Menopausal rage plus Misophonia ; Aibu?

[Choclips]

Over the years DH has lots of noises , he can't help.
Due to a nasal allergy , he sniffs/snorts on a level to that of an extremely bad cocaine addiction. I have empathy and sympathy, really I do. But added to this today he has been running his tongue along gums and making a sucking noise AND making this wierd whistling noise when talking because he's talking lazily. I want to fucking scream 'please just stop with your fucking noises 'so much I could burst. I have walked away to contain myself. Aibu?

People have killed for less...

I understand. My colleague ate a huge bag of Bombay mix in the office yesterday over a period of 4-5 hours and I had to keep leaving the room.

My teen has (diagnosed) misophonia. I will put her in the same room as your husband for 5 minutes, and let her do the job for you!
Seriously though, this must be distressing for you. People can underestimate it.

Dieu How did your teen get diagnosed please? Is there then therapy /treatment? I'd better not let her in the room . She'd read into my eyes of mixed dispair and engagement. I visualise myself punching out like a middleweight, screaming like 'The Scream'. It's not a pretty sight.

Hi. Sorry for the delay - have only just seen your reply. She was diagnosed by the audiology dept at the hospital; GP referred us. She is only bothered by 'human' made sounds, so eating, breathing, snoring, etc. A leaking tap in her en-suite doesn't bother her at all! Plus, we have a really snorty, snorey dog, and she finds his noises adorable This is why she was diagnosed with misophonia and not the other one, hyperacusis.
No real treatment as such, but was given a sound box thingie, to help the brain tune into other sounds. She has also since been diagnosed with high-functioning autism, but the misophonia played a part in this too.

Hope this helps!

I think some of those sounds it would be reasonable to ask him to not do e.g. running teeth along gums.

I have tinnitus. The advice for that is to avoid focusing on it. Because you are paying attention to it all the time your brain thinks it must be important and makes it louder and worse.

So if you catch yourself thinking about his noises, focus on a different sound you can hear e.g. traffic or next doors kids. If there aren't any other sounds you can focus on, turn on music or a white noise machine and focus on that. Or failing that leave the room

I hate that white packing material beginning with p! Even the thought of it makes me shiver, my dd are the same. Ds and dh taunt us with it. They haven't yet realised that my thriftiness and love of a secondhand bargain is also a great way to reduce contact with it. Bad for the environment too. Not sure how that would help you but you have my sympathy!

My DH has lots of face noises as I call them, it honestly pushes me right to the edge. I'm heavily pregnant right now and more annoyed by it all than usual. Chewing, breathing, sniffing, sucking, coughing, burping... i can't deal with it. Chewing is the worst to the point I can't eat with anyone who makes a sound but DH seems to be getting louder. You have my full sympathy OP!

I've spoken to doctors about it and they've always said they won't refer and there's no treatment so it's pointless so just deal with it.
