Living with Misophonia and Misokinesia: MMC13's Journey on Sobertown Podcast

Knowing that there's a supportive community, knowing that it's okay and knowing, knowing that this is something, that this exists- I think that was one of the biggest weights off my shoulder- was to go: oh my god, I'm not crazy.
Imagine a world where everyday sounds and movements feel like an assault on your senses. For MMC13, this isn't just imagination; it's her reality. In this eye-opening episode of the Sobertown Podcast, host King13 sits down with MMC13 to explore her life with misophonia and misokinesia. These conditions, which translate to 'hatred of sound' and 'hatred of movement', have shaped her experiences from a young age, leading to isolation and contributing to early drinking as a coping mechanism.
MMC13 shares candidly about the overwhelming nature of these sensory processing disorders and the impact they've had on her mental health and social life. From the struggle to explain her condition to others, to the desperate need for understanding and support, her story is both heart-wrenching and enlightening. You'll hear about her coping strategies, like avoiding triggers and taking breaks to decompress, which offer a glimpse into the daily battle she faces.
The conversation also touches on intriguing aspects like the potential link between these conditions and hormone levels, emphasizing the need for more research and clinical studies. Throughout the episode, there's a strong message of empathy and the importance of community support for those living with sensory processing disorders. If you've ever wondered what it's like to live with misophonia or misokinesia, or if you're seeking ways to support someone who does, this episode is a must-listen.
Tune in to gain a deeper understanding and perhaps find some inspiration in MMC13's resilience.
