Misophonia, a disorder where people are triggered by chewing sounds, and often have a violent and rage-like reaction, is a very real disorder.
such as hate, anger, anxiety, rage, and resentment. There has long been disagreement over the idea that misophonia is a legitimate psychiatric disorder. For years, I had simply thought I was honestly losing my mind and had some weird tic or sensitivity to crunching and chewing sounds.
But over the years, it got worse and worse, and combined with the general parenting anxieties we all have, not only was I was unable to control my reactions to all the chewing and other sound triggers, but the library of offensive triggering sounds actually grew. Now it was all kinds of repetitive clicking noises, all foods, and small things like pencil tapping or a ceiling fan swirling.
After spending a day with a very patient and compassionate group of speech/hearing and audiology disorders PhD candidates, I came out having learned much more about the disorder than I thought I would. Also, I was given some tips and insight so as to better get a grasp on my misophonia and what all of this means to our family.After a myriad of standard hearing tests, turns out I could hear stuff that was happening across the street.
Well, I did drag myself there on rare occasions, but I had to find a seat totally far away from any people, which meant I was stuck in the front row or the back row. It was suggested I ask the theater to borrow one of their assisted hearing devices, which means I could use their headphones to listen to my movie while blocking out surrounding triggers.I felt a huge sense of validation when I left the audiologist’s office that day.
