Licking your lips
Chewing gum
or any mouth noise
MAKES ME MENTAL
It feels likes a fork on a plate. Sometimes at school I want to run out of the classroom but I can't.
So I have to suck it up.
I am screaming in my head and I want to cry.
It makes me so stressed I can't concentrate because thats all I can hear.
I want to say.
"Do you really have to bite your nails in class???" "Do you really have to chew gum SO LOUD???"
I feel so out of control, I want to scream at the person "ARE YOU KIDDING ME???"
I know they are not doing it on purpose and I don't know how it doesn't bother anyone else.
Once I leave or the noise stops, I still feel irritated. It sometimes takes a long time to calm down.
People don't know I feel this way. I try to hide it but it's hard.
Sometimes I block my ears or listen to music on my phone.
I want to move my seat in class but I don't want anyone to ask me why.
Because what would I say??
I wish there was a medicine I could take to stop it. It's so annoying, I have a headache just thinking about it!!
I wish I could get rid of it.
My mom says there's a name for it.
It's called Misophonia.
