Setting Boundaries Part II: Determining Your Priorities
For people who experience misophonia, setting boundaries can be essential. Which activities drive you to get out of bed in the morning, which feel like obligations, and which cause you cognitive dissonance?
Step Away from the Routine
“Maybe we misophones were more effective nomads, moving on to a new setting every few weeks as seasons and resources changed.” Misophonia means being adaptable and accepting the unexpected.
“Triggers” use up your Spoons
“Dealing with misophonia is exhausting, and we may need more “me time” than most to recover from the noises and other stressors of our lives.”
Misophonia Bootcamp
Waking up every day knowing that you must prepare to fight your misophonia activators and prepare for the mental combat in your own mind is terrifying. But, that doesn’t mean the strategies to cope with it have to be challenging and dreadful in order to control your emotions in the midst of the overwhelming feelings that come with it.
Why you should keep a misophonia trigger journal.
