I don't "diagnose myself" so that I have an excuse to be overdramatic and rude. In fact in public I've gotten ok at hiding it, I usually just clench my fists until I give myself marks or leave for " a bathroom break." It's not fake, it's a nervous disorder and it is excruciating.

You diagnosed yourself I never said so you could be rude. You are being overdramatic though.

Ok, sorry , I assumed you meant it that way.
If you think I'm overdramatic, fine, you can think that. But I know for a fact I'm not. In comparison with most people I am an extremely tolerant, calm person in most things. But when it comes to sounds and some visual triggers, it's unignorable.

I go nuts when people chew loudly or they scrape their fork between their teeth when taking a bite.
Fork scraping a plate. Errr


there's so much noise in the livingroom that i can't ignore it and it literally makes me want to cry, not exaggerating
My desk is right next to my dads
and he loves pistachios

Some of the things in StarHawk's quote do actually bother me a lot, but I'm not sure if I have this ''misophonia''.

If your not sure then chances are you probably don't. When I first saw the video I was 100% sure without a doubt.

I live in the living room and my sister likes to keep the light on while pacing with her music up loud. She also wears loud as forget shoes making it hard for me to sleep.

Wow thanks for sharing this. For years I have gotten so angry when someone chews loud. I honestly often have to leave the room because I can't put up with it any longer. I snapped at my dad one day while he was eating cereal and he thought I was insane :/

I had a similar situation, everyone always got mad at me and I didn't know what was going on.

I hate repetitive noises, I just cant stand the same noise over and over again unless I'm the one making it.
Also as for the chewing, every morning when I wake up (I sleep on the couch) there is always someone sitting there using the arm of the couch as a table and chewing like a damn cow.

i highly doubt this is a real condition or anything.

like i said, you guys probably just have a low tolerance for the noises and things people do.

i personally hate it when mexicans speak in spanish at 100 mph.

7)   Muffled voices or bass kicks  coming from a faraway room-- Depends on the context.
9)   Asian languages-- Hot.
11)   Dripping faucets-- I find this calming.
13)   The underdeveloped voices of children-- Again, depends on the context.
16) Young girls screaming with delight-- Hot.
17) "Like" or "um" after every word-- Yeah, that could get annoying.

And that's me.

Words that you hate:

CHUNKS.

"Let's turn the page and read this next chunk... How about we brown townyze this chunk..."

FUXKKXKXKXKXXKXKXKXKXK.

1) I will literally, without thinking, turn and glare at people if I can hear them chewing. I don't even notice I'm doing it sometimes.
6) If I have the option, I will half-run out of a room with an upset baby. Looking inconsiderate is better than the thoughts that hit my mind.

Living on a campus, I'm getting accustomed to various levels of singing, OOOHHHH-ing, laughing, and distant music, but I seriously lost my stuff about it a few times in the fall term.
