The Fidget Cube honestly helps me more than the spinner does and I have Asperger's.

[@sadmac356]

My two cents, and keep in mind that I have ADHD and anxiety: Yes, I fidget. I really like the fidget cube myself, in fact. While I don't personally understand how the spinner works, I'm not gonna judge you if you like it. Can they be distracting? Absolutely. But that really depends on what you're fidgeting with and how; if you're doing something like clicking a pen while I'm trying to work on something, or you're sitting at a table with me and your leg's bouncing and shaking the table, I will get annoyed. That's the point where I'll say something like, "Okay, I understand that you need to fidget, I do too, but can you please redirect it, it's distracting me?" and if I have an extra fidget, I may let you borrow it, depending on what it is.

[@missmisaamane1]

Fidget cubes (I have 2) have helped me cope with my trichotillomania, anxiety and OCD. My hair is growing back in, my nails are intact, I'm more focused and I've passed maths 092 (remedial college level/ prealgebra) with a B-. I'm thankful for my cube. It helps so much.

I use fidgets for my anxiety and ADD. I love fidget toys, I have Tangles and a Fidget Cube. It helps me focus so much. I like fidget spinners except when people spin them when it's super quiet. If a fidget toy distracts you then Try another fidget toy. It's just like clothes; one shirt may not fit at all while another shirt may fit perfectly

[@fridayizzy40234]

But don't be the jerk who uses fidget toys just because and uses the noise buttons on fidget cubes or makes noise with Fidget spinner and ends up distracting the people who actually need fidget toys.

People who didn’t actually need them used them as toys when I was in middle school and got them banned. The kids like me who really benefit from fidget toys did poorly in school as a result.

[@MF-dz7cp]

They're banned in my school too, but I still bring fidget toys to school. People vape in class, so I think I can bring fidget toys too

[@abigaillachney9734]

I needed one of these when I was a kid. I have ADD, and when I was in elementary school, my doctor recommended I bring a hackie sack or silly putty for me to fidget with, cause I don't think fidget cubes were a thing yet. I fidget with EVERYTHING. Mostly my phone; I'll fidget with the case. I know a few kids who have ADHD and bring a fidget cube to school to help them focus. I think it's so cool.

[@abigaillachney9734]

Putty was the best!

[@onekneeta]

As a mother of a son who has Aspergers the fidget cube is amazing. He finds it so hard NOT to fidget, he can't keep still, not touch something or make noises. At school he was struggling and getting told off for disrupting the class, we bought him the fidget cube and he is finding school much better, he's able to concentrate on his work and he makes less noise aswell... I highly recommend the fidget cube!

[@LizardaWizard]

and this video happened BEFORE the huge fidget spinner craze

[@skysmindgarden]

The reason teachers don't allow fidgets are because students use them as toys instead of fidgeting and paying attention. Total run-on sentence.

[@alexwright7012]

And that effects all the kids who need them to pay attention and aren't playing with them but actually trying to focus and learn.

[@insert8242]

Fidget toys got banned which is quite a bummer in my school. I have ADHD and without fidget gadgets I will massively underperform. I have to bring them in and hide them under my desk 😂

[@chaxygaming4652]

[@BHKoga127]

As one who both needs a fidget and works with children daily that need them, I'm very thankful these are around. It's really helped improve many of my students' days and I hope the stigma around fidgeting can lessen - at least in schools.

[@kailenlogsdon8139]

BHKoga127 sadly my teacher takes them away if she sees someone with one

[@BHKoga127]

Sorry to hear that. I know many classrooms see them as just distractions - which they certainly can be - but as long as it's being used as an attention focusing "fidget" and not just a distraction/"toy" I think they're worth while.

It feels like everyone has a fidget spinner, I feel like I'm in the minority with my cube. 😂😂 The cube just works better to help my anxiety though.

[@thetoot9615]

I also prefer the cube, it's more useful and less noticeable

[@trapoutmike]

cube is better

[@BalrogQuote]

Zeno Sama agreed

[@thisisaname6702]

Same my cube helps me with my social anxiety and claustrophobia so much more than the spinners

Honestly, I find the cube one quite helpful. I've found that it helps a bit with stress. It gives me somewhere to channel my energy

[@someonerandom256]

They are for disorders like anxiety, ADHD, and Aspergers. I can't sit still unless I have something in my hands. I can't just watch a movie, I have to draw a picture, cross stitch, or something like that. If I can't, I have to jiggle my legs, or tap my fingers together, or play with my hair. I'd go insane if I had to sit completely still!

At 3:07 Link : proceeds to tell Rhett "n-now it's moist!" after Rhett drinks the cup containing the toy. Rhett : doesn't respond Link : laughs at his own joke because Rhett didn't. I swear link has the brain of a 10 year old 😂

[@Klobbb]

Haha

[@theoreticalstranger4339]

Lily Armstrong what kind of vulgar 10 year olds do you have where you are from

[@TLKcomics]

Is it weird that all of Rhett's fidgets were originally, in my childhood, MY fidgets? I loved messing around with bike tires and bushing buttons on the remote. etc etc

[@sapphictoadstool]

"Which crevice?" -Rhett, 2017

[@jazzyurwin-mann8591]

when Rhett was playing with the remote, his wife was probably having a fit because she can't find the remote whilst the TV is randomly getting louder and going on menu and channel swiching and thinking the house is haunted edit: Wow, thanks for all the likes! who thinks we can get to 500? COME ON!

[@cloroxbleachdrinkme2389]

Kaitlyn Ashleigh I would recommend the fidget spinner

[@samc3229]

Kaitlyn Ashleigh I do the same thing, but I have ADHD. I also pinch at my skin on my forearm and cause some really bad bruising, but when I started fidgeting with a roll of masking tape, it helped me quite a bit. I highly recommend you get something, it helps quite a bit.

[@kaitlynashleigh5370]

yeah, I have been looking into which I should buy. I need something I can use whilst in class,that won't be a bother to my peers or teacher.

[@Ricegumsbiggestfan]

Kaitlyn Ashleigh u should get a fidget spinner

[@dawnelson6100]

This is coming from an avid fidget spinner collector, the way dude was running his hand down the spinner, with that awkward jerk at the end was hilarious.

[@spookydeer3700]

Jane Hervilla lol me too

[@twistedoldloony]

Experts say the same thing about doodling! Doodling has the same kind of bad stigma that fidgeting has and it also actually helps you concentrate better. I need one of these! I'm an adult with ADD and have the habit of spinning and fidgeting with my rings too. One of them in particular that has raised ridges on the edge has made a big thick callus on one of my fingers. Lol! However before that I was doing other things that were much more destructive so I was very happy when I finally settled into ring fidgeting. I'll be looking into these types of devices!!

[@notFideos]

Twistfaria hue I had to work over time for a fidget spinner. SO WORTH IT!!! I GOT STRAIGHT AS >:D

[@duffymarie3322]

I have both a spinner and cube. I enjoy them both equally, but the cube is a little more noisy. I don't wanna make you think you should get one over the other, but keep in mind noise disruptancy if you will bring it to work or other places where it might be more distracting to others.

[@BrickThunder]

3:32 HAHAHAHAHA 😂🤣😂🤣😂 That’s exactly what would happen!

[@thischannelisdead3809]

It's funny because I'm addicted to watching your videos at night while playing with my fidget pad :3 (It's like a cube but one side is modeld like an Xbox controller)
