Well unfortunately we can't comment. I have a YouTube account as I review makeup and beauty products ( lalalavish ) if your curious to meet me just type that into YouTube the point is rarely people set up a system where they have to approve the message before it's posted well surprise surprise she blocked comments until she's read them and approved them sounds like she's not interested in any feedback or ideas te sign of a closed minded approach. At the start of the video she asked him what our condition is called as she forgot, really? How can you forget the name of a condition you are going to talk to it shows how little she really understands or cares to understand. She also says I broke the news to him that his "diagnosis" (with the air parenthesis and LAUGHING) is actually a tendency. She days a diagnosis makes it more problematic, really? To whom? If she took a second to look into our world she would see how uplifting and BLESSED we feel to have a diagnosis. She calls it a tendency, well a tendency is a deliberate approach that we make, this would mean that we control the ability to make it stop- that thinking makes it WORSE for many because when they can't stop it feelings of self blame and guilt add onto our already intolerable pain. This is why the diagnosis is such a godsend for most of us. I may make a YouTube video about this since I have about 8,000 viewers I just need to put the right words together first....

Just wanted to quickly add, Chris--no apologies or forgiveness necessary. I hope I didn't come off harshly in any of my responses. Any irritation I may have communicated was directed toward the interviewer, not you! And it's just as well we know the video exists now, because, as Heidi pointed out, we can make our own voices heard on YouTube's comments section.

So really, thank you! And welcome aboard. This is a fantastic support group.

Yeah, which just further makes me think she's a sham trying to make a buck off people that don't know bettter/are desperate for help. I just looked though, and I am seeing a couple of comments, and they're not all positive. So maybe she opened it up to comments?

 Anyway, best thing to do in these cases is to get as much accurate information as possible out there. Unfortunately in these days of sound bites and alarmist/sensationalist reporting, that's not enough. Gotta make some noise and attract attention, too, or you get drowned out in all the ZOMGWTFBBQ!!1!oneone noise while people kee flocking to the " eat as much of whatever you want and still lose weight " types.

 Maybe someone should post a video response to this person? Not me though. Mine would just be (to her) " you're an idiot, and so are the people that buy into your voodoo. "

For me, I've never felt that need to find out where the sound is coming from, maybe because I'm only triggered by eating & whistling mostly and its pretty obvious where they are coming from? But if you ask my boyfriend, he'll tell you that I'm the extreme definition of "go with the flow." :)Anyway, I don't think its control with me. The only time I've felt anything out side of a response to the sound is anxiety when I know I'm going to be stuck with people crunching. Like after the SF Giants game last week when a company was there handing out Pita Chips, and I had to get on an extremely packed train full of people with bags of Pita Chips. Aah!!

Oh, I believe it’s definitely the sounds.  My daughter was having a nervous breakdown in the car one day and she didn’t know why or what she was hearing.  We stopped and searched the car and found a water bottle under one of the seats—it was making a slight sloshing noise (no one else heard it). When we took it out she was fine.  I find it interesting that misophonia has very similar onset and symptoms in most people.  My daughter was 8 when she got it.  It came on her literally overnight.  For a long time she could remember what it was like to be “normal†and would say she wished she could just go back to being normal.  Now she is 15 and doesn’t really remember life without misophonia—it’s sad.  We need research.

An interesting angle on Misophonia. You be your own judge of the content. I'd be interested in hearing what others think.

[Guest guest]

I was around 5 when it started. My life changed after that. I was always stressed and nervous. I too miss those early years when I was truly happy and content.

I try to make the best of what I have. Not being trapped in a situation or job that requires me to endure the noises takes a lot of the pressure off. I have to feel that

I can escape it if I need to. I obsess and lose hundreds of hours of much needed sleep if I feel that I will have to endure a bad situation for a long time.

PLEASE!!!! Someone who can get signed in to leave a comment please copy and

paste my comment. (I can't get in)

RUN! RUN AWAY!! Do not walk. I had 9 months' of EFT twice a week with the

founder of EFT and the end result was like trying to excise a tumor with

imagery. I have used EFT for calming myself when upset or when I am in despair

about misophonia but EFT and/or TFT will not heal an issue that is not

psychological in nature. The erroneous thinking that all dis-ease has an

emotional basis went away with the advent of chemotherapy drugs for treating

cancer. Not that everyone who has cancer will choose chemotherapy as a

treatment, but it is offered by the medical community as a viable option. BTW,

the woman here isn't using the set up properly and even her tapping sequence is

incorrect.

Psssst to the practitioner: If you don't know what it is, don't go there. If

you were licensed you would have to abide by " Do no harm . . . "

I don't want to discount any psychological element that may be a factor to this,

because I do believe that there must be some tie in there somewhere, but to but

to be fair I think that there are a lot of trigger noises that would bother me

if they were human generated or not. For example, the sound of one of those

water bottles with the sports cap on them that encourages people to essentially

suck the water out of them and then releases that slurping noise when the mouth

is disconnected from the bottle and the subsequent crackling sound of the

plastic as it gains it shape back sends me into such a rage that I think my

eyeballs will pop out. I truly believe that if you got a robot to do that it

would have the same effect on me; at the very least, the plastic would make that

noise after the water drained out of it.

To be honest, I have never seen a therapist about this so I haven't delved into

any underlying psychological issues that may be connected to it, but overall I

tend to be a very easy going person who has no problem with other people setting

the agenda or being group leader. My control issue, if I have one, is taking an

objection to being told that I have to do something. It's not a rebellion

against authority, however. Professional superiors, professors, etc - I may not

like it, but I will do as I am told. If friends or family tell me rather than

ask, I don't freak out, I just tell them that I won't do it unless they ask me

rather than tell me. Does that count as a control issue?

As a side note to that video: the woman struck me as well intended but as yet

another individual who does not understand what is happening and is trying to

give another " get over it " technique. Instead of listening to the man, she told

him how he felt. That worries me a great deal.

>

> That reminds me, although pen clicking does irratate me. But speaking about

It doesn't bother me at all. And when she is smacking i think about, wondering

why on earth that it doesn't give me the angry feeling. and I mean she SMACKS!

"I kept waiting for her to tell him he needed to get his chi aligned too or drink more wheat grass."

You are too funny! Point taken.

I had to watch it a few times to get past all of those physical gestures (which is obvoius fluff) and focus on what was said. Just out here searching and wanted to get some reaction.

I just found this board with all the hoopla surrounding the NYT article and the

Today Show spotlight. It's wonderful to hear this " disorder " legitimized. I

think it's true that our select sound triggers go straight to the limbic system;

that would explain the rage. However, my own triggers are so select, and tied to

loved ones, that I have to think there is more to it than just a sensory

processing impairment. The beauty of getting a spotlight is that now there may

be more research on this complicated thing. The first article I read described

the disorder as " extremely rare, " but the more people I talk to, the more I

think it's not that rare.

I looked at this video, and my response is that it's pretty oversimplified, but

whatever works and doesn't hurt others.

Yeah—Matt Lauer introduced it as a rare condition, but I have met so many people with it. I have estimated that 1 out of 50 people have it. Just by figuring the number of kids I’ve met with it at the different schools that I’ve substituted at, that is the ratio I have found. I think that this condition has been responsible for many problems in society including many divorces, child abuse, suicides, some murder (although not as common), etc. We need it researched.

It's wonderful to hear this " disorder " legitimized. I think it's true that our select sound triggers go straight to the limbic system; that would explain the rage. However, my own triggers are so select, and tied to loved ones, that I have to think there is more to it than just a sensory processing impairment. The beauty of getting a spotlight is that now there may be more research on this complicated thing. The first article I read described the disorder as " extremely rare, " but the more people I talk to, the more I think it's not that rare.I looked at this video, and my response is that it's pretty oversimplified, but whatever works and doesn't hurt others.>> An interesting angle on Misophonia. You be your own judge of the content. I'd be interested in hearing what others think.> >

This describes me too. If I hear two people having a conversation outside, it

will bother me - at the level of annoyance, rather than rage - until I go to the

window and see who it is. Then, if I see that it's Dan and Jane, pointing at

flowers, I surmise they're talking about the flowers, and maybe what to plant

next year and I feel a lot less annoyed.

If I hear a truck idling, it's annoying until I go the window and see what truck

it is. Weirdly, if the truck has an identifying logo, like Fedex or Peapod,

it's less annoying than if it has no logo and I have no idea what business

they're conducting.
