Autistic Hedgehog
RSSIs it possible that instead of having certain motions for different moods or situations like flapping when happy, or rocking when nervous, they vary with intensity of mood instead, like rocking when less extreme and flapping with more urgency?

I don’t see why not. Stimming seems to vary greatly from autistic to autistic. Most autistics I know talk about happy flapping, for example, but I almost never flap when happy. Usually it comes with nerves (though I’ve recently discovered that abject horror will make me flap too. I never knew that until I watched Once Upon a Time).
That your stims are related to the intensity of your mood rather than which mood is just your variation of something we all experience.

Feeling prickly today? Feel more like giving someone a smackdown than having a meltdown? Fellow autistics, you are not alone.
