Do you find yourself sometimes repeating yourself? Not in a ’ I forget i’d told that story before’ kind of way, but repeating words and phrases. I’ll find myself doing it sometimes. I can be aware I’m doing it a certain level, but it’s still uttered.
The thing is it’s not something I do when I’m with people. Whether that means anything I don’t know.
Could it possibly be a form of stimming, @firemonkey?
Not so knowledgable on the matter, but from what I understand, “stimming” is any repetitious behavior that brings comfort.
Hopefully it’s not affecting your days too much 
It could be stimming, that’s a good point. It’s happening a lot at the moment when I get up to do any thing. Although my granddaughter can just see a little flap of skin, the sole of my right foot is sore when I walk. I keep saying **** it, **** it etc.
Ahhh I see, could definitely also be a natural reaction to your sore foot for sure.
I don’t know if this counts, but there were catchphrases and words the voices would repeat over and over… Probably not stimming, but rather a misfire of the brain.
Hope your foot feels better soon
We missed you, @firemonkey! Glad you’re back! 
I don’t repeat words, but all day long I’m either swinging a leg, doing repetitious patterns in my toes or in my fingers. I can’t stop. But it does calm me a bit
For me rocking can help.
I feel i am stuck, it seems i am going mentally not forward. Whatever i think i thought about it before. I don’t know maybe i should read more.
Yeah, sometimes I rock too
