I worked with a guy who knew my weakness when it came to typing and loud bass lines coming through the wall. He got fired and JUST MY LUCK....got a job in a showroom next to me. So they faced their bass speaker to my wall of my office and would just crank their music all day long. I pleaded with them everyday and asked them to stop. He later told me that the girl who worked in there got a kick out of turning the music up louder when I would ask. It was awful. I would sweat and freak out all day. So, my awesome husband brought some speakers to my office with a bass amp and planted it right against their wall. I could then play my music which would cancel out theirs and I lived happily ever after until my boss decided to change showrooms to another building. The walls

were paper thin, and we were next to a bunch of teenagers who would crank their radio all day. I finally got smart, figured out what radio station they were playing and then I would play the same thing in my office even though it was music I did not like. It's so hard to live in a world where nobody gets it!!!! To: Soundsensitivity Sent: Saturday, September 17, 2011 7:02 PMSubject: Re: (unknown)

It is! I am so glad she is moving, but there will always be someone sick,

eating, chewing gum. I try my hardest to be strong. Somedays I doubt my

strength. Somedays(rarely) I feel strong. The think that makes me extremly mad

is the facebook posts that say how we all have many wishes, but people with

cancer has only one wish. I have one wish. My wish is to not have this

condition. I do feel bad for people with cancer, but other things need

attention. My uncle has really bad epilepsy that is life threatening to him and

others. This is a serious cobdition and it effects peoples life a lot. I have

been really suicidal many times because I think death is the only way out of

beibg in pain. i hope oneday the misophonia awareness day becomes a month.

There needs to be foundations created for misophonia.

I have anger management issues, i think apart from my misophonia, so it were me

and i found out that people were just messin with me, i probably would have went

over there and started a rumble; luckly(i use that word sparingly) i havent been

in situations where the sound is just beyond ridiculously loud to the point you

could practically call the authorities. we live out in the country though, but

that isnt always better. there is no noise ordinance out here, so when my

neighbors, who have a gun fetish, decide to blast their cannons for rifles so

loudly that it raddles our windows, or there is practically a kennle of dogs at

the other neighbors house on the other side of us that bark at everything in the

world all day and all night, there is no one you can call. but isnt it strange

though when if you have control and make the same noise, it doesnt have the same

effect? like the brain somehow at some point crossed some wires and decided to

short circuit our reactions to other people directly to anger. yours is a

perfect example of what the problem realy is; people are normaly bothered by the

loudness of sounds, but we are bothered by our inability to tune out stimuli

outside of our personal field of infulence. i think we just pay too much

attention do changes, reguardless of weather we percieve them as good or bad;

the problem comes when we try to pay attention to something else, and the brain

wont pull itself away for some reason. that fact makes us upset, and we focus

our anger on the sound itself, rather than our obsessiveness.

I totally agree. We all have had that situation where you ask someone to stop so they look at you and do it faster and louder. I had a kid to that to me in psychology class. it gave me the rage feeling and I got a very firm tone and told him" I am dead serious you knock it the hell off" he said sorry and walked away. They think we are kidding. We aren't. To: Soundsensitivity Sent: Friday, September 16, 2011 3:00 PMSubject: Re: (unknown)

I know how hard it is to be in school with misophonia. So if there's a better

way for you to get your education, I want you to be able to do it. Not having a

laptop shouldn't have to get in the way of your education and mental health. I

know that asking for money can be a weird thing... But if you wanted you could

get your parents to set up a PayPal account for donations for you to get a

laptop. I run a website that could help get your story out to hundreds of people

( http://misophoniasupport.tumblr.com/ ) and I'm sure there are lots of people

who would donate. Just a thought.

My parents found out Connections Acadamy provides a laptop. My parents are

looking at the different online homeschooling. I hopefully can do that. I have

fallen so behind that I am lost and have a F- in two classes. History is easy

like science. I am taking advance science and have a A. I have a A in history,

but I am being challenged in history. I am usually pretty good at math, but my

class if full of trigger sounds. I even cried today because I couldn't handle

not crying. I am not the type to cry easily. I am failing english because we

watched video that explain parts of speach. It was so annoying and distracting

that the guy couldn't stop moving his head. I have a hard time with parts of

speach in the first place. School is hard when people get sick, chew gum, snap

their fingers, and wistle. Those are the main sounds along with chewing and

breathing.

http://www.earpeace.com/

na,

Here is the website for earpeace. I found them online and use them when I need to. The flesh colored ones are almost unnoticeable and they block out a lot of sounds while allowing you to hear most voices. Plus they have a nice metal case and are very inexpensive. Free shipping if you buy two.

I am waiting for a wireless earbud technology someday. I am sure they are working on it.

We just have to find things that help us cope at this point.

I have realized that I can do many of the things that I want to, with some limitations, but it takes an effort to create situations that limit exposure to trigger sounds. Find work that you like but does not expose you to those sounds on a daily basis. You will be miserable,like I was when I was young and a Chef in a kitchen full of people eating food!!!

Thanks. I use foam earplugs. I always look at how many decibels they block out. I am in high school where people are so mean. I have been teased for being different. I wear earplugs, but then I can't hear the teacher. If I use my fingers it works, but my hands loose blood flow and I can't write. I probally should use wax, but I got one stuck way far. They tried scraping it out, but it was too painful so they put me to sleep. My family snores and my brother snd dad grind their teath. I have learned to love earplugs. I have had many years of use of earplugs. I am acually thinking of using EarPeace or whatever it's called. >> Hi, I just joined this group and this is my first comment. I have a

long history of nicely asking people to be more quiet. No matter how polite and careful I am, I've always felt that I suddenly become the enemy. Consequently, I've taken to living in earplugs whenever possible. I use the squishy foam ones covered by industrial strength orange earmuff type headphones, (the kind construction workers use.) Sometimes, I use my iPod inside the muff type headphones so I can choose what I hear. I also have a very large fan which makes a soothing noise to cover up most of the infuriating sounds that come my way. Still, I'm wondering if anyone has found "the best earplugs." I'm eager to upgrade.>

Im not 100% sure. I would like mention the ears need to hear some sound. Which i know that some sounds u would like completely blocked. I have read that wearing ear plugs all the time i mean like 24/7 is not good. You could develop hypercusis (which is what i have).

They work for me as well. I have the 15db filter and a cover plug without a

filter that reduces around 30-35db. I carry them around all the time, in case

the need arises. I take public transportation to work, so you can imagine the

sounds, hehe. I try not to wear them all the time, but when I do need to, they

work well enough to save my sanity. I use the 15db when I still need to be able

to hold a conversation, like in restaurants. I took a cruise a year ago, and it

was the best thing I could have gotten to still enjoy a nice meal in the

restaurants: muffled the ice and silverware clinking, slurping, etc. I was lucky

enough to get my own table (was travelling alone) too.

I'm buying two of sets from earpeace.com as well - my musician plugs were $200

and can't afford duplicates of those, but want to have something in all the

purses I use the most. I'll report back too with my findings on these.

Okay. I use to wear earmuffs that the people wear in airports(my dad use to work

at a airport), then wax earplugs because foam earplugs felt weird. I got the wax

earplug stuck in my ear and was a pain in the but to remove(I went to a doctor

and they tried, but it was so painful I said to put me to sleep), then foam

earplugs. I hate the disposible ones because it gets durty and makes that awful

popping sound and I am in trouble if I run out.

Sign me up for the shock collar!

Thank you so much for all of your responses. I can't tell you how much it helps just to know that there are others out there who have these same thoughts and feelings. I sent my husband the link to the Today show interview but he hasn't watched it. I guess I am going to have to sit him down and force him to watch it and then have a very open and honest conversation letting him know that I take it as a direct attack on me when he chews on things and makes irritating noises just for the sake of making them. Either that or I will have to figure out some way to get a shock collar on him and then I can just zap him everytime he makes a sound. Oh, just think of it...how great would that be to be able to punish each and every person who ever chewed gum...slurrped their food, smacked their lips? We could band together and we

would have this world irritating noise free in no time. Oh, what a wonderful world it could be...

I guess I am going to have to sit him down and force him to watch it and then have a very open and honest conversation letting him know that I take it as a direct attack on me when he chews on things and makes irritating noises just for the sake of making them. Either that or I will have to figure out some way to get a shock collar on him and then I can just zap him everytime he makes a sound. Oh, just think of it...how great would that be to be able to punish each and every person who ever chewed gum...slurrped their food, smacked their lips? We could band together and we

would have this world irritating noise free in no time. Oh, what a wonderful world it could be...

Sign me up for the shock collar, too. As an alternative to physical violence, I

get my saliva on my hand and rub it on his forehead or neck. He is a Kung Fu

master and knows how to block me, so I have to be fast. Sometimes, he just lets

me do it just so I get it out of my system. After 22 years of marriage, it does

not occur to him to be considerate of my sensitivities. Recently, we went to

counseling, and the counselor suggested that he at least try to control his

noises. He acted like it was such a novel concept. What have I been telling you

all these years, nitwit? Anyway, his being considerate did not even last a day.

He went back to torturing me with his ever-present barrage of noises. I think he

has more mucus and saliva than anyone else in the world. It's like he always has

a really bad cold. How can someone be so insensitive? I know it is possible to

watch your noises, because my daughter and sisters are great about it. Why is my

husband such a neanderthal? I think it's a way of being passive agressive.

I think it is a passive aggressive way of expressing the anger over The inconvenience of having to be so aware and in control of the sounds one makes. Probably reasonable since our demands may be a bit unreasonable at times. They my be gross and inconsiderate, but to be honest we must not be the easiest to live with. We are not the only ones who suffer with this. Try the shock collar!How about a "shock jock" for annoying husbands:)Mike. Sent from my iPhone

My mom flicks her fingers either on the arm of the couch or if we're in the car

on her leg. Half the time she honestly doesn't know she's doing it and if I say

something she'll stop. As much as the sound bothers me I think it's funny when

we're in the car, I'm driving the radio is on and I hear it, she always goes

" What?! Oh, you hear that? "

------------------------------

>I had to break up with someone who rubbed his feet together in bed or while

watching tv. He would also rub his 2nd toe against his big Toe. Drove me crazy!

He knew about my sensitivity tocertain sounds, but refused to believe that I

could hear his feet. Soft sounds can seem louder than the TV. It didn't help

that I could also see his feet. Some visuals upset me because I anticipate the

sound that they could make. A friend swinging his legs made me yell at him. He

said Owhy I'm not making any noise " I couldn't explain. It was just really

upsetting me.
