#misophonia help

[misophoniatroubles]

the first time i heard about misophonia was thanks to matpat’s film theory on the grinch (makes a lotta sense btw) so thanks matpat and steph (who actually has it, same triggers as me actually). thanks for helping me realize I’m not broken or crazy. it helped more than you could ever know.

i’ll miss ya

it's crazy finding out you're autistic as an adult bc then you start to notice the ways it affects you and has affected you throughout life

and then it becomes a hyperfixation bc you're like "omg this makes so much sense now" and you start feeling a bit better about yourself knowing that there's an explanation to everything

#.bdo #autism #''panic attack disorder'' they have all been full-on meltdowns #which is just as much of a reason that I stopped working as my chronic pain #bc the last job i had i quit in the middle of a phone call #bc the lights and sounds on top of the problem solving on top of my ADHD were Too Much #i was also incorrectly diagnosed with both bipolar type 1 and BPD #it was the PTSD mixed with everything else like my post-partum depression and psychosis #found out that the ''bipolar'' was just me being happier when i have my pain meds #and getting everything done in those couple of weeks where i felt better (''mania'') #and of course more depressed when i'm in more pain bc i can't not notice it #and then also my period really fucks me up too and i get extremely angry for 3-7 days straight #but anyway #i noticed how i stim and how the way i think specifically in patterns and numbers #i've always had really bad texture issues w both food and fabric #i have misophonia and can also feel certain noises (ESPECIALLY mouth noises)(ESPECIALLY if it's repetitive) #it makes me feel like i need to make the noise too #and half the people in my family have vocal stims #ik they can't help it but it sends me into panic attacks & meltdowns #i can hear electricity on top of my tinnitus #i get socially overwhelmed easily bc of all the masking #i talk to myself and make my own noises when im alone #i have repetitive thoughts that will cycle for weeks sometimes months at a time #so i think the ocd is comorbid #bc ever since i was like 5 i've had this pattern that i HAVE to tap on things every now and then or it drives me insane #i get intense hyperfixations for months or years #there's just a lot i notice about myself now

Is it still murder if the person won’t stop coughing?

#that sounds like a personal problem #I’m joking of course #but oh my god #misophonia #I know she can’t help it #so there’s no point in her knowing it is driving me insane #It’ll just make her feel worse #and we’ve been stuck in this house for three days #i can’t escape #help

BTW this blocks out every misophonia trigger ever!!! I can't hear sniffing and it's only at like 35 decibels if you have misophonia and are trying to protect your hearing/not hear any noise except music to drown out triggers these work really efficiently without damaging your hearing since you don't have to turn them up loud! they've been a lifesaver I use them during school all the time

my kingdom for a mechanical fidget with really satisfying and varied haptic feedback and ZERO NOISES

#i dont want squishies or divets or spins i want mechanical feedback that you feel in your bones but does Not make me anxious by being loud! #i just got a neat one but unfortunately its got BOMBASTIC INESCAPABLE CLICKING even when i handle it gently like what usually works #my posts #where's that post that's like ''misophonia gang make some noise! oh wait oh no oh fuck'' #(this is a silent cry for help if anyone has silent mechanical stim toys pleas tell me)

Y'know, misophonia is probably my worst enemy in school. Like sure anxiety and depression are up there, like really up there, but misophonia makes me wanna cry, punch, throw up, run away and hide all at the same time just because someone decided to hum a little tune. Whistling is fifty times worse!

It feels like everywhere I go, it's just whistling or humming or something that triggers my misophonia and makes me anxious and nauseous and mad and just everything...

I even asked one of my teachers to talk to the class about the whistling and ask them to stop because I couldn't concentrate, and she talked to them, but they just continued anyway.

I'm just so tired of being in fight or flight mode almost 24/7 because of something so insignificant.

Me trying to pay attention in a meeting with my boss when his mic quality/mouth noises makes me want to scream and cry and tear the computer to pieces:

#please just stop talking #I mean I was already scraping my feet across the carpet and probably pulling stupid faces #misophonia #actually misophonic #adhd #if anyone knows of something I could use to filter out the noise it would be helpful #I've tried having white noise in the background it doesn't help much

the sounds my grandfather makes while chewing gum make me want to commit unspeakable crimes against humanity

#i already have misophonia with eating/chewing sounds in general #but that man is on an entirely different level with the atrocious sounds he seems intent on making #doesn't help that the scent of the cinnamon gum also makes me sick to my stomach #being stuck in a car with him is always a perfect recipe for creating my personal sensory hell #stochastic ramblings #autistic #misophonia

[analternatefictionkin]

I realized that I have a Billy Lenz kinshift whenever I’m having negative emotions and oh boy does that mean my Billy kinshifts are often T-T

#My bus and school in general makes my life shit #mainly because like misophonia #negative #kinshift #fictionkin #billy lenz fictionkin #slasher fictionkin #someone help #I’m about to fucking cry

Does anybody know if the calmer flare earplugs work or not? I have misophonia and was thinking of buying them but I wanted to know if they were legit or not first. 🤷‍♂️

Did it really take us five fucking years to figure out that the reason why we inherently hate podcasts is because we have fucking audio processing disorder and can't understand half the shit they're saying, and that listening to it while reading text or just reading the text on its own doesn't work because we have intense adhd and without stimulating visuals we have no fuckin reason to even bother trying to give this story we already don't care about any attention?

#we already knew about the auditory processing disorder we're very familiar with it and always use subtitles when watching things #its fucking astounding that it took us this long to make this connection #of course we hate podcasts! theres nothing fucking here for us! #sprinkle on some misophonia and some 'can FEEL acting and is made uncomfortable by it' and youve got active aversion #before anyone tries 'talking us though' that second one. it doesnt matter how good the actor is. #what we pick up on is the patterns and intentional tone #actors believing in their role and being passionate about what theyre saying helps soften the discomfort but we can still feel it there #scrips are the fucking bane of our existence they bring out the worst of that shit

The one good thing my sensory processing disorder did for me was stop me from using tiktok.

Like for the longest time I was wondering why I had such an extreme dislike towards the app while everyone else loved it and then I realized: There's a lot of sounds on there that could potentially trigger me. In other sites I get to pick and choose the kind of video I watch without it automatically playing, which helps because spontaneous noises are more likely to trigger an overload for me than things I can predict. But in tiktok I have to switch immediately from one video to the next without knowing what I'll get so it's like playing Severe Discomfort Russian Roulette.

Anyway this makes me The Chosen One btw. When all social media platforms inevitably become tiktok clones I will be the only one left standing. My productivity levels will make me unstoppable and the world will be mine to conquer. They were fools to not foresee this.

#not to mention a lot of tiktoks are deliberately overstimulating which doesn't help #Even if they fix it though I'm never gonna download that accursed app the worst takes I've ever seen all come from there #sensory processing disorder #misophonia #i mean i guess it counts they're similar
