not sure why you are assigning a race or nationality to it, I have met plenty of people of all kinds who do this and the other around them find it disgusting.

Nearly everyone finds loud eating noises annoying. It's only "misophonia" if your dismay hearing such noises leads you to irrationally fear communal eating. You'd rather eat alone in the toilet than have to deal with what most would consider merely an irritation.

by Anonymous 1 year ago

Fear or anger, misophonia hits the fight or flight response. I definitely have it and I get very upset with myself when I hear a noise that is pretty normal but my brain interprets it as the equivalent of someone flipping me off. Brains are weird

by Business_Passion 1 year ago

I'll never forget going to a fancy steakhouse and there was a guy at a table next to us on a date, smacking his lips, chewing his food like cud, moaning, and talking about every bite of the meal with the type of passion typically reserved for lovers. It was so disgusting, but also made it a memorable dinner for me in the long run lol.

I don't think you have misophonia. It's not a matter of being annoyed at certain sounds. In my case, its not being able to process a cacophony of unrelated or discordant sounds. I can go to car races because the engines sound relatively the same, despite the decibels. But take me to a sports bar for example, and within minutes I have to get out of there before I get claustrophobic-type anxiety. I can't handle people nearby trying to talk over the TVs, TVs tuned to different channels and kitchen noise, all at similar volume-levels.

by Antonettawatsic 1 year ago

Dowmvoting because I agree. Absolutely cannot stand eating noises from specific people, so I know it's not a condition that makes all eating noises unbearable.

by Sad-Manufacturer-335 1 year ago

I hate having a radio on while I work but just before COVID hit I was working in an office with only two other people. The manager liked to talk to herself and the other one drank with loud gulps from a flask and noisily ate snacks all day, so when our manager suggested we got a radio I agreed enthusiastically. I even turned the volume up on a regular basis. When we returned to the office after COVID, the coworker who used to drink and eat noisily no longer did so. I suspect that as she had to work from home while her children were going to online school they complained so much that she finally learned some manners. She was close to sixty so it was about damn time. (The noisy coworker also showed up at least an hour late but left " on time" at least twice a week and if her sixteen year old daughter got ill she HAD to stay at home and look after her. It must be nice to be the manager's pet)

chewing with your mouth open is disgusting

by Herminavon 1 year ago

The second paragraph reads like you believe people with misophonia chew loudly. As someone with misophonia (manifests in me mostly as a fear of communal eating due to chewing noises), I do my best to eat quietly because I do not want to add to anyone else's pain. I would like to add that one thing that can help my misophonia from flaring is making the same sounds as the ones I am getting annoyed by (which I understand can really suck for the people around me), but if this is the case for the misophoniacs around you, maybe reconsider what you are doing.

by Anonymous 1 year ago

Not liking people who can't eat normally isn't unpopular. If you get ragefully angry just because someone is eating chips in the same room in a normal fashion, that is misophonia. My husband has it, and it's not remotely what you are comparing here. He can't sit at the dinner table with normal eaters because just normal sounds of people eating make him viscerally upset.

by Anonymous 1 year ago

I think the point is that the NORMAL sounds disgust them lol. That's what makes it a condition.

I actually can't eat pizza with my current roommate. When he eats Pizza (and nothing else) he makes this disgusting schlurping noise that's somewhere between someone drinking a milkshake and slurping a bowl of porridge like a medieval peasant.

It's only misaphonia if it causes you significant distress. I have misophonia and it has completely ruined my life. It has destroyed my relationship with my parents because I can't stand being around them, and so I can't spend any time with them and it has given me intense anger issues. I was completely fine before and then bam one day my brain decided to turn against me out of nowhere.

I'm confused... Nobody enjoys people slurping like a 90yo barely able to chew and swallow without making the noises of a clogged toilet. But to counter your unpopular opinion with another one, most of those who claim "misophonia" are the ones struggling to be around other humans and who need to claim suffering from a (controversial) neurological condition to excuse their lack of tolerance.

I mean, yeah, but there's a big difference between the sound of a covered and uncovered burp. Think like, the sort of burping in cartoons that causes lips to ripple. If OP can't handle polite burping, I don't know what to say to that lol.

I eat with my mouth closed, breathe normally, and am generally polite and aware of myself when I eat. However, I totally make "mmm mmm" noises sometimes when something is really good. I will never understand why my pleasure seems to really set a small section of the population off. Sorry you were taught not to express your joy, I guess?
