that's really interesting, i had never heard of this before.

i have a pretty low tolerance for background noise in general (i can't block it out easily) but i wouldn't call it a problem, i just prefer quiet.
a lot of people tend to express irritation at people eating with their mouth open.
however, the fact that you find doing everyday things really difficult because of it, sounds like it's a geniune issue

Not just me, a lot of people, actually. If you watch the 20/20 episode on it, there is an example of a teenage girl who can barely be near her mother, because her mother constantly does her trigger sounds. It's very sad. Or mothers who have it and are afraid they won't be able to eat with their children when they start eating crunchy food. Or the man who can't work with his business partner very well because he triggers him a lot.

There are different levels of misophonia. At worst I'm a nine, and it's very, very hard to deal with, because I can't block it out. I work in retail, so I do my best to grit and bear it, but it's so painful for me. I can't sit in the breakroom unless I have my MP3 player. Sometimes, if I forgot to bring it, or the battery dies, I have to just sit in a stall in the bathroom until my breaks are over :/ It's...something I would love for there to be a cure for.

Out of curiosity - have you ever been diagnosed with a mood or anxiety disorder? I just found out about this today because of this post and made the connection between misophonia and my anxiety disorder. Apparently cognitive behavioral therapy can be very helpful, but unfortunately I know how difficult it is to find a psychologist who specializes in that..

I've never been diagnosed with anything, no. When I was 13, up to about 21 (I'm twenty four now) I used to randomly have panic attacks. They'd randomly happen at night, but they happened less and less, and I haven't had one for a few years now.

It could be related!

Wow. I'm the complete opposite. O_o

I can't stand quiet. I have have to SOMETHING going on in the background, even if I don't really pay attention to it. So I usually have a movie or my iPod playing when I'm doing stuff.
