It’s dinner time. You prepare for battle. You put the spaghetti down and find yourself tensing up. It doesn’t take long. One slurp. One fork scraping teeth. The screaming begins. The doors get slammed. Dinner is over. This happens every night. But, it’s not just dinner. There are many other sounds that cause your child to rage out of control. Misophonia has been destroying the peace in your house. Misophonia triggers are everywhere.

Misophonia triggers aren’t about noises being perceived as too loud (hyperacusis), it is about pattern-based noises triggering the limbic system, causing suffers to instantly feel rage, disgust and anxiety when exposed to certain noises.

So what does that mean for you and for your child? It means patterned noises like tapping, chewing, clicking (common misophonia triggers) can turn a switch on in your child’s brain causing them to feel instant rage, disgust or anxiety.

It isn’t pretty and it isn’t fun. Let me teach you what Misophonia is and how to help a child who struggles with it. Not only do I treat Misophonia in my practice, I suffer silently with it as well…
