I just can't do anything about it. The rage consumes me, I feel almost possessed, and on the verge of crying out of helplessness....

[bandu]

Finally I found what I was looking for: fear of noise. Whenever there is thumping noise from upstairs, people playing loud music or chatting specially at night times that triggers me. I feel helpless, get stressed, consistently anxious about the noise may start again, even after it is over. I hold my breath and cant concentrate or sleep even hours after that.

Any noise from any neighbors ever (especially music with bass, talking, moving furniture, cars, anything) makes my heart start racing and makes me hate being in any home - I live in downtown Chicago and it’s ALWAYS noisy. Worst of all, I’ve become the neighbor that everyone hates and all my family thinks I’m high-maintenance.

Malcolm's story is not typical. People with misophonia *cannot* control our reactions, and applying these principles do *not* work. We're talking about a pathological response to these trigger sounds, not mere annoyance. It's a sickness, not merely a condition. I've had this since I was 7 and I'm now 59. Up until as recently as the late aughts, it was seen as a character flaw; even now, not everyone we know has gotten that memo. Some of us don't even have the words to describe how terribly this affects our lives. There is no "overcoming" misophonia.

I stamp my foot when I hear loud breathing and chewing with an open mouth it even triggers me if I can‘t hear it but I just feel it

[DCLsMusic]

Sometimes I get so stressed, depressed and angered by little noises that I have considered puncturing my own eardrums... misophonia is one of the most overlooked conditions there is and it is pure torture.

[smilerx]

My triggers are loud chewing but mostly smacking. It doesnt matter who makes the noise or when...It never leaves me! Unless you have misophonia you wont understand how hard it is to live with. Having said that, i do appraciate you sharing this video

It becomes hard to avoid when one of the worst triggers is breathing, rather more obnoxious breathing, that's worse. My mum breathes really loud, I've been on vacation spending the last 4 days only with her and when we're in the hotel room or another quiet place and all I hear is her breathing, I feel like crying, I feel angry, I wanna scream and punch something, or sometimes I wanna kill her, usually I isolate myself in my room and I can not wait to do that again soon

Neighbours TV....central heating like living in a prison of noise sometimes. I've moved home, prayed for deafness, considered suicide. This video helped and I'm getting help for this. Peace and love to all my fellow sufferers

[aigneisEve]

At this point any kind of noise gets on my nerves, especially at night, I get so angry when I'm woken up that I can't get back to sleep though I'm extremely tired. When I'm awake it's chewing, any mouth noise drives me crazy ... And the neighbors ... I hate the neighbors, especially when they walk and move furniture around. It feels like a physical agression, it's like someone is beating me up. I'm mentally and physically exhausted.

[AdeptPenguin]

I use headphones all day with 12 hour rain sounds on in the background because if I hear any of my triggers I might actually lose my mind. Sleep is impossible without them

[ioanakat]

Misophonia has affected my life so much. I lost my boyfriend because of it. I lost the relationship with my mother. She thinks I am rude whenever I have to cover my ears or scratch something just to make the "pain" go away. Doesn't matter how much you try to explain. It still looks like you're the crazy one. And it does make me feel crazy. If I could see myself from the outside and see how I act whenever I hear a trigger I would be so embarrassed. Not only do I wish this would be studied more and recognized as an actual disorder, but I wish other people would be made aware of it's existence.

[mannoubouba]

i developped misophonoia since childhood . i was raised in an abusive household where my so called mother chew like a cow and a father slams doors and stamps the elephant feet. i m 45 now and i still can t stand those noises !

[MrKennedy]

I think I have misophonia from my downstairs neighbours.

The sound of their TV or talking loudly on the phone gives me a fight or flight response. My heart starts thumping in my chest and I get so stressed out.

When they are out or the TV is off, I can't relax because I'm wondering when it's going to start up again.

It's an awful existence.

[GiveMeCoffee]

The worst one for me is stepping noises, especially the ones coming from an upper floor...

[equestrianamy]

I’m sick of having this. I’m only ten and I can’t remember the last time I haven’t cried or shouted.I get super angry and then I start crying so much .My brother likes to talk to his friends but when he talks and I’m in another room I can’t stand it.He clicks, talks, chews, taps and makes so many annoying noises that I can’t stand.Its so much worse with people closer to me. In school I’m fine but when I’m alone with my friends or family it gets so bad and I want to scream.I feel really bad because nobody understands and they think I just like to be mean or rude but I don’t. I just want to be normal.

[bobsmith]

*My theory on misophonia:* If you grow up in a dysfunctional family where you are in a situation (ex. at the dinner table) and there is constantly someone screaming/criticizing/abusing, your brain unconsciously pairs the anger and rage you feel during that situation with the sound occurring at the same time (breathing, smacking, coughing, etc.) If this happens at a young age, your brain does not develop properly and the link between the anger and the sound never goes away. It will ruin your social life and work life (you may not be able to function at work). This disease is one of the worst forms of mental illness and will ruin your life.

I can’t eat food with family anymore, at work people wisening I ask them do not do that I’m ready kill them, cose me stress.Just tipping here makes me crazy.Children screaming outside or people talking under my door outside, I can’t deal.Gum, chips, soda drinking, I can go on and on.I try defocus but get more angry.All I can do summer go to the garden and woods .Nothing helps, I’m 61 now and have this from age 11.I think beside flying to the Moon spend money to finding cure, so many people have this condition.

[HandbagzAtDawn]

I remember my Grandad hated anyone eating crisps. It didn't bother me when I was a little girl
However, the older I have got the more I started to dislike certain sounds like crisp eating. Barking dogs, dripping taps, ppl chewing gum and scraping of knives and forks on plates when eating...YUK
I have even got angry at time knowing it's not normal to feel such enragement and have left the room to escape it.
Eating out can become a nightmare

[NataLookCheerful]

I’ve been struggling since I was 16, my trigger is chewing. Once my boyfriend was just joking with me and he started to chew on my ear for FUN and I bursted into tears... I really want to overcome it because it ruins my life and harms people I love
