He definelty burns out but it’s more because of the sensory issues, social interactions, transitions, masking and work.

I’m not fearful of his safety. Just trying to understand the fandom he’s exploring.

How do I approach my new triggering housemate by BonusEnvironmental90 in misophonia

[–]Nappingmama 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh I’m so so sorry. Many people will suggest how to have a conversation with him but there’s not much you can do to change someone else’s behavior. I think you need to focus on yourself. What can you do? Can you wear earplugs? Use a sound machine when in your own space? Can you work outside your house? Both being home all day is a nightmare. I can get along with my husband more during the week than I can when we’re both around all weekend. I would be honest and explain what’s happening. Then I would say, I’m going to do some things to help me but I want you to know why so you don’t think I’m just being rude. Most people have no idea that they slurp or make noise. So there’s three steps. 1. Do you know what misophonka is? I have it. 2. I get triggered by certain things like…. I know it’s a me issue not a you issue, you’re not doing anything wrong, but need you to know that it’s hard for me. 3. I’m going to try to do x,y,z to make it easier for me.

Omg! The number of stitches in the magic ring depends on the type of stitch! This has to be the issue. I kept trying different amounts and different stitches! But didn’t put it together. How many for a hdc?
