I don't get it still... The definition confuses me more

Edit: online i read a bunch of stuff about covid?

Stimmy (adjective): Pertaining to or characteristic of objects used for stimming—repetitive movements or actions that neurodiverse individuals engage in to self-regulate or provide sensory input. Stimmy objects, such as fidget spinners, stress balls, or textured toys, help individuals manage sensory needs, reduce anxiety, and improve focus.
