In this talk, we will explore how patients with misophonia, tinnitus, and hyperacusis can better understand their conditions and maximise the benefits of therapy. We’ll discuss what these auditory disorders are, common triggers, and their impact on daily life. We’ll also cover various therapy options, such as CBT and mindfulness, and emphasize the importance of active therapy engagement to achieve the best outcomes. Additionally, we’ll discuss practical strategies for managing triggers and incorporating self-care practices to enhance resilience.
