Eating noise

[Marylieh]

Does anyone else get visceral rage from others eating or drinking noises? Its killing me...

[DefinitionReclaimed]

Not so much from people, but the sounds that my dog makes when eating can really make my skin crawl. Is that connected to ADHD somehow? If so, I never made the connection.

Hi there, I do not have this issue but from what I've seen, it's a bit common in the ADHD Community. The term for this is Misophonia. Here's an article from ADDitudemag

Thank you! Haha...

To the point where I’m ready to lunge at my husband when he’s standing around chomping on jerkey or cereal. I mean, I seriously want to just throw him across the room.

Omg saaaame i imagine jumping over the table attacking him and yelling: What are you, a camel??!! Sometimes i have to leave the room.

Oh, do I ever! Chips and ice chompers are the worst

[momofadhdkids]

Yes, the absolute worst. Even when someone is chewing with their mouth closed. 😖 my husband just swallowing a drink makes me sooo mad.

I feel you. You live the man, until he eats or drinks...

YES. IT DRIVES ME crazy! The sound of my dogs licking themselves is another thing that provokes straight up rage reactions. The sound sensitivity is like the major reason I don’t think I can have kids. Ha. I hear they are noisy.

Saw this pop up in my feed, lmao I've been thinking about this lately and wondering if it was connected because holy cow hearing animals lick themselves or people clear their throats over and over feels like nails on chalkboard to me and I get so tense. What a weird thing to deal with 🥴
