So, I share a room with someone in my college's residence. We do get along in some parts, but we don't get along in others. She often eats with her mouth open, and makes smacking noises and slurps when she drinks coffee and everything. I always put my headphones on, to avoid listening to her. Now? She's doing something worse. She chews bubblegum with her mouth open, and makes loud snapping sounds. I struggle to study or sleep, because the sounds she makes are so loud and they trigger my misophonia. I have spoken to her about it three times, and even explained to her that I have misophonia. The sounds are so loud that someone from afar can hear them. She claims that she can't help it, and she enjoys making those snapping sounds. How do you deal with such a person? Like, I am so tired. I am thinking of switching rooms at this point, and even ending the friendship I had with her.

Misophonia is the WORST! I am so so so sorry you're having to deal with this :/ I can imagine how painful it is from what you have written.

Honestly there is no perfect "fix" for misophonia. I spent a few hundred dollars and bought like highhhh quality noise canceling headphones. They help a lot. But not always.

In college I would use them in conjunction with a loud fan & white noise machine. But I still wanted to stab myself in the ears every single day. SOME ssris HELP but don't FIX.

Switching rooms doesn't sound like a crazy idea. To someone who doesn't struggle with misophonia, probably. But if you think this would help- absolutely do it.

NAC (a supplement) also helps slightly long term. My friends therapist told her to take this for hearing sensitivity with her autism. I have it a shot for misophonia. Similar effects to an SSRI imo.

I've heard a doctors note will allow you to meet requirements for a single room. I'd look into it.

It's not an experiment, but there was a case study published on Propanol, when taken properly, getting rid of the misophonia side effects. If it works his would end our pain and give us a new lease on life. I'm currently looking for a therapist to diagnose me and prescribe it to me. I'm not sure it'll work for everyone, but if it worked for a severe case, might as well take a shot.
