Guest guest Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 I'm wondering how closely connected misophonia is to OCD.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 Hi Mike. Trying to capitalize everything. My OCD is really under control with Cymbalta. I don't clean constantly or count everything. It does nothing for Misophonia.To: Soundsensitivity Sent: Sat, May 19, 2012 7:04:39 AMSubject: Re: 20/20 segment I'm wondering how closely connected misophonia is to OCD.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 Don't know if Misophonia is related to OCD, but I also have both. > > > > I'm wondering how closely connected misophonia is to OCD.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 Thank you, jean. It sure is neat to be able to complain about such silly things and not be thought a nut. 20/20 segment so sorry, Mike, I do capitalize when formally writing something, but I find it interferes with the speed of my typing, which I like to maximize. I've only gotten objections from a very few people over the years. Don't get me started on poor grammar, punctuation (those extraneous apostrophes...grrr....), spelling, pronunciation, etc. I realize that using capitals helps people who read quickly to identify proper nouns.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 Mike, This is a question many have asked, including myself. I also have OCD as do others who have Misophonia. However, there are some who don't have OCD or anything close to it. I've had doctors assume this is OCD and have been on meds for it. The meds helped my OCD, but did nothing for the sound issues. Not to say that it 'won't' help someone else, but for me it did not. Maybe there needs to be trials to discover a certain dose or something that may work. I'd gladly be the guinea pig. > > I'm wondering how closely connected misophonia is to OCD.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 Welcome lumalee! To answer your question about if anyone has family who also suffers from this, my answer is YES. My mother has a slight case, my sister and her daughter also have it. I firmly believe there is a genetic component to it. I'm happy you now have a source to let your parents know that this is indeed REAL. > > oh my goodness this segment came right on time! i was at a point where my parents wouldn't listen to me anymore about how much i hate smacking on food (or slurping, or chomping, etc.)! Thanks to this now probably my parents will finally understand. anyhow, i had just come home from the movies. i've read some posts about how people can't go to the movies because they can't stand popcorn chewing or whatever. i don't seem to have this problem,usually. the sound effects are usually loud enough to block anything; however, last night i did manage to hear someone over the sound effects and i was pissed. so moving forward here, we arrived back home and i plugged in my ipod so that i wouldn't be able to hear my sister chew and then this segment came on and i was like WHOA! This is real, this is me! and yeah, blew my mind. > in fact, i called my mom right and away and told her about it, because she has told me time and time again to " get over it " and i would just be miserable. > > anyhow, as i already mentioned i can't stand chewing of any kind. usually i can tolerate someone chewing if their mouth is closed, but sometimes i just can't stand that either. sometimes, just looking at a person chew irritates me. i remember one time it was so bad that i wanted to cry. specifically, my brother is the one who i yell at the most. before i got my iPod i would just go somewhere else and eat. my sister can also be a trigger as well. sometimes i can't stand her chewing, sometimes more so than my brother. over recent years though, I've been growing more irritated with people outside of my family circle, and it's not just chewing anymore. all mouth sounds, kill me. it varies how irritated i get, but sometimes,even a person opening their mouth can just send me over the edge. > > i looked up information after the segment and found that people in your family may also be linked to have misophonia, which might explain why my sister gets just as mad whenever i sing or hum. she gets so enraged. i can even be singing quietly and she still gets so angry. maybe she has it too. on a milder case, she does dislike chewing food as well, just not as much as me. no one else in my family seems to have this problem though. For all you fellow members out there, do you have any family members of yours who have this condition as well??? > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 I also don't like poor grammar and feel compelled to constantly correct my boyfriends grammar when he uses incorrect English.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 Hi Darlene, So far, I think I’m the only one to try Lactobacillus rhamnosus, which is contained in some yoghurts. Scientific American reported anxiety reduction in lab mice, and it immediately helped me with my OCD “painâ€. I’m referring to the painful involuntary cringe portion of misophonia reaction, not the sound aversion. I avoid exposure so I’m not a good test subject. I buy it from Amazon as “Klaire Labs - Ther-Biotic Factor 1â€. Would you consider trying it? I advise googling it first for safety.

I also have OCD as do others who have Misophonia. However, there are some who don't have OCD or anything close to it. I've had doctors assume this is OCD and have been on meds for it. The meds helped my OCD, but did nothing for the sound issues. Not to say that it 'won't' help someone else, but for me it did not.

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2012 Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 I doubt that I will be trying this particular product (allergy to dairy products and no $) but I am very interested in the effect that a properly balanced gut flora has on the nervous system. There was a member here, who said she got a lot of relief from the GAPs diet (google it or SCD diet), which among other things can help increase the good gut flora and decrease the bad. But I think what one eats is important as well as taking the probiotics, but the diet unfortunately is a heck of a challenge!

Guest guest Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 Because my friend you have a very difficult situation and since we all know how awful this is even when we are not bedridden and not employede, I can only imagine how intense it must be for you. I personally would love to help to make things even just a little bit easier for you.Heidi Goodness. Why is everyone being so nice to me? Feels like it is my birthday or something.I haven't had time to look in to it any more since yesterday but it is definitely something I am interested in trying. I have an account at drugs.com and have all my medications entered in so I put in the name of this and searched and it said there were no known interactions, so it looks like it is fine for me to take. Do you always buy online, or can you find it local to you? I am just curious if stores would sell it in with the vitamins and other things. We have two stores in town and Walmart has a bigger selection than the grocery store. There are a few things that I have to order from the pharmacy at the grocery store since they don't carry it on the shelves. --------------------------------------------------------- ♥ "Hope is more than a word; it's a state of being.

I can follow Mike’s lead and have a bottle shipped directly to you from Klaire Labs, assuming you want to try them. If they help you we will all benefit.

Guest guest Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 :)Thank you. I wrote about the wonderful blessing you two gave me today in my CaringBridge. I am so excited and giddy--I feel like a little kid, but this is a huge thing for me! I am so excited to try it out and see how it helps me. --------------------------------------------------------- ♥ " Hope is more than a word; it's a state of being.

Guest guest Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 Hi , I searched Walmart online and neither product containing Lactobacillus rhamnosus (aka L. rhamnosus) showed it provided the 20 billion CFU that I take daily. I bought some from a brick and mortar store called The Vitamin Shoppe, but again, no 20 billion stated. Klaire Labs via Amazon is the best option I’ve seen. It is shipped cool in bubble pack, and says “refrigerateâ€, if that matters. Cheers, From: Sent: Tuesday, May 22, 2012 10:37 AM To: Soundsensitivity Subject: Re: Re: 20/20 segment Goodness.

Gel capsules are easier for my body to break down than a hard pill, so I may be able to just take the pill as long as it is in a gel capsule. I'll have to do a bit more searching when I have some more time. Thanks --------------------------------------------------------- ♥ "Hope is more than a word; it's a state of being.

It comes in a gelatin capsule so I twisted one open. It is a fine white powder that is tasteless. A pharmacist once told me to crack the capsule of a different medicine open and mix the contents with apple sauce. Does that help?
