Some people with misophonia have told me (Shaylynn) that they have tried therapies for misophonia that they felt made the condition worse. With that in mind, I have decided to run a poll to see how common this is. I personally wonder if scientists and clinicians should be using certain therapies if they are not helping long-term with the disorder. For example, what if misophonia is not behavioural and not cognitive? Then, where do we go from there when people have already been exposed to therapies that frustrate them, hurt them, or scare them off potential treatments as they come?
Poll - Exposure Therapy / Behavioural Therapy
