Freya and Mabel are two grad students at the University of Bristol, who did their final project on human-centered design practices to help cope with misophonia. There's a link below to the book they are making freely available which is a toolkit for incorporating misophonia-awareness into any design process. We also talk a bit about Freya’s experience having misophonia, and Mabel’s interest in misophonia, as someone who does not actually have it. This is a super interesting approach to studying misophonia and comes from the angle of how can the world innovate to better accommodate people with misophonia, rather than the usual research focus which seems to be around changing the person with misophonia.

I really enjoyed this conversation because it hit upon a lot of things I’ve been thinking about related to misophonia and possible roots in childhood experiences. Claire and I talk about her watching fights as a young girl between her dad and older brother, both very temperamental people. We talk about mental health not being taken seriously by her family, even at a very low point (warning to folks that there is some discussion of suicidal ideation). We talk about the effects of those experiences in her life now as an adult - some negative but some actually positive. And we end on a note that I’ve been hearing more and more about lately, and that is the appreciation for the higher level empathy that misophonia can give many of us towards other people’s feelings and experiences.

Elaine is an educator and reading tutor in the NY state area. She just found the podcast recently and was inspired by the Lisa Loeb episode to talk to her daughter about misophonia, because Elaine’s daughter also has it. In fact, it seems to run in her family. We talk about the family connections, we talk about her mother who was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, which had a major impact on Elaine growing up and right up to the time she passed. We talk about explaining miso to her husband, being triggered by some voices and consonant sounds, triggered by pets, being an HSP, how she told her therapist, and finally at the end she recites a beautiful poem she wrote about misophonia.

Season Finale of season 6!! I’m talking to Nate Johnson, who happens to be the son of Dr. Marsha Johnson, the godmother of misophonia, the original audiologist who identified misophonia back in the 90s. We talk about being the misophonic son of Marsha Johnson, being a guinea pig for many devices over the years, and I ask him, was his famous mom a trigger for him growing up? We talk about vagal nerve breathing, how his family does NOT eat together during holiday celebrations, his bad experiences trying to tell friends about miso, and we talk about his current life living in Mexico and traveling the world.

Part 2 of my interview with Kresta, a therapist in California who was telling us about her journey to what she considers freedom from misophonia and went over topics relating to trauma, the Internal Family Systems modality and brainspotting. Here we dive deeper into her personal journey expanding on what we covered in part 1, plus legacy burdens, seeing an energy healer, getting in her car and going on rage drives, HSPs, more details on brainspotting, and a lot of practical tips on doing parts work as part of IFS.

This is part 1 of my conversation with Kresta, a licensed therapist based in Southern California. Kresta is also a misophone, or was a misophone, she says she is now free from misophonia and this extensive conversation describes her journey, and many topics like trauma, going internal family systems, a modality she uses called brainspotting which was key to her journey, and many other fascinating topics. In this first part, we’ll get a bit into her background, we’ll talk all about the nervous system, internal family systems, and learn a little about brainspotting. In the next episode we’ll get deeper into her personal journey and the process that got her to not feel fight or flight anymore in the presence of triggers.

We discuss misophonia and comorbid conditions, her mental health journey which really began a few years ago, her experiences growing up in a very stable and happy home and her coping methods for miso along the way. We also talk about her music therapy program and the link to the documentary she mentions at the end is below:

Wairimu is a college student in Kenya. This was exciting because I think it’s my first interview with someone based in Africa. We talk about how she feels actually like she has enough agency on her life to keep her misophonia generally under wraps, we talk about ADHD, being in a large family where many of her siblings also have various triggers, her coping methods and just what the general take is on misophonia and mental health in her region of Africa.

Nola is a nurse in northern Alberta, Canada. She has had misophonia for over 50 years, but only learned it had a name a few months ago. She’s been on leave from her job due to a major depressive episode, which she attributes to years of misophonia wreaking havoc on her nervous system. We talk about dysregulation, co-regulation and attachment theory, epigenetics, EMDR, Gabor Maté, and even a shoutout to past guest and misophonia legend Dr. Jennifer Brout. Finally she, also reads from her poem called The Misophonia Fault Line.
