Any Misophonia sufferers?

Loud keyboard typists and people who chew loudly are driving me absolutely nuts. There is no escape. I can’t wear headphones all day every day. FML

Lol. You would love my mechanical keyboard.

I have it. It’s pretty much just get used to suffering, sorry to say. I can empathize, but that’s about it

Rght now I'm talking on my phone, and having miso soup.

Sorry, I can't hear you over my Model M and my gum chewing.

I’m in the same boat. As soon as some fatty starts gobbing down food at their desk I gotta throw on the headphones. I don’t understand how these fully grown adults were never taught to chew with their mouth closed, it’s disgusting and super distracting.

It also seems to be a Chinese thing to eat with their mouth open...

Yea.. I got a few Chinese buddies at work (one on my team) who are second gen Chinese and all eat ridiculously loud. When we eat lunch together I just put up with it

I had to switch teams. SDM chewing was so loud, even through headphones.

When my horrible tinnitus began, I became obsessed with listening to it. As a result I had horrible hyperacusis for 8 months. The hyperacusis became even more debilitating. I still have the horrible tinnitus now, over 3.5 years. It will never stop. Misophonia is nothing compared to these.

So sorry......

I have the same problem. Try using 3m sound blockers. You wear them like a headset - but deafening silence.
