Stimming is a term used to describe self-stimulatory behavior that involves repetitive or unusual body movement or noises. It is commonly associated with autism, but it can occur in individuals without neurological differences as well. Examples of stimming include hand and finger mannerisms, rocking, jumping, spinning or twirling, and head-banging. Stimming may occur when an individual is feeling anxious, stressed, excited, or overwhelmed. It may also be a way to process sensory information or communicate with others. Stimming can be managed and it is not always necessary to stop it completely. Different strategies like redirecting attention, providing sensory input in a controlled manner or finding alternative ways to achieve the same stimulation, can be used to manage it.
Emotional Dysregulation is a term used to describe a range of emotional responses that are not within a desirable scope of emotive response, considering the stimuli. This condition is often associated with several mental health conditions including DMDD, BPD, and ADHD. Individuals with emotional dysregulation experience intense emotions more frequently and for longer durations, and have significant skills deficits in emotion. They may feel overwhelmed, have difficulties controlling impulsive behaviors, or have angry outbursts. Emotional dysregulation is a separate condition from ADHD, but the two are closely related as people with ADHD are more likely to develop emotional dysregulation. Examples of emotional dysregulation include extreme mood swings, volatile emotions, impulsive actions, and difficulty managing stress. Treatment for emotional dysregulation may include therapy, medication, and self-care techniques such as mindfulness and relaxation.

The end of the week typically refers to Friday, although in some places Saturday is also considered the end of the week. It is a time when people are finishing up work or school for the week and may have some time off. The term can be used interchangeably with "weekend" in some contexts, but it doesn't always mean the same thing. For some, the end of the week is a time to relax, while for others it may be a time to catch up on errands and chores. The concept of the end of the week is tied to the workweek, which typically runs from Monday to Friday in most parts of the world.
