How to Help: Treatment Strategies for Misophonia

How to Help: Treatment Strategies for Misophonia
12:00 pm-1:30 pm ET Misophonia is a newly defined disorder with a high prevalence in the US (4.6%; Dixon et al., 2024) that is characterized by unusually strong aversive responses to certain sounds and associated cues that cause significant impairment in functioning and/or psychological distress (Swedo et al., 2022). Triggering cues are commonly oral (e.g., eating, lip-smacking, throat-clearing) or facial (e.g., nasal breathing, sniffling) but can include a wide range of other sounds made by others repetitively. When triggered, people with misophonia have a wide range of symptoms, including uncontrollable intense emotions (anger, rage, social disgust, or anxiety) and associated behavioral (escape/avoidance), attention (vigilance/distraction), somatic (heightened autonomic arousal), interpersonal (verbal aggression, inhibition), and cognitive (internalizing/externalizing attributions) symptoms.
