What Is Misophonia?
3. Oral Triggers?
Some types of sounds are more likely to trigger misophonia than others are. They also tend to be common sounds that we are likely to encounter on a daily basis. One of the most common of all triggers is the sound of somebody eating. It can make it difficult for some people to eat at the dinner table.
Other common sounds include those made by the hands and fingers. The sound of loud breathing and other sounds from the nose can also trigger an attack. The trigger sounds will nearly always have to come from a human. For example, similar sounds that come from a pet are unlikely to cause any discomfort at all for the patient.
