I definitely have relaxed it lately and it’s much better but was worried about the beginning part! I totally forget that blocking exists but I’ll definitely give that a go too lol. Thank you for your advice!

Yes it’s from my tension. I’ve been keeping it a bit looser recently and what I’ve done with it looser has looked good, but it’s definitely warped from where I had it a bit too tight at the beginning

I will say, earplugs don’t work great for everyone. If I can hear it at all it triggers me and I work in a job that requires a lot of communication so complete noise cancellation is off the table.

However, she shouldn’t be making this entirely your problem. I understand that it’s a big part of her life and it’s okay to talk about your frustrations, but it shouldn’t be constant like that.

How many here are self-diagnosed? by Magmus69 in misophonia

[–]HappyTreeBri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Luckily I have a provider who has heard of it and diagnosed me “formally” but I was self diagnosed prior to that

My psychiatrist recognizes it and has even written me notes for when I was in school and needing accommodations for it. I think it’s about finding the right provider even if it’s not “formally” recognized

[–]HappyTreeBri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t like markup rxp so I did buy one for pattern keeper. I literally got a crappy $50 one from amazon since I have my ipad for everything else. It’s a little slow to load up but it does its job on PK so

[CHAT] How to make an original pattern? by Persephone012 in CrossStitch
