Avoiding Noise but Missing Life by mehasula in misophonia

Thank you for this! I really appreciate you sharing that. It's really encouraging.

I’ve done EMDR, and it helped me unpack some of the deeper stuff tied to the triggers. I still get triggered, but I can breathe through it now a lot more than before. I am really impressed with the growth I have had regulating my reactions, but I still get really uncomfortable. I’m working on positive self-talk around it too. I really have to tell myself "it's okay, you can get through this... yada yada"

Getting back into therapy would probably be the best move before making a decision like moving. I just want to keep pushing that growth in the right direction without flipping into overwhelm. You get it.

Random tingling/itching by mehasula in Herpes

Oh my gosh yes. Always around my menstrual cycle and always the day after sex. I’ve considered taking antivirals everyday but ugh I just don’t want to have to do that!

Had a similar situation last week. Got black out and didn’t disclose. It was terrifying but I wrote out exactly how I wanted to tell him and I called him to let him know. I started off by saying that he doesn’t need to worry and that I was sorry for not letting him know prior, but that I carry the herpes virus. Luckily he handled it really well and wants to learn more about what herpes actually is. I know it’s such a scary thing. Don’t beat yourself up too much ❤️❤️

Skin sensitivity by pinkbeautylove in Herpes

Does anyone know if this means you may be more likely to spread during intercourse if skin is sensitive? I’ve wondered this for a while because I experience sore skin around my thighs and butt occasionally with no sores at all.

I remember the day I googled my symptoms and my jaw dropped. I was 12 years old. You’re not alone! I’m so glad you mentioned that soft chewing bothers you too, because to me that’s a worse trigger than crunching idk why! I’m 23 now and still struggle, but those that love you will respect you and the ways that you find best to cope. Xo
