Book Description
"I will kill you if you bite that apple one more time.” "The way you eat is driving me TO-TAL-LY crazy!” "OMG. Stop it, stop it, stop it, please die!” Peculiar thoughts? Not for a misophonic. Misophonia has only recently been described by the medical world and is an unknown and misunderstood disorder for many. The extreme reaction to specific sounds, especially mouth and throat sounds can be life-disruptive. Worldwide, scientific research is scarce. A great deal is therefore not yet known. However, it is evident that misophonia is a real and serious limitation and often has major consequences for misophonics and their (working) environment. With this book Renske Schut wants to bundle as much information as possible about the disorder and treatment - as far as is known. She consulted scientists, specialists, experience experts and clinicians, and wrote 'More about Misophonia'. Experience stories of misophonics and their loved ones reveal the impact on various areas. With ‘More about Misophonia’ the author hopes to create understanding for the people who suffer from misophonia, but also for their loved ones. Renske Schut is a Dutch author and a photographer. She is misophonic and understands the feelings and problems that misophonia brings like no other. She also wrote the book ‘Huntington’s Hell’ (2016). ‘More about Misophonia’ is a translated and revised version of her successful Dutch paperback (2018). This handbook was featured in most Dutch media. Schut was also invited to the most popular Dutch late-night talkshow ‘Pauw’.

Book Description
Groundbreaking, comprehensive, and developed by a panel of leading international experts in the field, Textbook of Tinnitus provides a multidisciplinary overview of the diagnosis and management of this widespread and troubling disorder. Importantly, the book emphasizes that tinnitus is not one disease but a group of rather diverse disorders with different pathophysiology, different causes and, consequently, different treatments. This comprehensive title is written for clinicians and researchers by clinicians and researchers who are active in the field. It is logically organized in six sections and will be of interest to otolaryngologists, neurologists, psychiatrists, neurosurgeons, primary care clinicians, audiologists and psychologists. Textbook of Tinnitus describes both the theoretical background of the different forms of tinnitus and it provides detailed knowledge of the state-of-the-art of its treatment. Because of its organization and its extensive subject index, Textbook of Tinnitus can also serve as a reference for clinicians who do not treat tinnitus patients routinely.

Book Description
Compact and easy to understand. How does misophonia develop and what can be done to get it under control?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.

Book Description
Tinnitus and oversensitivity to sound are common and hitherto incurable, distressing conditions that affect a substantial number of the population. Pawel Jastreboff's discovery of the mechanisms by which tinnitus and decreased sound tolerance occur has led to a new and effective treatment called Tinnitus Retraining Therapy (TRT). Audiologists, ENT specialists, psychologists and counsellors around the world currently practise this technique, with very high success rates. TRT, the treatment developed by the authors from the model, has already proved to be the most effective and most widely practised worldwide. This book presents a definitive description and justification for the Jastreboff neurophysiological model of tinnitus, outlining the essentials of TRT, reviewing the research literature justifying their claims, and providing an expert critique of other therapeutic practices.

Book Description
Sip, gulp, gasp. Chomp, smack, crack.What if the sounds of other people eating, drinking, and breathing sent you into a fit of rage?This is a peculiar, yet real condition called misophonia, also known as Selective Sound Sensitivity Syndrome. Misophonia is characterized by a strong, negative emotional and mental reaction to certain sounds that are considered everyday or "normal." Crack, Smack, Punch is an autobiographical, introspective account of living with this life impacting condition that is not well-known, yet not as rare as one might think. The author takes an off-beat approach by interjecting poetry, humor, and biting sarcasm to tell the story of this perplexing condition that she calls "The Curse." She shares examples of the sounds that trigger this extreme anger, explores ideas about possible causes for the condition, describes the effects on her everyday life, reveals the types of coping mechanisms she uses, and conveys her opinions about the way it is currently being treated.This book aims to enlighten those who don't understand the condition and encourage those who suffer to speak out. As people tell their stories and share their experiences, misophonia will continue to gain awareness from social and scientific researchers and more effective treatments can be explored.IntroductionThis book is a journal of the thoughts, ideas and experiences of someone who suffers from Selective Sound Sensitivity Syndrome, also known as misophonia. If you know someone who suffers from this disorder or are curious about it, this book will give you a holistic picture of what it's like living with noise sensitivity. Misophonia literally means "hatred of sound." Recently it has been gaining awareness as a new psychiatric or neurological disorder that is rarely diagnosed. "Selective Sound Sensitivity Syndrome" known as 4S for short, is a sensory processing disorder which some believe may be caused by abnormal or dysfunctional neural signals and is characterized by decreased sound tolerance.The disease is not well-known and uncovering successful treatments has been challenging. Two neuroscientists coined the name for this disease: Pawel and Margaret Jastreboff. Jastreboff is a doctor who has researched Hyperacusis and Tinnitus, two other audiological diseases that have some similarities to 4S. Misophonia has also been compared to phonophobia, or sound phobia, which is a different type of audiology disorder.People who suffer from misophonia experience anger, rage, pain, disgust, or other negative emotions that are triggered by specific sounds made by humans such as eating noises and breathing noises. Typical trigger stimuli include sipping, chewing, gum cracking or gum popping, and certain repetitive sounds such as typing, pen clicking and nail biting. Certain visual stimuli can also be triggers such as repetitive body movements. When this sensory information is processed, the sufferer experiences anxiety with an extremely intense emotional desire to stop the source of the noise. It is often compared to the type of torture that most people suffer when they hear the sound of nails scraping on a chalkboard. The level of irritation and annoyance that they suffer from these normal noises is considered irrational, and so misophonia is sometimes categorized as an anger disorder. The emotional distress caused by selective sound intolerance may lead to depression, decreased socialization and reclusiveness. Sufferers often use headphones, earplugs and white noise devices as coping mechanisms.This writing is an honest revelation of the disease and the hope is that others who share it will not feel alone. In turn, as people grow more aware, perhaps researchers, doctors, audiologists, and therapists will have an increased interest in the subject and will spend more time researching the disease. The greatest wish is for a truly effective treatment or cure to be found.

You will get a glimpse into the phenomenon of misophonia. Our daughter is now 25 years old, we have always given her space regarding misophonia. What is described in this book has given us even more insight into misophonia. While reading this book I asked my daughter if she used to feel like strangling me. She answered in an affirmative way. But she could never say it out loud to the mother who was dear to her but whom she wished dead now and then.""I am the mother of a sweet misophonic son. Great book, gave me a lot of information. My son always has his supervisors and counsellors reading it.""This unique book covers everything you want to know about the condition, including stories of experience. Tips and tricks are shared.

We get along much better now she has more understanding.
