Does Some Certain Kind Of Sounds Upset You? Here Is Why by michaelo2(m): 7:31am On Mar 21, 2017
If everyday noises like a dripping tap or someone chewing or clicking a pen makes you irritated or panic, in my case metals clanking together, you might suffer from
Misophonia , literally "hatred of sound," (Miso- (hatred) phonia (sound) ) was proposed in 2000 as a condition in which negative emotions, thoughts, and physical reactions are triggered by specific sounds. It is also called "select sound sensitivity syndrome" and "sound-rage."

What causes misophonia?
Misophonia is a neurological disorder in which auditory (and sometimes visual) stimuli are misinterpreted within the central nervous system. However, misophonia and what causes misophonia is still something of a mystery. Although people may have suffered from misophonia for many years, it has only been recognized as a medical condition since the 1990's.

Signs and Symptoms
If you have a mild reaction, you might feel:
Anxious
Uncomfortable
The urge to flee
Disgust
In my case, I get goosebumps.

If your response is more severe, the sound in question might cause:
Rage
Anger
Hatred
Panic
Fear
Emotional distress
A desire to kill or stop whatever is making the noise
Skin crawling
Suicidal thoughts

The disease can put a cramp in your social life. You might avoid restaurants or eat separately from your spouse, family, or roommates. Or worse, you could act on what you feel. You might attack the person who’s making the sound -- physical or verbally -- cry, or run away from the situation.
Over time, you may respond to visual triggers, too. Seeing someone get ready to eat or put something in their mouth might set you off.

How Do You Live With Misophonia
As for me, I dont use two metals together (like a plate and spoon or cup and spoon) and if I see you using it, I walk away. While some try to mask the trigger-sounds with music, others simply try to avoid them. Depending on the severity, it can have serious consequences for people with misophonia. The condition might keep patients from building-up relationships, engaging in social activities or even leaving the house.

People suffering from misophonia often feel alienated and misunderstood because others might write them off as hysterical or overly-sensitive. Often it helps to see a doctor to get a diagnosis as proof that you are not just making it up. Your doctor can refer you to different kinds of therapy. Even just to talk about your condition might be helpful.

Do share with someone, it might be helpful

The one that angers me most is when people grind or crush their teeth together unknowingly when sleeping.

So being irked by the annoying and gross sound some uncultured people make while eating is a disorder
Well, I'd rather have that disorder than to be orderly and condone that rubbish.

If i'm asleep and a cockroach or a rat is moving about, i'll hear it and won't rest until I kill it. I hate it when people drag their feet on the floor while walking too.
I hate that throaty sound some guys do before spitting. It irritates me.
Sudden noise scares me, it could be banging of the door or dropping something heavy suddenly. It makes my heart beat really fast. I usually beg my friends not to surprise me with anything because it is always too much to handle. Don't Surprise me, Don't try to sneak in on me, or close my eyes with your fingers and ask me to guess who's there. I'll go crazy in less than 2.5seconds.
