Description
Completely normal, soft sounds disgust Lisa and make her angry. She does not know what is wrong with her and her whole family is suffering with her. Then they find out that she suffers from misophonia and that she is not the only one.
Many people are affected by misophonia. However, they often only find out much later down the road that their problem has a name. It severely limits their social life and their search for help is not an easy one, because misophonia is not yet widely known among therapists and in the medical community.
Misophonia usually begins between the ages of 8 and 12. Lisa's story is a typical one, which you might identify with.
