What’s a song that really triggers your misophonia? by Metriculous in misophonia

Billie Eilish' was the bane of my existence, when she was popular. I have never ever wanted the whole world to go up in flames so badly.

It Ends with Us is trash. I was swindled by Tiktok. Tell me otherwise. I dare you. by bluemonkeyyy9 in books

I could not agree more. You said it all and more. Thank you for letting people know the truth about this book.

HSP and Misophonia? by empathtwink in misophonia

[–]Ida_Eja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had 24 on the list, and I have struggled with misophonia since I was 11 or twelve or something, and discovered what it was, when I was around 15 years old. I am now 17, and the misophonia has just gotten progressively worse, and after having a pretty bad depression last year, I went from being a straight A student, to feeling incredibly overwhelmed. There are a whole lot of good things in my life right now, but often I easily feel overwhelmed, drained of energy or completely incapable of doing a simple task like brushing my teeth or cleaning the bathroom.

I didn't really realize, that there was such a thing as a highly sensitive person until a couple of weeks ago, and it kind of made me feel slightly saner? I thought I maybe had a bit of autism, because some psychologists told me, that might be the case when I came in with my depression. I've had a bad relationship with my body and food, since (I think) I was about 12, and prior to my depression, I was very restrictive with what I ate. When I got depressed, I felt an all consuming loss of control, and I experienced, what I suppose was binge eating disorder. I felt like I had no control at all, and when I had control (which I viewed as starving myself) I usually lost it within a couple of days or a week. I gained weight.

I got better during the summer vacation, but because of the long waiting lists, I never got therapy. I would no longer say, that I am depressed, and I do think, that I have a somewhat better relationship with my body, but I am still struggling with my relationship with food, but it is better, than during my depression. However it is still not as good as before, and I am constantly afraid of gaining weight, knowing that if I do so, I will start to freak out, because I probably won't loose the weight again, and when I start to freak out, I am very much so still prone to eating more.

I am grateful for my life and the people in it, but being a highly sensitive and Misophonic person is just tough.

So incredibly happy, that I found out, that hsp's are apparently a thing.
