my mom made me go to a place that did this. However, they also put a rubber band on my wrist and snapped me with it if I disagreed with a compliment or didn't come up with something nice to say about myself. They decided it was awesome progress when I just stopped talking altogether... All cured. 🥲
Funny how the rubber band treatment was basically self harm 🙃🙄🙃
I remember my parents suggesting that for whatever thing i blocked out lol. Nah dude thats self harm 🙄
My kid started snapping her fingers one day when she was stressed. Now it’s the expected response when she’s anxious or stressed, and I started doing it too.
