16. A mesh sock toy with a hidden marble that provides a much-needed, soothing activity.

Promising review: "When I first saw these fidget toys, I wasn't sure they would be effective. I decided to get them on the off-chance my kids would take to them. After receiving them, it only took a minute of fidgeting with them myself before I decided they're the perfect fidget toys. In fact, I now keep one in my purse." —Jennifer
17. A translucent egg you can squeeze until a little Gudetama appears.

Promising review: "I absolutely love this. Gudetama is in an adorable resting position and the 'egg' is very strong and durable so squeezing him frequently does not appears to be a problem. I've had him for over two weeks and have been using the egg like a stress ball and so far there is no sign of wear or tearing to the material. It's filled with a watery substance instead of a goo, so it's not the best stress ball but it's a great novelty item and I would definitely buy more in the future." —Samantha L.
Get it on Amazon for $11.
18. A container of mesmerizing putty in a variety of colors and styles for every type of person.

19. A bicycle chain-like toy with tiny spinning wheels that offers relief for your nervous hands.

Promising review: "These fidget spinner are small and fun. I like their size because they're great for small hands and kiddos. You can put them on your fingers and twirl. I also love the various colors options for the rubber bands. You can change out the colors easily when you want to mix it up. They don't feel cheap either." —Stacey
Get it from Amazon for $9.90.
20. A menagerie of random little squishy friends you can channel all your anxiety into.

21. A pack of glittery tops to spin when your head is also spinning.

Get it from Amazon for $7.29.
22. A PlayStation controller-inspired pushpad that fits nicely in your hand and provides plenty of buttons to press.

Promising review: "For anyone who either can't sit still, has anxiety, or just needs something to fiddle with, this has helped me so much. The only downside I noticed is that some buttons actually had clicking noises so if that bugs you, then this isn't for you. I personally love the clicking noises even though it drives my boyfriend insane." —Kelly B.

It's also just fun to hold in your hand and massage. I'm already planning on buying more so I can make bigger shapes." —Courtney B.
Get it on Amazon for $9.82.
