Misophonia - What sounds can you simply not stand?

Sgt Hartman · 21-01-2020 08:21PM #1

I read up recently on misophonia, which is a condition where people simply cannot stand certain sounds. Examples include loud or sloppy eating, sneezing, drumming of fingers etc. For me it's loud and messy eaters, the sound of someone sloshing food around their mouths or smacking/sucking their lips is enough to make me want to shake with rage.

What sounds drive you utterly crazy??

I can't stand the sounds of people eating or drinking or "artists" vaping down the microphone when they're recording a podcast.

Sound of people farting

Political speak emphasing the future. Allergic reactions include unplugging the radio and throwing leaflets/ campaign letters into a roaring fire.

That sound of knives and forks scratching on plates

I hate opera singing , especially female soprano . Its stresses me

Crisp packets and sweet wrappers etc. Rant inducing properties..

Also misinformed or ignorant people holding court on elections

The "put on your seatbelt" sound on planes for incoming turbulence.

Excuse me?

Crunching snow gives me the shivery creepies, even if I imagine the sound. I am not sure if that is Misophonia though.

People chewing sets me off on a rage

JupiterKid · 21-01-2020 08:34PM

The sound of chalk, dusters or - the very worst - nails screeching on a blackboard. Shudder...

House and car alarms going off all day long.

jam_mac_jam · 21-01-2020 08:34PM

The snorting sound people make instead of blowing their noses. Makes me want to vomit.

Purple Mountain · 21-01-2020 08:35PM

Great.. Another madeie uppie condition.

Anything that comes out of a Bore's mouth.

Cardboard scraping off more cardboard. Especially that "double ply" corrugated cardboard. Makes me shiver just thinking about it.

Having to close a cardboard box where you have to fold cardboard flaps under other cardboard flaps and they scrape and scratch off each other makes my skin crawl. I won't do it unless absolutely necessary.

Sgt Hartman · 21-01-2020 08:38PM

I have to turn in the radio at mealtimes in my place to drown out the chewing noises

RobbingBandit · 21-01-2020 08:39PM

Repeated sniffing and the coughing of a seriously ill person in public places go home you are sick and I don't want to catch it.

TheValeyard · 21-01-2020 08:40PM

Fingernails on a board

FTA69 · 21-01-2020 08:45PM

People hawking up phlegm to spit.

theoldbreed · 21-01-2020 08:48PM

Someone picking at their nails. I can't deal with it.

Styrofoam. Gaaaaaah! Big pieces rubbing off each other like when you unpack a large printer.

21-01-2020 08:51PM

I'm pretty bad when it comes to egregiously bad eating. It can easily ruin a meal and leave me in a foul mood.

Apart from that, nothing really.

Bigbagofcans · 21-01-2020 08:54PM

Someone eating an apple, each crunch sounds obnoxious.

endacl · 21-01-2020 08:55PM

Chart music.

The snorting/clearing of their nose on a quiet dublin bus. Every 20 seconds. After they loudly snort it all back I just want to turn around and ask "So are you just going to swallow that or what?"

Ghetofarmulous · 21-01-2020 09:00PM

Eating noises and people biting their finger nails. I get sever anxiety. Can’t help it

If I watch food programmes and it has an uplclose of Paul ****ing Hollywood sloshing food around in his mouth it makes me want to flying knee the television in the face.

Im always find this reaction interesting. "Well, I don't experience it, so it must be made up".

What other madeie uppie conditions are there, as a matter of interest?

When you can hear peoples mouth sounds on the radio.
