Guest guest Posted July 23, 2012 Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 Welcome to the group! If anything, I do not post much (regarding my daughter) but I have found this group to be a great place to turn to for ideas, encouragment, and assurance (when the doctors, friends, and even family members do not quite understand). ~M Hi everyone,Thank you for accepting me into your support group.I have a 13 year old daughter who shows many signs of Misophonia, especially towards me and her 10 year old twin sisters. I'm glad to actually hear it has a name, as the last 12 months have been a very frustrating time, we have been to see our GP and my daughter was referred to a psychologist, which to our distress didn't help as the psychologist has never heard of Misophonia... So here we are with our only tools, google and thankfully a support group Sent from my iPhone------------------------------------PLEASE BE AWARE THIS IS A STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL GROUP AND NO MESSAGES ARE TO BE USED FOR ANY PURPOSE OUTSIDE OF THE YAHOO GROUP MEMBERSHIP SITE OR REPRODUCED OR COPIED AND MAILED FOR ANY PURPOSE.

Guest guest Posted July 23, 2012 Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 This is just a suggestion but if she is having problems at school make an appointment with your Special Education Director ,,, discuss this condition and take as much information/documentation that you have to your meeting with them. You want your child to do well in school and have positive social interactions! You will have to push yourself into the system and become a strong advocate for your Daughter.

Guest guest Posted July 23, 2012 Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 From my experience, many do not take it seriously unless they know someone who has it. Even after I show the video of 20/20 to ppl, (including a very close Doctor friend of our family) the reactions are that they don't really understand. Thank goodness my daughter goes to a private school where the teachers are more than caring. They took a clock down, moved her away from the windows where the birds chirp, and have an open door policy where if she is bothered to please let them know ASAP. (especially during testing). Family life is difficult....you learn to cope, it's trying to keep everyone happy. It's teaching the miso daughter how to react, and to learn the triggers before a bad reaction takes place. It's informing my husband (so he knows this is real) from time to time, and it's letting extended family know so as they can accomadate her if we visit. I tell her it is like a disability in a way...you must learn coping strategies and you can do this. I try to stay positive, I let her know we believe her, and we will support her, but we cannot make extreme changes. She must learn to adjust as well. Hoping for a cure, and hoping for better ways to cope.Hang in there mom!M Thank you, but school luckily is not an issueHer report cards are wonderful, she enjoys school!It's just at home when it seems to flare, with mostly her Sisters and myself.

Guest guest Posted July 23, 2012 Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 Thanks M,I'm lucky in the sense that my family is supportive,It was actually my mum that found MisophoniaOn google and then she watched 20/20 and showed me.My daughter (being a teen) will not always walk awayAs we try and tell her to do. I'm in the process ofTrying to gather information so I can sit down with herAnd try and explain to her that their are otherPeople with this condition.I am the same in regards to letting her know We can't make major changes, she can't silenceThe world she has to work at coping and walking away as well.Sent from my iPhone From my experience, many do not take it seriously unless they know someone who has it.

It's an overview of what we have. It also says this, which I believe is the question most of us are asking, "What is the cause": "Aage R.
