Misophonia sufferers

I'm not sure if there is a thread on this already or where exactly this would go.

I'm just wondering if there any fellow mumsnetters that suffer with Misophonia? I've suffered for as long as I can remember with this but only in the past year have i actually found a name for it. It would be nice to know what others peoples triggers are and if anyone has any methods to dealing with it.

My number one has to be people eating loudly especially crunchy things, I can't sit in the same room as people eating cereal, my dh and ds both eat cereal without milk and it is intolerable for me. I am desperate for there to be a cure/relief for this, as some days I feel slightly crazy from it.

I can't actually fathom how people can ignore certain sounds that get to me, it seems so alien to me as it causes such an intense reaction in me. Me and my dh have loads of conversation about it as I feel I'm a nightmare to live with. So am I the only one?Confused

Mine is getting worse :(
Of a night I need complete silence or I can't sleep and get really angry. My husband snores and breathes heavy so it makes me actually want to hurt him! My son eats incredibly loud and sleeps his drinks to.
Then in work with the general public and they all have little noise quirks.
So stressful to live with
