See a doctor for an official diagnosis🩺

I'm not saying you shouldn't do research on your symptoms. You totally should! That's how you figure out that something's wrong, and learn about coping mechanisms that can help until you can treatment.

However, it's important not to operate solely off of a self-diagnosis. It's all too easy to mistake one thing for another, and this can have dire consequences. Oftentimes, two conditions with very similar symptoms will have very different causes (e.g., a psychological vs physical cause) which means that they will have very different treatments.

For example: Misophonia is primarily neurological, dealing with how your brain is wired. But hyperacusis can usually be traced to a certain physical event that caused it, and can even be treated with surgery if therapy doesn't work.

Doctors are much more qualified to figure out what's wrong, taking into account not only the details of symptoms, but how they might manifest in different individuals. They are also more qualified to give you different ✨tips and tricks✨ to cope, and recommend treatments to minimize (or hopefully eliminate) the problem.

You deserve proper care! See a doctor - it can make all the difference.

- keep on feeling the love,
