anyone here with severe misophonia (sound hatred like being sent into a panic attack or strong aggression with hearing sounds like chewing or tapping or breathing)?

OMG yes! I thought about asking about this a few days ago here, but I thought "no one here is going to have this weird condition." Ive had it since I was 14, im 28 now. I think it's comorbid with OCD pretty often, but it's not researched much.

The sounds of my body moving get really really bad. Hypersensitivity can swoop in really fast and fuck everything up. Hearing my joints move, hearing myself breathe gets really bad too sometimes. The high pitch of computers or other pieces of electronics. Grinding teeth makes me almost cry. Oof

Ive had classes I literally could not pay any attenion to, because if people tapping and clicking pens. Gum hurts like knives. "Misokinesia", hatred of movement, bothers me too.

I don’t get panic, but I get EXTREMELY uncomfortable and have to “scratch” something when people wipe their feet on the carpet, and especially when they’re wearing socks. I cannot handle the sound. Literally getting goosebumps even thinking about it it’s so disgusting. I keep curling my toes too- I don’t like the feeling of it on my feet either. Don’t know if that’s exactly the same though haha. I definitely hate the sound of chewing and anything to do with mouths in general.

Chewing mainly...but also breathing or other sounds. If I’m really anxious and in a restaurant I’ve started shaking from the sounds of silverware and plates. People clicking their pens or tapping fingers in class has

thank goodness! this is horrible! i legit suddenly have the urge to burst into tears or throw things or yell the second i hear the smallest thing

IVE HAD PANIC ATTACLS FROM THAT I THOUGHT I WAS NUTS

It happened last night my room made grinds her teeth and I legit almost started crying

Yo people chewing w their mouth open. That shit nasty

I literally couldn’t wait to go to college a couple years ago because no matter how many times I told my sister I CAN HEAR YOUR MOUTH CHEWING PLEASE STOP WITH THE NOISES she never stopped. Was on the verge of tears too??

ughh yes!! i wanna scream omfg! also does someone putting their feet on the little rack below your desk bother you a ton? or just being able to feel your desk move because of the person behind you? makes me also want to cry

yess omg!! i hate when people take it personally ?

@gcg before I get excited lol- from what??

Dang it I thought you meant the sock thing! Guess I’m still nuts!?? (just kidding, no one take that seriously)

definitely! mealtimes and test taking ruin me

This is soooo horrible for me as well! My boyfriend is scared to eat around me and I feel so bad! I try and play it cool but if he chews something loud around me or gum my whole body gets hot and I get pissed - instantly ?
