I would like to say hello to everyone. I just found out the other day that that

what I have suffered for many years is an actual condition. I had never heard of

misophonia. I heard it on the news and I was like " WOW! " I immediately looked it

up and found this group. I hope to learn about things that can help me control

my anger when sounds bother me.

I'm sorry. I have been told that I am making it up countless times. Someone told

me that I can't just be scared of everything. I wanted to punch her hard. It is

a HUGE deal. It has effected so many peoples lives. It has made people isolate

themselves. I bet it has made people suicidal. Always be strong fellow

sufferers.

I too just found out. It's a relief to know that I'm not toally crazy or alone. This problem has run my life since childhood and is getting worse as I get older causing me to become more and more isolated and unable to go and do many things.

Hello and welcome!

You are surrounded by loving, helpful and very smart people on this

forum. I have received so much support on this forum for which I am

forever grateful. I don't suffer from the condition but my 14 year old

daughter does. She suffers greatly with it. She really can't handle

it at all and is getting worse each and everyday. We have tried

therapy and medication with no success. We are beginning DBT therapy

and neurofeedback beginning this week. Like you, my daughter's

condition started with me as her biggest trigger. I hope you have had

a chance to read through the messages to help you learn new ways to

cope with this terrible condition. You are not alone and it helps

knowing there are others fighting to find a cure or a way to live with

Misophonia.

whistling (v. bad reaction), gum chewing and cracking, snoring, tapping

fingers, clicking pens. My reaction is usually to leave the room, asking

the person to stop, and also self harm (I bite my fingers/hands on my

right hand, the skin is now very very leathery).

eats, this is my earliest memory of feeling the anger/rage and the need

to escape, this was when I was 6 so I have had this for 20 years and not

know about it.

symptoms?
