Re: sensory integration vs. misophonia

[Guest guest]

Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), which used to be called SI, usually involves

multiple senses. For the sound part of it, it's very similar to misophonia. SPD

people tend to have a particular problem with loud noises, as well as certain

sounds. Since I have SPD, I think of misophonia as just one part of it. I cannot

handle loud noises, gum snapping/cracking, or when people suck air between their

teeth. I also can't wear wool or any clothing tags against my skin, and I have a

definite problem with flourescent lights.

Your mom sounds like she knows what she's talking about. I wouldn't worry about

whether you have SPD or misophonia...it sounds like both, but I don't think they

are mutually exclusive.

There is therapy for people with SPD. They mainly include sensoried that aren't

sound. I also can't sleep with light or vegue light. I have been in many fights

with my sister over this. She needs a bright night light.

That's true I think, which is why I don't have any therapy for it. My biggest

sensory issue is auditory. Poor you! A bright nightlight? Ugh! I definitely

couldn't handle that one. I'd be arguing, too!

I also use to share a room with both my brother and sister. My brother snores

and grinds his teeth. My sister snores. My dad gave me his headphones used for

airports and shooting guns after I strangled my brother for snoring. I then

moved to wax earplugs. I got some stuck in my ear. I then use foam earplugs and

still do. I also habe visual sensitivity. I am doomed because my sister is sick

that means SNIFFLEs, CLEAR THROAT, and COUGHING.
