Summary: Everyone has their ticks. There is something that irritates everybody. Maybe, you hate large crowds of people. Maybe, you hate the smell of perfume. Maybe, you hate certain sounds. Do you hate the sounds of tapping pencils? What about the sound of heavy breathing? Or the sound of lips smacking while people are chewing? You may have something called misophonia. Misophonia is the hatred of human sounds. People who have misophonia may feel stressed, irritated, or enraged by the sound of smacking, chewing, breathing, or yawning. They may feel that people making these sounds are rude and don’t have any manners. They may need therapy to get over their misophonia. Others may need to wear earbuds to block out the noises.
