Misophonia is a strong emotional reaction to certain sounds.
Trigger noises
are sounds related to chewing food, swallowing, tapping, breathing,
lip smacking, nose sniffing, and other man made noises.
For each question please select one number based on your view about how your child is feeling now.
4. How certain is your child that she/he can carry on with their
day to day activities, relax, and enjoy life, without using any
distraction or avoidance strategies to help them cope with the
trigger noises? (examples of distraction or avoidance strategies
are: using background noise or making sounds themselves to cover
up the sound they find upsetting, mimicry, getting away from the
sound, refusing to go to or be in certain places, making excuses
not to go, covering ears, use headphones or ear protection,
telling people to stop the noise, etc.)
Not certain at all
(My child would not be able to cope at all)
Very certain
(My child would have no problems managing the situation and is
confident being in these situations)
