I cope by using constant low-level (45dB) background noise throughout my home. Radio static, brownian noise on a loop, the app Rain Rain. It cuts out about 80-90% of my trigger sounds.
But I’m here to look for ways to cope with or deal with the 10-20% of trigger sounds that are loud enough to cut through my protective cocoon of good sound?
(But I suppose it would also help to understand what other people’s trigger sounds are, because I don’t have “classic” misophonia triggers.)
Lucky for me it’s only the sound of people chewing. Depending on the circumstances will determine how I cope. For instance, if I see it’s coming I will distance myself to a place it will no longer bothers me, that general means leaving the room. If that’s not an option, I hope there’s something I can chew on so the sound of my own chewing will mitigate the outside chewing sound.
Hi,
I’m usually triggered when my husband chews around me so I wear headphones or leave the room. Thankfully, he understands but not everyone does.
