Re: What other things make you angry frequenty?

NoNoNoMy problems with sound sensitivity started at the same time that two other neurological conditions started. I had gastric bypass surgery and became deficient in two vitamins which caused permanent neurological damage.. peripheral neuropathy and postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome. That's when these problems started as well.

Are you an angry person in general?

Do you have or had social anxiety?

Have any of your parents been sensitive to noise?

How do you think it started?

----------------------------------------------------------

In my case there are other things that makes me angry that might or might not be related to misophonia like seeing someone texting all the time or playing with his smartphone.

I had social anxiety as a teenager. It was not so awful to stop me from sports or going to parties but was still very annoying. I worked very hard and I feel great now in my 30s. I go for interviews with no problem at all and even make jokes or talk to everybody I choose to. But I should confess that it did not come easily and as fast as I expected. If I can somehow cure misophonia, that would be more that awesome.

And yes, my mom is also sensitive about noise. I can't say she has misophonia but I believe the reason I concentrate on these noises so much comes from her at least partly. My younger brother used to torture me with making repetitive noises when we were kids and it was his defense mechanism.

So far white noise has been my best solution, but I believe ignoring things is not the solution and I am hoping for a cure.

I guess Im angry in general...though it isnt that bad as it is when I am surrounded by sounds I cannot tolerate. ANd yes I have had social and do have social anxiety. I dislike crowds in close proximity such as bars. I dont mind if the crowds are moving, ex traffic moving fluidly....but I get agitated when people bump into you rub up against you that kind of thing... None of my parents are bothered by noise. My son is bothered by noise. In class when he couldnt concentrate because of noise he destroyed his desk. This was in 2nd grade. He had also ripped apart a workbook. He and I both also have ADHD/ODD. And I have NO IDEA how this started but my earliest recolection was sitting in a high chair and being completely irritated by my father eating cheerios.

I have social anxiety as well - wonder how many others have that along with Misophonia

I'm not an angry person at all. I have no social anxiety. My mom is sensitive to noise. My maternal grandmother hates gum chewers. My paternal aunt has Misophonia. It kicked it around 8 but started with Hyperacusis first to fluorescent lights. I personally believe its a nuerological disorder and our brains develop incorrectly crossing/connecting our sound to our limbic system.Heidi Sent from my iPhone

I am far from being an angry person in general. It's only the sounds (or rather

my reaction to them) that make me angry.

I have had anxiety since I was a kid but was not diagnosed until my late 20's.

I have general anxiety and panic disorder. I also have slight OCD.

My mother despises dogs barking, gum popping and a few other sounds, although

her reaction is not as severe as mine. My sister and one niece also have it but

again, not as bad as me. There have been discussions that possibly my

grandmother had it as well.

Mine stared around age 12 when suddenly my fathers eating drove me batty. He

wasn't even what I consider a loud eater either. I think it's neurological in

nature... something a bit off or mis-wired in the brain. I use noise I like to

combat noise I don't. I found a great little recording of an air conditioner

humming... like the ones in hotels. It sounds a lot like brown noise and I love

it. Also I enjoy the sounds of rain, thunder, frogs, and waterfalls/streams. I

also use CBT to help me rationalize things. Those things help, but don't fix it.

Some days I have a much harder time than others.
