I was interviewed Tuesday afternoon by Wendy Aron, a columnist for Psychology Today. Wendy is a professional writer and humorist that has suffered from Misophonia since the age of 10. Her blog, Sounds Awful, gives a personal perspective of this illness. Wendy also interviews professionals and other "Misophones". I am her first "misophonia parent" dialog.
Wendy and I found much common ground in our views of "Misophonia" , especially aversion to the "Mental Illness" label.
This is a link to the piece that was published yesterday:

As always,
We are a work-in-progress!
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: Misophonia, literally “hatred of sound”,[1] is believed[2] to be a neurological disorder characterized by negative experiences (anger, flight, hatred, disgust) triggered by specific sounds. This Blog chronicles our adventures with my youngest son who suffers from this disorder.
