This week I’m talking to Melody, an artist living in Israel. I haven’t talked to enough people outside of North America or Europe so this was really cool. It’s a really interesting conversation because she talks about some unusual triggers and coping mechanisms due to her problems handling sound volume and vibrations more generally.

Another reminder the Misophonia Association Convention is coming up, totally virtual this year October 8 through the 10th. All the speakers are up on their website and Facebook page. Links in the show notes on how to get access or just google for the Misophonia Association convention.

If you were expecting this episode a couple days ago my apologies, I got over extended on a number of projects that I’m trying to finish off by the end of summer and had to slip this week’s episode. I assure you we’ll be back on schedule every Wednesday next week. I’m particularly bummed because Wednesday my guest’s birthday, so a very happy belated birthday to Samantha, a longtime listener of the show and I can’t wait to get to her story. 

Reminder the Misophonia Association Convention is coming up, totally virtual this year October 8 through the 10th. Lots of great speakers, plus yours truly. Links in the show notes on how to get access or just google for the Misophonia Association convention.

In the vein of last week’s episode with Malya, here Brianna and I talk about the support system she has in place and how she got there, her supportive parents, her boyfriend and her friends circle.

Malya is a high school student in Utah. A lot of students, and parents of students write in wondering about how to survive at school with miso. Malya is a strong advocate for herself at school and has great support from her family. She does some work for an amazing youth mental health advocacy organization called Hope Squad. She talks about her tools and techniques, plus how she explains it to friends, and family. She also talks about some treatments that we haven’t covered yet on the podcast, specifically neurofeedback, and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing). Some links on those below. 

 
We’re getting closer to this year’s Misophonia Association Convention, this year online-only October 8 through the 10th. I’ll be speaking along with many other more interesting speakers about the latest Misophonia news. Links in the show notes on how to get access or just google for the Misophonia Association convention. 

Shout out to a business on Misolist - this week it’s SolitudeJude Ceramics. Fellow misophone Jude Mortensen makes ceramics and other art along with teaching pottery classes in San Marcos CA.

Christos is yet another resident of England, though originally from Greece. We talk about everything from metalcore music, telling our friends and partners about miso, anxiety attacks, mandatory army duties in Greece, and how to badly injure your hand when punching a door after a trigger. 

I want to do a shout out from Misolist again, this week it’s RescueSquad Design, a Creative Services Agency with 25 years of experience in theatre production and directing, writing, design, eBook and print publishing, events, artifact crafting, experience creation, and much more. We especially enjoy bizarre and unusual creative projects. They are one of many misophone-owned businesses you can find at Miso List.

Some of you may be familiar with Dorian after she posted a beautiful, raw Instagram Story @dorianlouise where she talked about her misophonia publicly for the first time. It got a great reaction and hopefully inspired others to speak out and share their experiences. I immediately wanted to get her on the show and we were able to finally chat a couple months ago. 

A couple quick notes, just a reminder that the Misophonia Association convention is happening online on October 8. They have posted more speakers on the website, so please check it out and register if you want to hear some great talks about the latest research, treatment, community building, and coping advice. I’ll be talking about this podcast and the community that’s been building around it.  

And one last thing I want to give a shout out to 6.21.3.11 apparel, a new clothing line co-founded by Kristen, back from episode 5 of season 1. Everything available on the site features anti-racist messaging to let people express themselves through the apparel. You can find them on the web at https://6-21-3-11.net/. They are one of many misophone-owned businesses you can find at Miso List.

Cory is an artist living in Long Beach, California, as well as a teacher.

Check out Cory’s art on Instagram at @artistcorybilicko. Plus here is the documentary Cory talks about: Sensitive  
 

This week I want to give a shout-out to HippoDog Creations, one of the many misophone-owned businesses on misolist.com.
